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.

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

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 ...
― tylerw, Friday, 4 August 2017 18:08 (six years ago) link
yeah if they went back and put some sane prices on shit i'd buy a shitload of neil vinyl
― Universal LULU Nation (upper mississippi sh@kedown), Friday, 4 August 2017 18:09 (six years ago) link
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.

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.
― Jeff W, Friday, 4 August 2017 19:19 (six years ago) link
yeah, so good. i do wonder if there's a crazy horse version from that era in the vaults. i can imagine it, anyway.
― tylerw, Friday, 4 August 2017 19:22 (six years ago) link
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
― Universal LULU Nation (upper mississippi sh@kedown), Saturday, 5 August 2017 23:23 (six years ago) link
Volumes 2 and 3 of that series are currently scheduled to come out in two weeks. We'll see.
― grawlix (unperson), Sunday, 6 August 2017 00:46 (six years ago) link
Yeah, but they are also listed at £60+ making them over 15 quid each. Forget that.
― koogs, Sunday, 6 August 2017 04:46 (six years ago) link
That's insane. They're listed at $45 each on Amazon US, and I'm sure they'll be cheaper on eBay.
― grawlix (unperson), Sunday, 6 August 2017 10:44 (six years ago) link
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.
