Crazy Horse is an American rock band best known for its association with Neil Young, who they have backed on numerous albums and tours since 1969. They have been co-credited on a number of albums throughout Young's career and have released five albums of their own.
Following the departure of founding member Danny Whitten, Frank Molina and Billy Talbot had released two albums with a variety of other musicians under the Crazy Horse name in 1972. However when Whitten died later that same year they effectively retired the Crazy Horse name. They went back to work with Neil Young, and appeared on his albums Tonight's The Night (with Nils Lofgren and Ben Keith, as The Santa Monica Flyers) and On The Beach (among many other guest musicians).
In 1978, Crazy Horse released their fourth album (Crazy Moon, which features some lead guitar by Young), and also joined Young on the tour that led to the successful Rust Never Sleeps and Live Rust, both credited to Neil Young and Crazy Horse.
Young was heavily involved in Crazy Moon, adding lead guitar to many of the tracks, so that it ended up sounding much like a typical Neil Young album with the lead vocals shared between Molina, Talbot and Sampedro. With a mix of hard rock and country rock styles, it also featured appearances from keyboardist Barry Goldberg, violinist Bobby Notkoff (a past bandmate of Molina and Talbot's), pedal steel guitarist Ben Keith, and old friends Greg Leroy and Michael Curtis, who had both been briefly in the band back in 1972.
