Definate 5. Title track is epic. The rest is killer.



Little story, went to see him in ‘88. I was in the fourth row, dead center.

He was doing an acoustic set, sitting at the piano.

“Any requests?”

I yelled out “After the Goldrush!”

“Nah, too depressing.”

Then the opening notes rang out on his piano…..

A highlight of my live music life! (And there have been many!)

Yeah my brain kind of wants the short tracks to feel more slight or unnecessary but both are very nice.

"some of the lead guitar on Southern Man is honestly not very good lol"

Neil Young distorted leads are as spastic as they are idiosyncratic, it's a love or hate affair

i've def said this before but i 100x prefer an unusual but emotional vocal performance like neil's than a standard boring one. without his weird-ass voice the song wouldn't be the same

Oh absolutely, I agree 100% with that. That said he does have some better “perfectly imperfect” vocal performances imo, if you get what I mean.
