He has recorded as a solo artist, as a member of a hard rock trio, and with numerous other musician configurations. He can move from the soft sounds of early 1970s acoustic folk to the distorted, fuzz guitar sound of Crazy Horse. And his compositions have responded to musical trends from punk rock to grunge, and to social issues like racism, the Vietnam War, and the war in Iraq as well. \u003ci\u003eThe Words and Music of Neil Young\u003c\/i\u003e follows the evolution of Young's musical work from the late 1960s to the present, with special focus on the enduring elements that have made his music successful. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eIndividual chapters cover Young's musical output album by album, and song by song--from his debut work with Buffalo Springfield, to his time with Crosby, Stills, Nash \u0026amp; Young, to his solo work within various genres and for various causes (some political, but all artistic). In his conclusion, author Ken Bielen sums up Neil Young's accomplishments and places his work in the context of contemporary culture.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eKen Bielen\u003c\/b\u003e is Director of Grants Management at Indiana Wesleyan University for the College of Adult and Professional Studies and the College of Graduate Studies.
