Re: [bomp] Neil Young Admits Music Can't Change World

[Michael Snider <lasciviumdei@xxxxxxxxx>]

IIRC, a few years ago Neil said that if he was young
today he would've gone into independent filmmaking
rather than music due to music losing its importance.
So I wasn't surprised to hear him reiterate his
feelings about how music has been devalued amongst the
younger generation by technology.
