NEIL YOUNG ARCHIVES BOX: IT'S REALLY HAPPENING

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EDQyUqsCLXA

I know right

vuh mayo

or vim ayo I guess

I pronounce it like "video," but with an m.

mideo

xxxxxxp to alex - hmm, i'll let the guy know. i know he was having trouble with it before, but thought he had it sorted.

the pun only occurred to me after somebody mocked me for mispronouncing it like, uh, last year

POno poNO vimeeo vimayo let's call the whole thing off

So are these just going to be 24/192 wav files with weird DRM?

Neil is acting like he's invented something that already exists

if he managed to marry spotify to hdtracks.com that would pretty f'kn sweet tho

wait isn't he acting like he invented something that doesn't exist

haha yeah that's what i meant

is pono streaming?

i don't know!

pono is a mystery.

PONO will be 24/192, but with a constant, high-pitched sine wave tone on top of everything.

"Yep, that's what I'm hearing!" sez Neil.

haha yeah i was just thinking at his age and at the level of hearing loss he likely has, how does neil even know the fucking difference?

He admitted in Shakey that his hearing was permanently damaged during the mixing of Weld. Seeing as how that was 22 years ago, I tend to doubt his hearing has improved any since then.

pono for ponyos

I keep singing "Pono Arigato, Mr. Roboto"

i wish neil was field testing a strain of weed called pono that improves digital sound quality, his lyrics are far too earthbound these days

hey you guys

you guys

PONO

pono pono pono PONO pono pono pono pono pono pono pono pono pono...

nobody does SOUND like we do
nobody does QUALITY like we do
nobody does KPS like we do

I dunno, I kinda feel like hearing loss doesn't completely obliterate an appreciation for quality recordings. those recent swans records sound incredible, and I suspect it's not just because gira surrounds himself w/ quality ppl, and I can't think of a better poster child for hearing loss.

teenagers can hear frequencies old bastards like us can't, but I'm sure I've got a better ear for recording quality than the avg teen. having a discerning ear is an instinct, a way of listening that goes beyond frequency cutoffs.

a pono subscription is actually a ticket onto neil's boat. everything sounds better on his boat.

I've got a PONER for PONO

pono is better than porno, sorry i can't help that lame pun.

sine wave she is a pono

PONO NEVER SLEEPS

ponotrix point never

"Poo-nooo, there goes Tokyo ...."

pono for pyros

cool cover, still not that excited about this.

cool cover, though it's pretty silly we're getting another acoustic gig from that era with a lot of songs that have been duplicated on other releases

i guess there is a cinnamon girl on piano, i would hear that, but i will listen to it once on youtube out of curiosity

even the archives stuff we've been given past this period is still neil in country/harvest mode, right?

yeah -- dreaming man and a treasure.

i guess it's arguable that crazy horse is well-represented by live albums (live rust, weld, year of the horse etc), but there really shouldn't be two 1970 solo discs before there's one live 76 set.

maybe Neil likes that he gets paid more for the solo albums than having to share dough with the Horse

i want to hear some live horse

this is one of my fave 76 bootlegs - http://www.aquariumdrunkard.com/2012/09/24/neil-young-crazy-horse-fukuoka-japan-march-8-1976/

Cellar Door was so small (I saw a show there 9 years after Neil Young was there). Would have been great to have seen there. But yeah, more Neil with Horse would be better

yeah i've seen pics of the cellar door interior - easy to imagine seeing a solo singer-songwriter there, but realllllly hard to imagine what it was like to see Miles Davis' group there in 1970.

Odds that this will be included in Archives II? Good.

Isn't it outside the timeline for Archives II?
