I like Neil as well, but what has he done to compare with Love Sick, Not Dark
Yet, Covenant Woman etc. and thats not even going back into Mr Tambourine Man,
Gates Of Eden, Desolation Row etc.

hey hey my my.....Bob better than Neil? I don't think so. Maybe years ago, but
what about Bob? what has he done lately? Neil is still very strong and is
putting out as much,if not more, stong work. This guy goes all the time. Maybe
because I'm Canadian and a bit bias,but still......Anyway, both kick ass and
will only call it quits when they 6 feet under. Keep on rockin' Neil !!!
