NEIL YOUNG ARCHIVES BOX: IT'S REALLY HAPPENING

yeah that one is great ...
probably mentioned above, but neil's people talked about these coming out separately
Four unreleased albums from this period are being rebuilt and will be available in the NYA Special Release Series. Chrome Dreams, Homegrown and Oceanside-Countryside are the three unreleased studio albums. Also from this period is the unreleased Odeon-Budokan live recording produced by David Briggs and Tim Mulligan. These albums initially will be released in vinyl from analog masters as they originally were created for that format.

sweet i hope they stick to that plan

or better yet can Bob Dylan's management and production team stage a hostile takeover of Neil's archives and handle it from here on out?

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Just then, his Samsung phone rings; the ringtone is his own voice shouting "Hello?!"

<3 <3 <3

Oh, man, what a bummer. If Neil is designing a website to play music, that means the internet is truly on the cusp of irrelevance. RIP internet.

holy shit

tyler do you know anything about this based on your recent writing/research etc?

cuz that sounds fucking amazing if true

though does this mean they aren't going to do physical stuff anymore??

Hm, he says you can "see" unreleased albums, but doesn't explicitly say you can stream them. It would be incredible, though, if he just dumped everything onto the site. And "associated...films and videos" would theoretically mean the '76 Crazy Horse tour...!

haha, yeah, pretty vague at the moment -- will there be things on here from 64-72 that weren't on the archives box set? i don't really know anything else.

can we change this thread title to "IT'S REALLY NEVER HAPPENING"

The Archives will be the town of Greendale recreated as a Myst-style video game where you must explore Greendale, talking to locals and finding clues to unlock Neil's music

please don't show neil Myst

I hope when this goes live there's a drawer that's just "Doghouse"

Welcome to NYA, the doghouse of my music

Is this before or after they fix the pono web site?

neil only knows.
in the meantime, this is back on the schedule -- https://www.amazon.com/Hitchhiker-Neil-Young/dp/B072JVDRWC/ref=sr_1_1?s=music&ie=UTF8&qid=1501870010&sr=1-1&keywords=neil+young+hitchhiker

glad the vinyl doesn't seem to be absurdly overpriced ...

yeah if they went back and put some sane prices on shit i'd buy a shitload of neil vinyl

I think it's been locked out of the market by the domestic reissue, but there used to be a nice official German press of Zuma that retailed for about $15.

neil has confused amazon, though. the status of my hitchhiker pre-order, which had today as release date:
Arriving today by 8 PM
Not yet shipped

special sedan delivery

Considering it's all acoustic I really like the energy of this OG "Hitchhiker" (the song), at least in its first two and half minutes or so.

yeah, so good. i do wonder if there's a crazy horse version from that era in the vaults. i can imagine it, anyway.

Neil has a very heavy downstroke/palm mute on/off thign on acoustic, he can get a real heavy feel to an acoustic song that no one else quite does

what's the difference between the cd archive 1-4 box set on amazon for £66 quid and the one i picked up in hmv this lunchtime for £13? (2009 remaster, hdcd it says)

I wouldn't think anything, I got a set of those for about $20 USD in eBay

Volumes 2 and 3 of that series are currently scheduled to come out in two weeks. We'll see.

Yeah, but they are also listed at £60+ making them over 15 quid each. Forget that.

That's insane. They're listed at $45 each on Amazon US, and I'm sure they'll be cheaper on eBay.

Vol. 2 (On The Beach, Times Fades Away, Tonight’s The Night, and Zuma) is $44.79 from Amazon US.
Vol. 3 (Long May You Run, American Stars 'N Bars, Comes A Time, Rust Never Sleeps, and Live Rust) is $48.24 from Amazon US.

I wonder if this is a live recording from the "Rusted Out Garage" tour?

browsing through this archive is a total fucking nightmare

classic neil

i love neil but this is what you get when someone who doesn't know anything about UI designs the UI
