Biography

Born in Cornwall, Ontario, Burn grew up in Deep River, Ontario and became lead singer/keyboardist for the 1980s Canadian band Boys Brigade. Following the dissolution of that group, he turned towards music production and solo work.

In 1988 Burn relocated to New Orleans where he would work with Daniel Lanois (known for his work with U2 & Peter Gabriel) on a number of projects. Their collaboration began with Burn playing keyboards and guitar on Lanois' solo debut record Acadie. Burn recorded again with Lanois for Bob Dylan on his acclaimed album Oh Mercy, and on Yellow Moon by The Neville Brothers and Living with the Law, which he co-produced for Chris Whitley.

Burn produced projects with Blue Rodeo, Emmylou Harris (Red Dirt Girl, Stumble into Grace), Midnight Oil (Breathe), Patty Griffin, Crash Vegas (Red Earth) and Patti Smith (Gone Again).

Like a Hurricane (Neil Young song)

"Like a Hurricane" is a song written by Neil Young in 1975 and first released on the album American Stars 'n Bars in 1977.

History

The song was written in July 1975 with friend and La Honda neighbor Taylor Phelps in the back of his car, (a DeSoto Suburban), when Neil Young was unable to sing because of an operation on his vocal cords. Driven by Young's trademark fierce guitars, the song became a landmark of the 'electric side' of his concerts. The song has been played on nearly every tour Neil Young has done since. It has also appeared on the compilations Decade and Greatest Hits and on the live albums Live Rust, Weld and Unplugged (this last rendition is played almost entirely on a pump organ).

An edited version of "Like a Hurricane" was released as a single on August 8, 1977, with "Hold Back the Tears" as B-side.

    Like A Hurricane

    by: C.C. Catch

    In the city of lost and found
    Mean it from my broken down
    You light the flame, light this flame of love, baby
    Dreams are made for you and me
    No one wants you if you'll be the losing guy
    Come on and take my hand
    Come on, come on and take my hand
    Like a hurricane is coming tonight
    Tonight my love is just on your side
    You break my heart boy
    My heart boy, tonight
    Like a hurricane is coming tonight
    Tonight my youngheart's beating, that's right
    You break my heart boy
    My heart boy, tonight
    You're living in a world of broken dreams
    It's your time to pull the strings
    You light the flame, light the flame of love, baby
    Dreams are made for you and me
    No one wants you if you'll be the losing guy
    Come on and take my hand
