Description: Fred Neil’s *Bleecker and MacDougal* cover catches him mid-stride on a gray Greenwich Village day, framed by the narrow sidewalk and old brick storefronts at 184 Bleecker Street. In 1965, this stretch of the Village was the humming crossroads of folk, blues, and the early stirrings of psychedelia, and Neil—mentor to a young Tim Buckley and hero to countless coffeehouse singers—was one of its deepest, smokiest voices. Standing here today, you can almost hear the rumble of his baritone under the street noise, echoing from basement clubs and tenement windows. This corner is one of the featured stops in the MusicRoadTrip.com App.
