Here's a nice little list for discussion...we all like a good list after all Grin https://www.theguardian.com/music/2020/nov/05/neil-young-every-album-ranked


I think the most telling phrase in there refers to to cliff-edge drop in quality post-David Briggs.

I see that Archives 2 is in the works. It’s a lovely looking box, but isn’t a lot of it already out (Tuscaloosa, Live at The Roxy et al)? Although according to the track listing I saw I guess a lot of people will be looking forward to the live versions of ‘Stringinan’ and that old Saturday night TV staple ‘Lotto Love’. 😁

Tuscaloosa


Apropos of nothing at all to do with Neil Young, I spent far more of my life than I really wanted to working in Tuscaloosa, Alabama...

I helped design and build Sprint's Alabama mobile phone service from there. College town I remember, and with a massive football stadium. Mercedes Benz had a plant there too if I recall. Most abiding memory was of a 'restaurant' that had 5 words on its menu: "Steak", "Ribs", "Pork", "Chicken", "Pie" (Pie was desert.)

Sorry, sudden flashback. Do carry on.

As someone on another forum points out - another week, another unreleased Neil Young album. It might be interesting to see what the Trans band sound like on ‘normal’ songs. Mind you, it’s not out yet, and you know what he’s like for the old release date switcheroo. https://americana-uk.com/neil-young-announces-release-of-lost-album-johnnys-island

Unlikely, but... TFA will be nice to have.

Eh? I have CD versions of Journey Through the Past and Eldorado.

Or are you referring to remaster/reissues?

Yes, to be fair Eldorado was originally released on CD but only briefly and it has been out of print for a long time.

Your Journey Through The Past must be a boot. It has never had an official CD release. Same goes for Time Fades Away except as part an Official Album Series box. There was a vinyl reissue a few years back, which I have and a digital release which I also have courtesy of Amazon Auto Rip when I bought the vinyl but there has never been a stand alone CD.

To the best of my recollection I got my JTTP in the 1980s from a store in New Hampshire called Noteworthy, which sold CDs at bargain prices, so it may well have been a boot. To be honest, I have the rip, but sold the CD on long ago, so I can't really check. The sound quality isn't great, but then, a lot of 1972 recordings were pretty shitty.
