Favorite Neil Young album

viewtiful_alan · 07.16.2008, 12:11 AM

Ragged Glory for me. Love to hear Neil Young show the new guys that he invented grunge and can still kick ass at it.
Features that great Neil and Crazy Horse guitar crunch that is instantly identifiable.
Over all a great album.

everybody knows this is nowhere

cinnamon girl, everybody knows this is nowhere, down by the river, AND cowgirl in the sand? unbeatable.

viewtiful_alan · 07.16.2008, 12:50 AM

Yeah...it really was a hard choice for me.
Ragged Glory was also my first Neil album so that helps.
But yeah, Everybody knows this is nowhere is probably tied with ragged glory for me...

Cantankerous · 07.16.2008, 12:51 AM

neil young is the shit. CSNY kicked ass too.

viewtiful_alan · 07.16.2008, 12:53 AM

Hell yes.
Neil Young is one of the most interesting (musically) performers I can think of seeing as he stays fresh and you never know what he'll do next.
Not to mention he's probably the best rockstar parent (no offense to Thurston and Kim but Neil really stepped upt o the plate with his disabled sons)

On the Beach for me, but I could just as easily chosen Rust Never Sleeps or After the Goldrush. I even like most of his newer stuff.

HARVEST is a close 2nd. TONIGHT'S THE NIGHT is 3rd.

radarmaker · 07.16.2008, 12:23 PM

On The Beach

Runners up: Time Fades Away, Everybody Knows This Is Nowhere, Tonight's The Night.

noisereductions · 07.16.2008, 12:37 PM

I actually really liked TRANS also. Not being sarcastic.

gmku · 07.16.2008, 12:38 PM

I can't say I'm a huge fan of Neil, because I'm not, but On the Beach blows me away.

Blows you away how? You mean, like a hurricane?

radarmaker · 07.16.2008, 12:52 PM

If the original Chrome Dreams had been released as in it's acetate form (basically side 2 of American Stars & Bars plus parts of Rust Never Sleeps & a couple of others), that'd be up there too.

noisereductions · 07.16.2008, 01:22 PM

AMERICAN STARS has its moments. I thought most of the "missing 6" were good.

Sheriff Rhys Chatham · 07.16.2008, 01:45 PM

I've only heard a handfull but I really enjoy "Mirrorball". It's more blues/rock with the electric guitars and all.

noisereductions · 07.16.2008, 01:58 PM

Mirrorball was the Pearl Jam collaboration. (If you didnt realize).

uhler · 07.16.2008, 02:22 PM

where's trans?

batreleaser · 07.16.2008, 03:08 PM

on the beach

dead man soundtrack is my real fave though

noisereductions · 07.16.2008, 03:10 PM
