Waging Heavy Peace: A Hippie Dream by Neil Young

1.0

Even if you're Neil Young's #1 fan, this book is hard to get through. It contains nothing but totally random, incoherent ramblings and he continuously tells some of the same stories over and over. I was hoping to read this - not knowing a ton about Neil Young - and then fall in love with him and his music afterwards; like when I read Scar Tissue without knowing much about the RHCP and fell in love with that band. Not the case. Unfortunately this book is probably most interesting for those who love random musings about stupid cars. I'll revisit Neil's music in more depth once I've forgotten about this book. 2 stars because the story about Charlie Manson was pretty funny.
