Neil Young was indeed mentioned, with some disputing his presence

I see a close connection to grunge & some of Neil's electric work.
Even if it might not technically be grunge...

My current opinion is--who cares, if you like the music...

I'd still include Neil

I only voted for Neil because I thought he was a joke option.

Anyone who says Neil Young influenced/started grunge needs to do a bit of research. It was influenced heavily by Black Sabbath and later Black Flag, and the first grunge band was either Melvins or Green River.

I think that others may need to do a little research too. Not directed at anyone so don't take this old man too serious!! Peace my friends! :wink:

I have no business posting in this thread at all.. because the OP's title said "for those that care", and I don't fit in that category. Sorry my friends . No harm meant! :oops:
