Neil Young appeared as a guest on Howard Stern's SiriusXM radio show on October 14.
During the 75 minute interview - which you can hear below - Young reiterated his recent proclamation that CSNY would never play live again, as well as his Pono digital music service, views on the Woodstock Festival and his upcoming new album, Storeytone. He also addressed his ongoing environmental concerns.
Iggy Pop has hit out against U2 for the way they 'gifted' new album Songs Of Innocence to all iTunes users – and praised Thom Yorke for distributing a solo album via BitTorrent.
Delivering the fourth annual John Peel Lecture at the Radio Festival in Salford last night (October 13), Pop said: "The people who don't want the free U2 download are trying to say, don't try to force me. And they've got a point."
I hadn't planned to write about the Necks show last night: plenty of other things to do; a review of Frazey Ford's album ready to publish; a sense that, after my previous reviews of The Necks, I didn't have much else to say.
