it's weird, i guess in the neilyoung.com video you can see lyric sheets for such songs as “This Land Is Your Land”, “She'll Be Coming Around The Mountain”, “Oh My Darling Clementine”, “Oh! Susanna”, “Gotta Travel On (Done Laid Around)”, “Gallows Pole”... all of which seem like pretty bizarre songs for crazy horse to be playing.
― tylerw, Tuesday, 31 January 2012 23:49 (twelve years ago) link
I could totally hear CrazyHorse jamming out on all of those! Simply, folkie songs with dark undercurrents? Sounds like the right equipment necessary for Neil to do business. Nevermind that we learned them in kindergarten. If they drop that on us, I bet it'll be haunted and raging.

They're also public domain. It could be that those shots were re-takes, the original shots being yet-to-be-published new Neil songs.

Forgive me for thinking that sounds way less fun than a thomping, fuzz-stricken "Clementine".

The group is already working on a second album together after finishing one called Americana, Young says. The new album, he says, "has a choir in it that sings with Crazy Horse. A very young choir of children. They're songs we all know from kindergarten, but Crazy Horse has rearranged them, and they now belong to us."
That assessment is consistent with the song titles seen in the video on Young's site, including "Clementine," "This Land Is Your Land," "Oh Susanna" and "She'll Be Coming Around the Mountain."

Neil Young And Crazy Horse to Release New Album Americana on June 5th
Neil Young and Crazy Horse will release their new LP Americana on June 5th. It's their first album together since Greendale in 2003, and their first album with the full Crazy Horse line-up of Billy Talbot, Ralph Molina and Frank "Poncho" Sampedro since Broken Arrow in 1996. The songs on Americana are all classic American folk songs, including "This Land Is Your Land," "Gallows Pole," "Tom Dooloey" and "Clementine."
awwwww MAN...:(

"Oh Susannah""Clementine ""Tom Dooley"" Gallows Pole ""Get A Job ""Travel On ""High Flyin’ Bird ""She’ll Be Comin ’Round The Mountain""This Land Is Your Land ""Wayfarin’ Stranger ""God Save The Queen"
awwwwww MAN...
Wayfaring Stranger is good?

lol, i dunno, if these are blown out crazy horse jams, then i can see it being pretty good. does seem like a weird way to reintroduce neil and crazy horse to the world, but that's neil for you.

Man that tracklist....well definitely the best record I buy this year with old susanna on it
how awesome would it be if the whole album was a fake out leading up to a 19 minute sex pistols jam?
― konybrony (upper mississippi sh@kedown), Tuesday, 20 March 2012 02:05 (twelve years ago) link
[x-post]Yup. The Airplane got it off Judy Henske:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vBC3cfDZbRo
It was written by Billy Edd Wheeler. In the mid-90s Neil wanted to record a cover, and had his office fax Henske a question about the publishing. Shortly thereafter, Henske saw Neil at a party or something, and she got in his face about recording "her song".

Haha, I saw that. I dunno, when it's time for someone to retire, it's usually because they've run out of ideas. Far from it, in Neil's case: he's just coming up with increasingly batshit ideas (which I am 100% on board with, btw).
― we can be gyros just for one day (Tarfumes The Escape Goat), Tuesday, 20 March 2012 03:34 (twelve years ago) link
Yeah, the thing about it being time for Neil to retire is so wrong, considering how absolutely fantastic (and not to mention, pretty much an entirely new direction) his most recent album was. Also, I thought the supposed concept record about his electric car was going to be pretty lol, but it turned out to have some jams on it too. Neil, please ignore the haters and keep on with your batshit ideas.

Read an interview (don't remember where, unfortunately) where Neil said there are TWO Crazy Horse records on the way, the Americana stuff and a set of originals, both recorded around the same time.

― willem, Tuesday, 20 March 2012 08:11 (twelve years ago) link
phew, because releasing a set of "classics" with a "new angle" on them usually means that the artist is "about to die"
― 1986 Olive Garden (Z S), Tuesday, 20 March 2012 12:02 (twelve years ago) link
sorry, not trying to be a neil hater, i'm just much, much, much, much more interested in the new material. (and i'll stop hatin' staaaaarting..NOW)
Neil Young has been doing classics with a new angle on them since he was about 16 years old.

― john-claude van donne (schlump), Tuesday, 20 March 2012 12:12 (twelve years ago) link
Neil was never destined to be Terrence Malick. From '68 to '83, the only year I can see where he didn't put out anything (if you count Journey) was '71. He's been marginally more sporadic since then. I'd put him in the Woody Allen category: churn stuff out, let history sort it out later. (Having said that, I'm 180 degrees from ZS--I'll never be more interested in what he's doing now than what he did between 1969 and 1975.)
