尼尔•杨，加拿大国宝级摇滚音乐家，以个人及CSNY、“水牛春田”等著名乐团成员的身份活跃于乐坛。他创作了大量经典歌曲，其音乐风格跨越民谣、乡村、民谣摇滚、硬摇滚、电子乐等。

作为屹立摇滚乐坛近半个世纪不倒的常青树，杨广泛而深刻地影响了几代摇滚乐听众，成为摇滚乐的一大象征。杨也是为数不多迄今仍保持旺盛创作精力的摇滚老将之一。他曾两度入驻“摇滚名人堂”。“摇滚名人堂”赞誉其为“摇滚史上最伟大的词曲作者和表演者之一”。

An iconic figure in the history of rock and pop culture (inducted not once but twice into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame), Neil Young has written his eagerly awaited memoir: 'I felt that writing books fit me like a glove; I just started and I just kept going'. Young offers a kaleidoscopic view of his personal life and musical career, spanning his time in bands like Buffalo Springfield, Crosby, Stills & Nash and Crazy Horse; moving from the snows of Ontario through the LSD-laden boulevards of 1966 Los Angeles to the contemplative paradise of Hawaii today. Candid, witty and revealing, this book takes its place beside the classic memoirs of Bob Dylan and Keith Richards.
