Neil Young

ARTIST MAINARTIST INFORELATED ARTISTSLINKSREVIEWS

After Neil Young left the California folk-rock band Buffalo Springfield in 1968, he slowly established himself as one of the most influential and idiosyncratic singer/songwriters of his generation. Young's body of work ranks second only to Bob Dylan in terms of depth, and he was able to sustain his critical reputation, as well as record sales, for a longer period of time than Dylan, partially because of his willfully perverse work ethic. From the beginning of his solo career in the late '60s until the late '90s, he never stopped writing, recording, and performin...[more]

 

 

VINYL FORMAT. In early 2007, Neil Young's Live at Massey Hall 1971 flashback debuted on the Pop chart at number six, a stunning success for an archival release. Now greet the arrival of Sugar Mountain - Live at Canterbury House 1968, another singular installment in the continuing Neil Young Archives Performance Series. On this set, recorded in Ann Arbor, MI, November 9-10, just days before the release of Young's self-titled solo debut, one of the greatest singer-songwriters in rock history is   [ read more ]

VINYL FORMAT. Released early in 2000, Silver and Gold is a masterpiece of sparse, melancholic folk music. While stand-out tracks "Silver and Gold" and "Razor Love" actually date from the late '80s, they are presented in beautiful form here between the up-beat, country twang of tracks like "Daddy Went Walkin'" and the distinctly more meditative, heart-breaking sounds of "Without Rings." Highly recommended!

VINYL FORMAT. Since Prairie Wind is a return to the soft, lush country-rock sound of Harvest; since Neil Young suffered a brain aneurysm during its recording; since it finds the singer/songwriter reflecting on life and family in the wake of his father's death; and since it's his most cohesive album in a decade, it would seem that all these factors add up to a latter-day masterpiece for Young, but that's not quite the case. Prairie Wind manages to be less than the sum of its parts and th   [ read more ]

VINYL FORMAT. A concept album about an extended family in the small town of Greendale and how they were torn apart by murder.

As Young says in the liner notes, these are things 'you can't tell by listening to the songs, you have to listen to the instrumentals to get this,' and while that is meant to apply to one of the many Crazy Horse-fuel   [ read more ]

VINYL FORMAT. Import. "Having apparently exorcised his demons by releasing the cathartic Tonight's the Night, Neil Young returned to his commercial strengths with Zuma (named after Zuma Beach in Los Angeles, where he now owned a house). Seven of the album's nine songs were recorded with the reunited Crazy Horse, in which rhythm guitarist Frank Sampedro had replaced the late Danny Whitten, but there were also nods to other popular Young styles in "Pardon My Heart," an acoustic song that would have fit   [ read more ]

VINYL FORMAT. On 180 gram vinyl! Comes housed in a gatefold sleeve. Rock and Roll Hall of Famer Neil Young is stirring things up again. This time he is rolling on down the road not only with an auto-centric concept album but with his own electric ride. Fork In The Road, whose largely eco-car-themed songs he debuted in concert during the past year, will get a promotional push from the 1959 Lincoln Continental Young has converted to hybrid technology and which he plans to drive to Washington D.C.    [ read more ]

VINYL FORMAT. Import. "Neil Young's most popular album, Harvest employs a number of jarringly different styles. Much of it is country-tinged, although there is also an acoustic track, a couple of electric guitar-drenched rock performances, and two songs on which Young is accompanied by the London Symphony Orchestra. But the album does have an overall mood and an overall lyric content, and they conflict with each other: the mood is melancholic, but the songs mostly describe the longing for and fulfill   [ read more ]

VINYL FORMAT. Import. "...much of After the Gold Rush consisted of country-folk love songs, which consolidated the audience Young had earned through his tours and recordings with CSNY; its dark yet hopeful tone matched the tenor of the times in 1970, making it one of the definitive singer/songwriter albums, and it has remained among Young's major achievements." - All Music Guide

VINYL FORMAT. Neil Young's Southern Man, articulates a marked disgust with the reactionary and inherently racist tendency of regional nationalism. Everyone is familiar with the alleged animosity between Young and Alabama's Lynyrd Skynyrd over the blatantly condemnatory articulation of the South's almost fascistic obsession with local heritage, blood & soil, the completely fallacious belief in a national story, a legacy of firm local traditionalism that fuels so much of the racism in the south.
