"Tired Eyes" is an incredible song, harrowingly sad.

Few albums are as emotionally raw and immediate as this.

I need to bump this to a 5. Been jamming BoxSet Vol 2 (1972-1976) on Spotify and I really enjoy "Raised on Robbery" from these sessions. Also I always forget and then get amazed that this was recorded post-Harvest and pre-On the Beach, but shelved and released after OtB.

Album Rating: 5.0

I should check out the boxset recordings.

But this album as it is, man...

His voice breaking on Mellow My Mind.

Nice rating Boney - this is still my only Neil Young 5 rating for now



A few on 4.5s/high 4s that might get bumped

Thanks Doof. First spin I thought this might be my least favorite Young yet but it has steadily grown, now vying with On the Beach for my favorite so far. This feels like it might be his most influential that I’ve heard, the distillation of country, rock, folk, and blues definitely presages a lot of what the alt-country bands were doing in the 90s/00s and some of the more ramshackle stuff (especially the last two tracks) kind of presage 90s indie rock.

I’d say the opposite Young album to this is ‘Harvest Moon’ but I really dig that one too

Album Rating: 4.5

I’ll get there eventually - I’m going chronologically through the 70s stuff and then will probably skip most of the 80s and pick up in the 90s, which I understand is his second golden age.

God, the guitar on "Albequerque" is so gorgeous. Everything about that song is really.
