Neil Young & Crazy Horse - Ragged Glory POLL

Love and only Love is a favourite, but the Weld version beats the album version.

Oh fucking fuck, meant to vote for "Love and only Love," voted for "Love to Burn."

Does anyone (Tyler...) know of any live recordings of this period where Love and only Love explodes like it does on Weld?

(sorry for derail)

Poll options should have included "Don't Spook the Horse."

after watching Neil and the Horse open the show with a fifteen minute fucking JAM on "Love and Only Love", that's got to be the choice. Song has been stuck in my head for the last two weeks

The fact that they're opening their shows with that makes me wish I'd gotten tickets to the current tour.

fwiw, when I saw them in '91, there was no extended coda on "Love and only Love" like there is on Weld. But it was pretty early in the tour.

Went with "mansion on the hill". That chorus is chilling for some reason.

1st verse too

I like the earthquake story.

saw Neil @ bridge school benefit last night. love & only love was a great opener for a sublime but only 40 minute "acoustic" set. Neil was sure in a good mood though. between that and over & over for me

"Over & Over" right now, but "Country Home", an oldie but goodie, brings it too

It's kind of amazing/baffling how Neil would hold back such amazing songs as "Country Home" while re•ac•tor was sitting, waving frantically "Hey! Hello? Any decent material you can throw my way? Uh...little help?"

Automatic thread bump. This poll is closing tomorrow.

35 minutes on Side A. Lots of music for 1 LP.

voted country home, but i think i like/love pretty much everything here. even natural anthem. speaking of which, here's the un-overdubbed live version:

i used to have this whole set on tape, not sure where it is now. kind of cool, all blown out solo electric stuff.

Voted "Love and Only Love", but this really is an absurdly great record. I have no problem with the last track other than its feeling out of place, like "Baby, What You Want Me to Do" on Broken Arrow.

Love and Only Love. This is a great Neil-era - lining up the VHS rip of Weld on a Saturday morning has become a kind of new tradition for me.

Only track I skip is "Farmer John," which I bet some people love, but those background vocals are just too much, even for me. Kinda unbearable.

Automatic thread bump. This poll's results are now in.

lol quite a margin there

My kingdom for an eyeroll emoticon! That song's good, but not even in the top 5 on this record. Cmon, you guys. Jeez. The rest look about right, except, I say again, "Days That Used To Be" is the sleeper on this album.

It had to be.
Although if he'd called it , say,"Messin' up" it would not have had the same bite

pretty heartwarming to see every song get at least one vote

Love
and only Love

dogs that lick
and dogs that biiiite!

Part of what makes that song work is the match between composition and performance. I’d live to hear a muzak version

Wonder if Neil has ever played Cinnamon Girl > F#%*in Up in concert...it’s like romantic love being violently disrupted by the inevitable mistakes of the narrator. And musically in the same key with the same chords
