Rock musician NEIL YOUNG

2: Rock musician NEIL YOUNG. In 66' he joined L.A. rock band Buffalo Springfield; they split up 3 albums later due to inter-band fighting and their lack of commercial success. YOUNG then meandered from band to band, including "Crosby, Stills, Nash, and Young," while doing a lot of solo work as well. He's been called the "Godfather of Grunge," and "The King of Punk." (REBROADCAST, Originally aired 11/5/92) Rock musician FRANK ZAPPA, who died in 1993. For more than 20 years, Zappa made rock and roll music that was in turn funny, gross, esoteric, satirical, and danceable. (REBROADCAST, Originally aired 6/6/89) .
