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.

― tylerw, Wednesday, 30 August 2017 17:31 (seven years ago) link

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
― niels, Friday, 1 September 2017 11:09 (seven years ago) link
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
― pizzarro gizzarda (bizarro gazzara), Friday, 1 September 2017 11:30 (seven years ago) link
goddammit neil fucking release archives vol ii already
― pizzarro gizzarda (bizarro gazzara), Friday, 1 September 2017 11:31 (seven years ago) link
this skeletal powderfinger sounds so so good
"Give Me Strength" great as well
great vibe all over
― niels, Friday, 1 September 2017 11:35 (seven years ago) link
trying to hold of listening to this until my record comes in the mailit 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"
― Universal LULU Nation (upper mississippi sh@kedown), Friday, 1 September 2017 11:38 (seven years ago) link
yeah, totally - the spectral reverb on some of the tracks is just gorgeous xp
― pizzarro gizzarda (bizarro gazzara), Friday, 1 September 2017 11:39 (seven years ago) link
"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'
― pizzarro gizzarda (bizarro gazzara), Friday, 1 September 2017 11:41 (seven years ago) link
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)
― Universal LULU Nation (upper mississippi sh@kedown), Friday, 1 September 2017 15:45 (seven years ago) link
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.
― tylerw, Friday, 1 September 2017 16:16 (seven years ago) link
I would completely purchase and listen to a mammoth C Horse box set of them just messing around
― chr1sb3singer, Friday, 1 September 2017 16:19 (seven years ago) link
"Disc 10 is just 50 minutes of amp noise"
"Cool!"
― chr1sb3singer, Friday, 1 September 2017 16:20 (seven years ago) link
Take 23
Ha ha, more like take 2 (maybe).
― Josh in Chicago, Friday, 1 September 2017 16:20 (seven years ago) link
xp totally, I'm down for Arc II
― sleeve, Friday, 1 September 2017 16:22 (seven years ago) link
"Disc 14 is mostly Billy watching a Jets game and yelling"
― chr1sb3singer, Friday, 1 September 2017 16:22 (seven years ago) link
Would listen.
― Josh in Chicago, Friday, 1 September 2017 16:23 (seven years ago) link
Disc 9 consists of David Briggs muttering incomprehensibly over rough mixes of "Ride My Llama"
― tylerw, Friday, 1 September 2017 16:24 (seven years ago) link
I've been checking for your Uncut piece periodically, Tyler, but they're still an issue behind here. I've never bought a pricey British music magazine before--I want a free car wash or something as part of the package.
― clemenza, Friday, 1 September 2017 16:30 (seven years ago) link
haha yeah they are expensive ... if it makes any difference, the free CD has a bunch of good stuff on it too. i haven't seen one in the wild out here, but friends in other places have found them ...
― tylerw, Friday, 1 September 2017 16:31 (seven years ago) link
remember that thing he put online (I think) before Americana came out....like the website was just a picture of a mixing desk or something and it was like 15 minutes of Crazy Horse aimlessly jamming? that was awesome
― Universal LULU Nation (upper mississippi sh@kedown), Friday, 1 September 2017 16:36 (seven years ago) link
yeahhhh that was awesome, kinda like Bardo Pond or something: http://bigozine2.com/roio/?p=996
― tylerw, Friday, 1 September 2017 16:39 (seven years ago) link
oh yeah that was rad!

Disc 20 is Pancho and Neil fucking around with a Synclavier manipulating voice samples in search of the perfect "Doghouse Dog...House".

According to Amazon my order of the lp is "shipping today". I am warily excited.
