He had a transistor radio, white bucks, a nice sweater, black pants. Very slick- lookin' guy."—Comrie Smith, Young's teenage friend.

During the mid- fifties, Young listened to rock 'n roll, rockabilly, doo- wop, R& B, country, and western pop. He idolized Elvis Presley and later referred to him in a number of his songs.[2.

Chuck Berry, Hank Marvin, Little Richard, Fats Domino, The Chantels, The Monotones, Ronnie Self, the Fleetwoods, Jerry Lee Lewis, Johnny Cash, Roy Orbison and Gogi Grant. Young first began to play music himself on a plastic ukulele, before, as he would later relate, going on to "a better ukulele to a banjo ukulele to a baritone ukulele – everything but a guitar". Young and his mother settled into the working- class area of Fort Rouge, Winnipeg, where the shy, dry- humoured youth enrolled at Earl Grey Junior High School.

It was there that he formed his first band, the Jades, and met Ken Koblun. While attending Kelvin High School in Winnipeg, he played in several instrumental rock bands, eventually dropping out of school in favour of a musical career. Young's first stable band was the Squires, with Ken Koblun, Jeff Wuckert and Bill Edmondson on drums, who had a local hit called "The Sultan". The band played in Fort William (now part of the city of Thunder Bay, Ontario), where they recorded a series of demos produced by a local producer, Ray Dee, who Young called "the original Briggs".

While playing at The Flamingo, Young met Stephen Stills, whose band the Company were playing the same venue, and they became friends.[3. The Squires played in several dance halls and clubs in Winnipeg and Ontario.[3. After leaving the Squires, Young worked folk clubs in Winnipeg, where he first met Joni Mitchell.

Stills' topical song "For What It's Worth" became a hit, aided by Young's melodic harmonics played on electric guitar. According to Rolling Stone, the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and other sources, Buffalo Springfield helped create the genres of folk rock and country rock.[4.

Distrust of their management, as well as the arrest and deportation of Palmer, exacerbated the already strained relations among the group members and led to Buffalo Springfield's demise.
