I found legions of websites discussing the question of why people think Neil Young wrote/recorded Horse with No Name, and of course other websites which believe that he did.

So, the question is, does anyone on PT have proof positive that NY recorded HWNN? Is anyone in possession of such a recording?
I always thought that it was Neil Young~~~!!

wow, I looked that up too, and read a small article about the controversy . Maybe, "America" was inspired by "Crosby, Sills, Nash and Young.

Here's the link I read, maybe you saw the same one.http://www.accessbackstage.com/america/song/song005.htm
