I believe the answer to the last question should be one. The album *Neil Young* was released in 1968. *Everybody Knows this is Nowhere* (1969) has always been credited as with Crazy Horse. "Solo" means just that; there are no other credits.

FLMontabon- I hear you. I was unsure if I should answer one or two for that very reason. I said two because I thought I should not over think it. Still a valid point though.

AGREED!!!
I don't think this is nowhere was even released until 1970 but was recorded in 69.
