neil young

man..."Birds" got to me a litte

The 91 Buffalo show we watched last night was so awesome, I know Weld like the back of my hand but it was still so awesome to see & hear this, man what amazing era and man that "Like A Hurricane" whew..

Also am I reading the incredible hard to figure out Neil website correctly? Are they screening In A Rusted Garage on Saturday?

it does look that way! crazy. that'll be so good.

oh wait "Rusted Garage" is that 1986 Crazy Horse show (which has been played once or twice already). I thought it was "Rust Bucket," the late '90 show (which hasn't shown up yet) ... so much Rust. Guess he's premiering "Country Home" from Rust Bucket tomorrow though.

Buffalo show was so good. wild that the band was pretty much peaking, 20 years in. not sure if any of the other classic rockers even came close.

Are these online screenings live/one and done? Like, scheduled and in rotation? If you miss one can you catch it again?

i like how the back button on the NYA website (the literal back button, not part of the browser but part of the website) will take you back to your google search

it is a goofy website.
and yeah, generally, the videos are up for a day or a weekend ... but then they will get replayed later usually. a little bit annoying that way, but that's neil.

i feel like the website is an ongoing long con designed to get me to purchase an actual file cabinet from Neil Young, stuffed with real folders, for $800 or whatever

Neil's List

Reminds me of his auction where it seemed like 95% of the lots where model trains, shirts, and studio gear like compressors and tape decks.

finally, you can explore the archives as they were always intended to be experienced - in full analog quality, printed on HD paper from 80% recycled materials

as a subscriber I love that the Android app is totally broken

PIECE OF APP!

lol

Putting the song itself aside, this is inadvertently hilarious--skip forward to 2:40.

so I guess the Horse is all quarantining together?

For the last few weeks I've been getting Jimmy McDonough as a suggested friend on Facebook (we have a mutual). It's kinda surreal to see his account on the list sandwiched between irl friends' S.O.'s that I don't know well and people I don't care about from high school.

I didn't realize that was an update of an old song when I posted--I don't have Colorado. Now that I've played it, I would charitably say it's not especially good.

What's the over/under on Neil scrapping all of these upcoming releases for a Coronavirius inspired concept album with Promise of the Real called Handwashing?

He put all releases on old while he works on his own line of masks: "The N95 mask only blocks about 95 percent of particles that are 0.3 microns in size or larger", said Young. "My new PonoMask will block 99.7%, plus you'll be able to really feel the particles being blocked, the way the mask-maker intended." The PonoMask will retail for $295 and will require you to be logged in to Neil Young Archives at all times.

Did Neil tweet something out last night about NY & the Blue Notes vers of "60-0" streaming on the Archives? I swear I saw it last night but now I can't seem to find any record of it and, again, the archives website is most fucking frustrating thing in the world, I couldn't find anything there either.

If this is all a hallucination it is the most on-brand hallucination ever

Well well well

lol jesus christ neil — focus on getting these other things out first.
there was an excerpt "sneak preview" of a studio bluenotes 60 to Zero up for a day or two — interesting because it shared some lyrics with "ordinary people."
btw i've heard Homegrown.

woah how is it??

btw found this, 20 minute acoustic Sixty to Zero on the 88 Bluenotes tour pretty amazing, love the spacy pedal steel breakdown

still more alternative lyrics

Tyler come back

Neil's got him!

Posted in the Archives thread but oooh boy the song he released today off of Homegrown sounds so good

I'm so excited for this

Homegrown does not disappoint — definitely a worthy addition to Neil's mid-70s canon, but also pretty different from the other ditch LPs. It rules.

Oh man excellent. Is there a full track list yet?

According to my FB wall, Everybody Knows was released 51 years ago today.

damn levon! was going to ask if that was Kenny Buttrey on Try

are Homegrown and Star of Bethlehem the exact same versions from Stars n Bars?

Wikipedia says "Homegrown" was re-recorded for Stars n Bars

"Star of Bethlehem" is such a perfect little song. Thanks for putting that track list up Tyler, I appreciate it.

The Stars'n'Bars "Homegrown" is a Crazy Horse recording too.

Neil Young - narration, wine glass, piano strings

oh hell yeah

yeah, i'm looking forward to that!

a simple yet deceptively complicated question from my partner, just now:

why is he releasing this now?

looool

"nobody knows"

yeah, i just laughed. i mean, it's a a great question! and i think the answer ultimately comes down to "that's neil", but it's hard to explain

"love is a rose", "little wing" and "star of bethlehem" are roughly the same versions that have been released already — slightly different mixes maybe. the rest is all previously unheard/un-bootlegged. suffice to say, if you like neil young's albums from the 1970s you're going to love Homegrown.

Cannot wait to hear this in full. I genuinely didn't expect this much of it to be previously unheard!

Isn't the lyric of "Florida" included in the Tonight's The Night inserts?
