Neil wrote terrific pop songs with a sophistication that NO OTHER pop/songwriter at the time possessed, indeed, his use of sophisticated chords was not matched by The Beatles, and then he came back-in the early 70s -and wrote some classic, sensitive singer/songwriter material. "Solitaire" is a fabulous song.
   Indeed, had Neil had the looks of Elvis, and not such a high - but fantastic - voice, his reputation would be much higher.
