neil young

pretty bad, yes. but hey, Neil Young is alive and making music in 2017!
related, just wrapped a HUGE Neil Young writing project, will be exciting to share when it's ready.

Honestly I think the best song Neil wrote in recent years is the one about his Amazon Echo. Let's chip in and buy him a Nest thermostat.

Excited Tyler!

Also if he shelves Hitchhiker and puts out some terrible Promise of the Real

lolz that might be a possibility, ahaha.

he's the musician most likely to pull a Lucas and re-record the ditch trilogy w/PotR, saying "now it sounds like it was intended to", pulling all old copies off the shelf and replacing them with the new ones.

never mind neil's new song, here's 30 murky minutes of "Down by the River" in 1970. https://doomandgloomfromthetomb.tumblr.com/post/162630277837/down-by-the-river-neil-young-crazy-horse

Many XPs Yeah, he patched things up with Bolas back in the mid-00s, and they worked some of his albums from that time (iirc, Living With War, Chrome Dreams II, that LincVolt album etc...) and are again working together.

great stuff tyler

ahahahaha

It's a crap song, but that Children of Destiny is really immaculately recorded in how the electric band mixes with the orchestral stuff. Kind of a waste of a real big budget recording, which doesn't happen that much like this now except for film soundtracks etc. I'd love to hear something like that done with say Gil Evans arrangements of Hendrix or something like that.

yeah, true, I'd love to hear Neil just blasting against a big orchestra, and not doing these doofy anthems (which seem to be what he wants to do when he has a bunch of people in a room). maybe someone bootlegged them soundchecking or something.

This is terrific - you know that part in Shakey where he mentions being really into Coltrane around the 1970 tour? I can hear him aping that influence a bit here. Much more innaresting than the Fillmore shows. 02-28-70 is a good show too, only performance of Oh, Lonesome Me.

Fillmore shows are pretty godlike, but yeah, some more exploratory things at the Philly show (and later on a tape of a show in Santa Monica). what a good band.

looks like Hitchhiker is on the schedule officially for next month

http://ultimateclassicrock.com/neil-young-hitchhiker/

lol at them calling "Give Me Strength" "God Give Me Strength" come on now.

Hitchhiker soon to be rescheduled for a 2049 release.

Like the late-era Bacharach song? xpost

yeah, just a typo

I might have missed it, but was it confirmed that Pocahontas and Campaigner are the same takes as the ones on Chrome Dreams?

Also look forward to hearing Randy Newman, Iron & Wine, Richard Thompson, Nick Lowe, Chris Robinson, Oh Sees, et al's individual takes on "Doghouse"

Awesome Chris Christie pic.

And very cool on that cover story! That's fantastic.

Holy crap! Congratulations, Tyler!

Sam Beam: At first, I thought "How can I possibly do justice to such a towering masterpiece like 'Doghouse?' Then I was like fuck it, and did a hushed version with fingerpicked acoustic guitar and whispered vocals."

Bryan Ferry: I was in Cannes, I can't remember the reason, but I was miserable about something, spending all sitting out by the pool and when I heard this music playing out of a little transistor radio. Strangest thing, just a radio sitting there, no one around. Anyway the song was "Doghouse" by Neil Young. I was blown away. I immediately booked studio time and recorded it as a single. It was my biggest hit in years!

tyler that's awesome!!

Congrats Tyler!

Also p curious about "whatever happened to Elvis Presley" tbh

congrats!

did you come up with Art of Gold???

haha, no i did not.

I've never bought Uncut, Tyler, but I'll buy that issue for sure.
