There were stirrings of Life love in the awesome Sleeps with Angels derail. I am one of those who LOVE LIFE.

Neil contrarian crew to thread!

I love every song on here -- mystical epics, numbskull anthems, early '70s revives, big '80s ballads, everything -- but Mideast Vacation is one of the greatest songs Neil ever wrote or recorded. It's the Landing on Water spirit spilled all over the Horse.

Gotta be “around the world”‘for me. Those synth interludes are so dreamy and magical.

"Prisoners of Rock 'n' Roll" gets the deserved attention, but, yeah, I like the first side quite a bit (FASHION CHANGE. STYLE CHANGE).

I’ve never heard this before but Mideast Vacation is a terrific, weird opener with a killer last line. Definitely in for this.

(Unrelatedly, my mouth dropped to the floor when the second track turned out to be Neil Young covering the theme tune from Grandstand, until I realised 10 seconds later that Spotify had shuffled to “Forget About You” by The Motors.)

Inca Queen is so gorgeous

Yessss it is. The precision and patience of those acoustic guitar lines! And Crazy Horse sounding suitably regal!

Too Lonely is SO GOOD TOO though. Howling punk rock Neil.
