New Neil Young (with Promise of the Real) album coming Dec 1

From looking over the song titles, it looks like this one won't be as overtly political as "The Monsanto Years." Of course, I could be wrong. I've always preferred his politics woven into the music, not center-stage and in-your-face for a full album. That's just me.

after he dumped his long term wife to take up with a tall, blonde, less than half his age model (clearly for his money because, well, he hasn't aged well, and his body is nothing to look at, either). His wife may have been his common law wife.

He gave author Jimmy McDonough unprecedented access to his "inner circle." Then he read the first draft. Then he slammed the door shut. That's why the book flows in a nice chronological order and then seemingly stops prematurely, on a dime.

He's made great music, he's supported a number of worthy causes, especially as one of the founders of Farm Aid, and the Bridge School concerts.

Women, and relationships in general?

Don't read the book.
