 * 1991
 * 19 October 1991: (JP: "I'm going to play you eighteen minutes from an LP which I was listening to in mid week which really astonished me. I've been saying for years that really about the only person who's survived stardom and continued making interesting music, for me anyway, has been Neil Young, and I was playing his records millions of years ago when I lived in California and worked there, back in Buffalo Springfield days. He's made bad records and records that I've not cared for very much, but nevertheless he seems to be getting better and better and better. What I like about him is that you feel he can hear certain noises in his head that he knows are somewhere in that guitar and by God he's going to get them out of it if it kills him.")

 * Other 1990s
 * 24 June 1994: Over And Over (LP - Ragged Glory) Reprise
 * 08 July 1995: (JP: "I have to admit that I've never been really a great fan of Pearl Jam. I saw them supporting Neil Young in London last year, was it, or the year before, and I thought to myself, rather mannered pub rock. Having listened to all of the records, of course, dutifully, as they came in, I pretty much stuck with that, so I was thrown into a degree of confusion when I read that Pearl Jam and Neil Young were recording together, because I'm a great admirer, by and large, of the work of Neil Young, particularly the noisier things that he does, but it kind of comes off actually, as you probably know already, having tracks from the LP on Kershaw's programme, if nowhere else.")

 * Peeling Back The Years: Like A Hurricane
 * Peeling Back The Years 6 (Transcript) (1987): (JP: “He seemed to be unhinged in every aspect of his being. His guitar playing as well I used to really like – those long kind of shrieking guitar things, which weren’t heavy metal guitar solos at all. Again, instantly identifiable guitar player. And I went to see him playing at Wembley about a year ago and was reassured in that he wasn’t nearly as bad as I thought he might be from evidence gathered of seeing others of his contemporaries playing now, who by and large are awful. I mean, he is still good. Some of the stuff he did was a bit clumsy, but by and large there was enough there for me to come away feeling quite satisfied with his performance. But I saw him playing in a gig that he actually mentioned, so he must have thought quite well of it, playing in Hammersmith four or five years ago, and one of the great gigs in fact it was. Just everything fell right on the night as they say and he was particularly good then.”)
