Almost 40 years ago he made an ignorant statement that was based on the common and widespread ignorance of the time?

To be fair there were a couple of decent tunes on the Shocking Pinks record. Wandering and Fonda Wanda.

I enjoyed the shocking pinks tour 

In 1985, David Geffen and Neil were at loggerheads, which may account for this rant.

i'm never listening to harvest moon again.
