Neil Young’s Powderfinger has everything I want in a song. Rust Never Sleeps is a rich album to consume with so many great tracks but this may be my favorite. The song has an interesting history – it took Neil Young 8 years to right, and if not for a horrible accident, we all might know it as a Lynyrd Skynyrd song.
That boat’s still coming, too.
