“Dream Weaver” is a song by Gary Wright that was a hit single in the US reaching #2 in the Billboard charts while it reached #1 in the Cash Box charts, Australia, Canada and Europe in 1976. Taken from the album The Dream Weaver released the previous year – said by Wright to be the first-ever all-synthesiser/keyboard album – it features Wright on vocals and keyboards, and Jim Keltner on drums. The first all-synthesizer album was in fact Switched-On Bach by Wendy Carlos, in 1968. This song, and its keyboard introduction, may have been an early influence on Wes Craven for the concept behind A Nightmare on Elm Street. “Dream Weaver” and “Love is Alive” are sampled on 3rd Bass’s song “Wordz of Wisdom”. It was sampled in a 1990 Wayne’s World episode of Saturday Night Live, in which guest star Wayne Gretzky appears, and Wayne is picturing that song playing as he imagines himself defeating Gretzky in street hockey and then winning his wife, Janet Jones. The same song would also be used in the soundtrack of the 1992 film Wayne’s World. In 1992 Gary Wright re-recorded a longer version of “Dream Weaver” for the Wayne’s World movie soundtrack. In 1999, it was covered by dance artist Erin Hamilton for her album One World. It was also featured prominently in the boy/boy love story film Trick also released in 1999. Dream Weaver was also played in the ending credits for the film The People vs. Larry Flynt. The song appeared in the 5th season of Nip/Tuck, in the episode Dawn Budge II. In …

After Neil Young left the Californian folk-rock band Buffalo Springfield in 1968, he slowly established himself as one of the most influential and idiosyncratic singer/songwriters of his generation. Young’s body of work ranks second only to Bob Dylan in terms of depth, and he was able to sustain his critical reputation, as well as record sales, for a longer period of time than Dylan, partially because of his willfully perverse work ethic. From the beginning of his solo career in the late ’60s until the late ’90s, he never stopped writing, recording, and performing; his official catalog only represented a portion of his work, since he kept countless tapes of unreleased songs in his vaults. Just as importantly, Young continually explored new musical territory, from rockabilly and the blues to electronic music. But these stylistic exercises only gained depth when compared to his two primary styles: gentle folk and country-rock, and crushingly loud electric guitar rock, which he frequently recorded with the Californian garage band Crazy Horse. Throughout his career, Young alternated between these two extremes, and both proved equally influential; there were just as many singer/songwriters as there were grunge and country-rock bands claiming to be influenced by Neil Young. Despite his enormous catalog and influence, Young continued to move forward, writing new songs and exploring new music. That restless spirit ensured that he was one of the few rock veterans as vital in his …
