Neil Young is celebrating his 79th birthday today. As a number of online tributes attest, he is one of the most acclaimed musicians of his generation.
Popular musician-singer-songwriter Neil Young (Old Man, Heart of Gold, ...) has always liked to keep a bit of himself hidden from view. At 79th birthday, he remains a man of many facets.
Young, a cultural icon
Born Neil Percival Young in Toronto on November 12, 1945, his career spans an arc over many different eras and tastes in Canadian history. Young's not just a great musician, he's an inspiration, an icon and a successful business man. At this point in his career, there seems to be little Neil hasn't done.
And we've got a feeling the next 12 months are going to be even bigger and better for Neil Young as he promises more to come. After all, he's only 79.
Happy Birthday, Neil, you're the best!
