3. The whole "Homegrown" versus "American Stars & Bars" thing was interesting

He's scrapped a few "almost there" albums, like "Chrome Dreams."

I also loved "Campaigner." In the 70s, I had collected a few NY bootlegs. He was quite engaging at that time, when it was just him and an acoustic guitar. One of the real revelations for me was his own version of "Flying On The Ground Is Wrong," which came out on his "Archives" set as well as the Buffalo Springfield box set.

There's also a VERY tasty version on the archive album with the International Harvesters, "A Treasure." Richie Furay sang lead on the original Buffalo Springfield track, and I have always enjoyed it, as well as his later work in Poco. But Richie isn't, and never has been, Neil. He doesn't have the same vibe or sensibilities.
