lol

you gotta love it because you know stills probably deserved it

Hitchhiker was recorded about a week after Neil ditched Stills

"the ditch trilogy has a fourth installment, Steve. Neil out."

It got a positive review in the new Rolling Stone, so it should be coming out for real this time...right?

Until I see the mailman make it across my lawn without getting tackled by Neil & Elliot Roberts I assume it is still up for grabs, so to speak.

"Goddammit a LyncVolt just pulled up...Mailman Kyle...RUN!"

Just posted on NeilYoung.com: "Hitchhiker — I promise it's real. PSYCH! New Promise of the Real record! xo N31L"

Mailman Kyle listens to Wu-Tang Clan and wears HUGE Oakleys. He is very cool.

does he have a hip hop haircut

I always think of that anecdote from Shakey where he's doing a tour with Stills and informs him from the road via CB radio that he's not going to the next gig and drives off to some other city

lol!

I don't know if you could describe what's going as a "haircut" exactly

Our one-stop lists it as coming out 9/8 on vinyl. So it's realish.

seen on FB:

Long time no see. Will be live FB tomorrow w short message 4 u. Hitchhiker. Thanks for being there.
Peace
Neil

Hitchhiker cover art is dope imo, is that cover art from the time or just cleverly made to look like a mid 70s album. If the latter, spot on.

Be funny if the album comes out but the mug is delayed for decades.

haha

he laughed, nervously

lolz can we sabotage this and just ask Neil questions about Doghouse

please make that happen

ilx doghouse dogpile cru UNITE

Then came paranoia
And it ran away with me
I couldn't sign my autograph
Or appear on TV
Or ship your mugs on time

I love Neil 4ever and am excited for Hitchhiker but it would be beautiful if tomorrow's message was something like "actually Hitchhiker isn't coming out after all but here's something much more exciting, my new Printerfinger™ 3D printing DRM protection service"

sounds so good

yeah, this is dope

how fucking crazy is it that an album recorded at the peak of his powers (or one of the peaks, i guess) in 1976 is only properly seeing the light of day 41 years later

goddammit neil fucking release archives vol ii already

this skeletal powderfinger sounds so so good

"Give Me Strength" great as well

great vibe all over

trying to hold of listening to this until my record comes in the mail

it is weird, I was talking about this to a co-worker and was like "well, basically imagine the Beatles had like 4 records from the 60s that had never been released"

yeah, totally - the spectral reverb on some of the tracks is just gorgeous xp

"well, basically imagine the Beatles had like 4 records from the 60s that had never been released"

yes! the depth of neil's catalogue is a source of endless wonder to me, like if i wrote a song as good as 'give me strength' i'd be happy to retire knowing i'd done a good job at least once, but neil just locks it in the vault for five decades and keeps on truckin'

I'm super excited for this and, honestly, it's probably the least exciting of the possible releases (Chrome Dreams, Oceanside/Countryside, Homegrown, and the Odean)

wonder if neil would ever put out a raw "sessions" type release, a la that giant Dylan Cutting Edge set. I want to hear Crazy Horse fuckin' up over and over again on "Dangerbird" or something, with a Take 23 where everyone realizes Sampedro has fallen asleep.

I would completely purchase and listen to a mammoth C Horse box set of them just messing around

"Disc 10 is just 50 minutes of amp noise"

"Cool!"

Take 23

Ha ha, more like take 2 (maybe).

xp totally, I'm down for Arc II

"Disc 14 is mostly Billy watching a Jets game and yelling"

Would listen.
