That's getting sig'd.

Troll or not, I want to make sure any credibility you might have had is buried. And with an agreement from US, the troll is confirmed.

I don't understand the choice of Neil Young vs. Bruce Springsteen. The two artists are completely different stylistically and have very little in common except they both began their careers in the early 70s.

Neil Young was even earlier.

Let me clarify my last post. I was more emphasizing that I think Bruce is a superior live performer. I thought it was neat that he just segued into that guitar solo, that's why I was talking about it.

But since you brought up guitar playing, yeah let's talk about that. Yes, I have heard Neil Young on guitar, but I do not believe Young's guitar playing is superior to Springsteen's. Part Man, Part Monkey I think is one of Springsteen's best examples of his skill with the guitar. Thundercrack, Worlds Apart, Atlantic City, and the acoustic version of Born In The U.S.A. I think put him over the top.

He may be superior, and I do hear that Bruce is about the best live show tie money can buy, but neil isn't lacking at all. Like Unknown said, just check any live film or album (Weld is a good live disc that I think may also have a film coming with it soon as well). I am sorry to have such a harsh tone before too, it was unnecessary.

In fact, I'd say that despite being really inconsistent, Neil Young is prolific enough that he might have fifteen or sixteen albums I really like. But I still had to pick Springsteen for his run of four flawless albums from Born to Run through Nebraska.

(Side note - these are my dad's two favorite artists.)

I own the complete studio album/primary live album/etc. discographies of both, so I do like Springsteen, but Young very easily wins this for me. Neil Young is a top 20 artist for me. Springsteen probably wouldn't be above #250 or so.

That seems a little unbelievable to me.
