  6. Neil Young night on BBC Four from 9:30pm 9:30 - Neil Young In Concert: Footage of the singer-songwriter from 1971, featuring songs that were eventually to feature on Young's classic album Harvest, including Heart of Gold, A Man Needs a Maid and Old Man. 10:00 - Neil Young - Don't Be Denied: Neil Young grants rare and unprecedented access to the BBC for a documentary in which he traces his musical journey in his own words. The film was made from three hours of interview shot in New York and California and utilises previously unseen performance footage from the star's own extensive archives. It also features cohorts Stephen Stills, Graham Nash, David Crosby, Nils Lofgren and James Taylor. From his early transcontinental American quest for recognition, through the first flush of success with Buffalo Springfield to the bi-polar opposites of mega-stardom with Crosby, Stills and Nash and the soulful rock of Crazy Horse, Young's career has enjoyed many guises. Perhaps his most famous period was as a 1970s solo artist making albums that became benchmarks. After The Goldrush, recorded in his Topanga Canyon home, and Harvest, part-recorded on his northern Californian ranch, saw Young explore the confessional side of song-writing. But never one to rest on his laurels, he would continually change direction. In the mid-Seventies, two of Young's closest friends died as a result of heroin abuse. What followed was music's answer to cinema verite, with Tonight's The Night a spine-chilling wake for his dead friends. As New Wave arrived, Young was keen to explore new ideas. A collaboration with Devo on what became his art-house epic, Human Highway, saw the genesis of Rust Never Sleeps, a requiem for the Seventies. In the Eighties, Young explored different genres, from electronica to country and in recent times he has returned to Crazy Horse and Crosby, Stills and Nash, but only when it has suited him. The film ends with Young still refusing to be denied, on tour in the USA with CSNY, playing anti-Bush songs to a Republican audience in the South. 11:00 - Deja Vu: In 2006, the Iraq War was the flashpoint of the upcoming US election, a subject which divided the country. 1960s supergroup Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young, who campaigned against the Vietnam War, hit the road again to bring their anti war message to a new generation.

  15. the vid of that is amazing! genuis stuff! think it might have been verona or lazio fans who had all travelled to milan on their scooters for the game and with regards of the rangers game ive shifted from my usual seat to the south. want to see more of the game this time and atmosphere in south should be top notch for it. hopefully a tasty game. anyone who says we have nothing to play for must be joking! stopping the current buns winning the title at our home should be enough motivation esp for zander and maguire
