Escape the summer heat with this colourful, six-part portrait of the legendary Canadian singer-songwriter Neil Young. The musical force behind classic songs like "Heart of Gold" and "Helpless," and some of the most exquisitely crafted albums in the history of rock, Young has left an indelible imprint on our pop cultural landscape and built a prolific career. Employing dynamic song and film clips, and the astute critical and scholarly analysis that have made him a Curious Minds favourite, Dr. Mike Daley returns to guide us through Young’s storied career—and celebrate the joyous music that has kept generations of fans “Rockin’ in the Free World.”

Led by Dr. Mike Daley (Leonard Cohen: Words and Music; The Toronto Sound; The Beatles and their World), a music historian and professional musician who has taught at Guelph, McMaster, Waterloo and York Universities.
