100 Greatest Neil Young Songs (Rolling Stone)

One of the most popular Spotirama posts is about the Top 50 Neil Young songs compiled by british magazine Mojo in 2011. Now it's time to double it, literally. Last january Rolling Stone published a Neil Young Special Collector's Edition issue, including a Top 100 of his songs. Here it comes, in all its Spotify splendour.

Some trivia, before pushing the play button:

• In the top 20 the two charts are quite similar: even if in different positions, 15 songs are the same. 
• Both include Buffalo Springfield and CSNY songs. 
• While After the Gold Rush album is the most present album in the Mojo chart, in Rolling Stone's Top 100 it stops at #3 (6 songs in the playlist), after Harvest and Tonight's the Night (both with 7 songs).

Enjoy!
