neil young

always been a little confused by neil's insistence on retaining canadian citizenship... other than just feeling like he is a canadian, even though he hasn't lived there for half a century. oh well, when trump is elected, he'll be sent over the wall with the rest of them.

Sad!

Pre-orders (you can guess sources etc)

"A concert fantasy"? Isn't it a pretty much standard concert film, with Road Eyes etc. for garnish?

Sign o the times, now that's a concert fantasy or at least a concert fiction

neil gets into a sleeping bag in the middle of rust never sleeps, that is the definition of fantastic

trouble in paradise!!!!!

Just noticed the other day that the picture on the inlay card in the reissue of Duty Now For The Future is a still from Human Highway.

Also--this has been pointed out before--but the Rust... movie isn't that rare. EagleVision has had it out as a (sadly non-anamorphic) DVD for years.

Wait at what point of the Pono backlash are we? I thought we were still at I-loved-it-then-I-hated-it-then-I-ironically-loved-it-then-I-forgot-about-it?

what is the stage where some dude makes a 'no smoking' symbol out of tape and puts in on a PONO shirt?

denial
anger
bargaining
pono sucks t-shirt
depression
acceptance

This is some post-structuralist shit I don't know if I have the brain power to handle

All the Red Hot Chili Peppers stuff is available on HiRes Pono now.

I couldn't think of a joke for that.

feel like there's a good faux kiedis lyric about pono, but i don't want to embarrass myself.

Pono
Listen what I say, oh
I got your Pono
Now listen what I say, oh

The more I see, the less I know
The more I like to let it go
Pono, whoa, whoa, whoa

Sometimes I feel like I don't have a Pono
Then I remember that i do have a Pono
I wonder could i listen to hi-res Yoko Ono
under the bridge on my Pono

(that's the best i can do)

Passion dripping from the PONO's eyes
He can taste the sound
An' sound never lies pale face die

true men don't listen to CDS

too real

anyway what does this t-shirt anti pono guy have against pono!

maybe you should read

And in April of this year, I traveled to Seattle to give a Pop Conference presentation about the enduring influence of Young's unfairly disparaged 1982 electronic album Trans.

#respect #trans4lyfe

the enduring influence! clearly i hang out w/ neil nerds too much, because i'm Trans is starting to feel overrated to me.

did u guys see that he played LIKE AN INCA a couple weeks back though! #trans4lyfe

xxpost

Yeah, Trans is like the Heaven's Gate of music--saying you like it at this point is no more radical or contrarian than saying that you hate it.

yeah, exactly ...
xp POTR's bongo guy gets to shine here #ponobongos #joelala

tyler - is there more synth stuff that wasn't on Trans? my only problem on Trans is that he clearly chickened out, I'd love to hear the existing synth/vocorder stuff alongside any synth stuff to hear the trv kvlt Trans experience?

like let it be...naked kind of? a re-do of sorts

i think these are the only real synth/vocoder numbers that came out (and then there are some remixes/extended things)

"Computer Age"
"We R in Control"
"Transformer Man" – 3:23
"Computer Cowboy"
"Sample and Hold"
"Mr. Soul"

I haven't heard anything else, though if I remember correctly "Razor Love" and "Hard Luck Stories" exist in Trans-y form.

this is supposedly the unreleased album that neil kinda merged with the Trans stuff

http://www.human-highway.org/pages/album/IITS.html

fuck synth razor love would rule so hard

yeah there's a description of it in Shakey, very intriguing

Oof.

Lukas Nelson turns on the TV in his Oslo hotel room, sees Neil in this CSNY doc (good comments from his instagram followers):

nufucius Is that Gallagher?

obviously neil vamoosed from streaming so unless you want to buy the #PONO version, this ebay seller has a great price on the Official Release 1-4 CD box set for your digital Neil needs, remasters of first 4 albums for $18 free shipping just went in for one

http://www.ebay.com/itm/131862668224

the remasters are fantastic -- self titled and everybody knows in particular.

agree on the s/t remaster, totally changed my opinion of that record

yeah i'm excited for "everybody", i've had it on vinyl forever but it's a really shitted up copy, pretty borderline for me to keep but i never bothered to replace it but noisy af

So stoked to get to hang out with my buddy Poncho Sampedro from #crazyhorse !! @ Hapuna Beach,… https://www.instagram.com/p/BIoFLcgjD_6/

these remastered CDs do sound great

been mostly into the s/t debut because I haven't really listened to that much before

it's funny that the s/t is the first collab between neil and briggs, and instead of it being this loose/sleazy rock n roll record, it's a fairly pristine pop-psych-folk record.

Remastered Time Fades Away, Tonight's the Night, On the Beach and Zuma out September 6

oh wow, awesome

wonder what the vinyal prices will be like :(

think i saw they would be slightly cheaper than usual for neil but still $$$$$
probably would be better off just buying originals! not like they're the most scarce records in the world.
