Neil Young’s little sister

Well, CD BABY gave a discription of “Ask for Angels” in these words:

“haunting and frolicking folk rock that makes you wonder if Neil Young has
a little sister.”

Here’s a true story that I actually wrote out for Neil when I sent him my CD recently.

When I was 13 years old, my best friend was Ann McCauly (spelling?). she was from somewhere in the states,..I think Alabama. We would hitchhike from my juniour high school in Toronto to her house for lunch and hitchhike back again. We would spend our lunch hours eating Oreo Cookies and air guitar-ing “Harvest”. I always hogged the lead guitar parts. I think we did this for weeks until some guy picked us up and yelled at us for hitch-hiking. But I fell in love with Neil’s music that year. Later in College, After the Gold Rush reminded me to stay alive in the midst of what was then a certain personal kind of hell. All this to say that I love this quote about being his little sister if he had one. Besides, I am the eldest of three so being someone’s little sister is just cool. Hm. Probably I am often my little sister’s little sister though…………….

rain peace,
Deb
