Rick James and Neil Young were once in the same group. What the hell?? While reading Rick James bios, I stumbled across this piece of information. Aparently, while on the run in Canada, Rick James formed the Myna Byrds with a number of other Candadian musicians who would later become members of groups such as Buffalo Springfield and Steppenwolf. The group went through a number of incarnations, including lineups featuring a young Neil Young. The group actually signed to Motown, becoming the first predominately white group to sign to the label. Songs were recorded, but an album was never released.
