Editorial Reviews Amazon.com essential recording After laboring in Buffalo Springfield and Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young, Neil Young finally hit perfect pitch--if his endearing off-center whine can be called "perfect"--with his third album. He's equally passionate with trippy riddles (has anybody figured out what "We've got mother nature on the run" means in the title track?) and pointed protest (after 30 years of rock-radio overplay, "Southern Man" still rings with truth about redneck racism). His creaky ensemble, including pianist Jack Nitzsche and rotating members of Crazy Horse, transforms ramshackle country and folk songs into soulful hippie hymns. --Steve Knopper

The album opens with "Tell Me Why", a plaintive ballad delivered in a mostly acoustical format. Next is "After The Goldrush", a dreamy, sometimes nightmarish reflection on the state of the country at the turn of the seventies. Also included are ""only Love Can Break Your Heart", a long and rocking version of his famous "Southern Man" effort, including the afterward of "Till The Morning Comes". He does a terrific cover of Don Gibson's classic country song "Oh, Lonesome Me", and depresses us all with "Don't Let It Bring You Down". I simply love his song "Birds", and also like the rock treatment of "When You Dance". Finally, he delivers what has become a standard folk-rock ballad, "I Believe In You", which with "Cripple Creek Ferry" rounds out the album. This is a classic Neil Young effort, and like his work with Crazy Horse, is essential for any serious sixties rock fan. Enjoy!

I got this album after i heard a reference made to it in a film. Cate blanchette thaught billy bob thorntons character looked like neil young from his After the Gold Rush album. I was intrigued enough to go out and check it out. I am glad i did and glad i saw that film. Neil young is a legend and this album, Harvest, Zuma and Tonights the night will tell you why.

So, I had to get the album, Great song! I only had "Decade" and CSNY's "So Far" as far as Neil stuff goes, Oh and Harvest Moon. Anyhow, now I'm on the search for all the best Neil, Stills, CSNY etc... really good stuff! -jp
