In the meantime, apple….

[Copper]

The has-beens will make a few sales

The publicity is good for everyone

[jon-nyc]

Funny thing is, before the Spotify deal he was on every platform, including Spotify. The Spotify contract reduced his reach.

[Klaus]

I checked my Spotify account and all the Neil Young stuff is still available. Is that a regional ban only?

Who would be a B artist without the E Street Band.

[George K]

Interestingly, all of the tracks listed are either live performances, or recordings he did with other artists (Crosby, Stills, Nash).

If you try to click on a solo album...

I knew of him before E Street but I can’t remember the band’s name.

[Mik]

Grin maybe.

I'm a little disappointed by all of this. I can of course continue to avoid listening to Joe Rogan by not subscribing to Spotify, but in order to avoid listening to Neil Young and Nils Lofgren I'm going to have to not subscribe to some other providers.

Incidentally, Harry and Meghan are continuing to work with Spotify, whilst expressing concerns, so all those folks who don't care about the royals for hours on end should still be good to go.

Yes, I knew of him as well --- certainly gifted. I think he's being loyal to Young as he played with Crazy Horse (After the Gold Rush/ Southern Man). I shouldn't trash talk him of course -- even a B artist is amazing, just not anyone most people know about.

when i look at who uses spotify by numbers...

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_most-streamed_artists_on_Spotify#By_decade

i realize...that the masterpieces of rock music which i grew up with are all but lost to the current generations of kids.

i wonder, if 150 years from now,somewhat like Felix Mendelssohn rediscovering Bach who was also lost to memory in the 19th century, someone will wake up and understand that the baby boomer era music was truly masterful.

He started strong but became a little too apologetic at the end.

Is there a transcript? I fucking hate videos

[Horace]

"I've had heavily credentialed people on my show who say things against the narrative, but who were eventually proven correct, and I've also had people on the show who stick to the narrative. I don't mind being wrong. I'm wrong a lot. I want to know why people are sometimes wrong. I am a conversationalist foremost. I think that's my appeal."

[Horace]

By the way, his stand up comedy, IMO, is complete garbage. But I agree that his capacity for transparent and humble and relatively intelligent conversation is his appeal.
