LOS ANGELES, May 18 (UPI) -- Singer/songwriter Neil Young has been awarded the ASCAP Founders Award for his pioneering work spanning more than 30 years.
At the association's 22nd annual Pop Music Awards in Los Angeles Monday night, the Indigo Girls paid tribute to Young with an acoustic rendition of "Down By the River." He was also honored in a speech by former Warner Bros. Records chief Mo Ostin, who gave Young his first solo recording contract.
Young had no notes prepared for the presentation, RollingStone.com said, but said "It's great to be able to do what you want to do."
It was Young's first public appearance since his surgery in April for a brain aneurysm and he indicated he still wanted to work.
"My mission now is to go where no hippie has gone before," Young said. "And tomorrow, I go back to Reprise and give them another record."
