Neil Young singing this album was the first concert that I saw. I was 13 years old. It was amazing.🇨🇦❤️
There's a certain sadness in his voice. What an exquisite guitar line.
Fancy having your new landlord turn up, and then find out he's written one of the greatest songs of all time about you. Neil Young is different class.
Young wrote this about the caretaker of the ranch he bought in 1970. The song compares a young man's life to an old man's and shows that the old man was once like this young man. The caretaker of the that cattle ranch? His name was Louis Avila. The ranch was the Broken Arrow Ranch, purchased for $350,000 in 1970 (just think about those real estate prices compared to now!). Reportedly, Avila was giving Young a tour of the place and asked him how a young man like him could afford a place like this. Young, aged 25, replied "Just lucky, Louie, just real lucky." Avila was quite bemused. Peace out.

This is what we used to call folk music. Neil is the greatest!
Neil young’s” Gold Rush” was the album wove through my young self. I love this . I had four cassettes in my van bus & one was Gold Rush. Those four cassettes were played consistently for 2 yrs. But Neil Young is such a great song writer. People comment on his rough voice. Take the whole package, he’s just great. This style of music is kinda California vibes, it’s a little bit country. So glad you like this too. He was great live. Back in the70’s. I can’t pick my favorite, but he sang with C,S & N & the song that blew my 18 yr old mind was when they were called Buffalo Springfield. & they sang” Love the one your with”. And Four dead in Ohio. Powerful protest songs. The 60’s were angry & they wrote about it. It’s our history of the revolution telling the older generation that we are taking over. And we did it, & it all turned out pretty well. Love it or leave it, eh?
Another great song by Neil is -"Heart of Gold"

It was written after the killing of four Kent State students by the Ohio National Guard. The students were peacefully protesting the Vietnam War when the Guard opened fire.

Linda Ronstadt sang on Heart of Gold with Neil
In 1990 I was on the Grateful Dead Europe tour, and living in Lake Tahoe at the time. When I returned I came into San Fransisco around 8 pm, having left Zurich Switzerland 36 hours earlier. Needless to say, I was beyond out of it from jet lag and lack of sleep. The friend who picked me up at SFO just moved into a care taker position on a piece of property above Santa Cruz, and his nearest neighbor was Neil. The house he lived in was about a 1/4 mile away from Neils rehearsal "barn". I slept for about 12 hours and awoke around 5pm, and as I awoke I kept hearing "Cinnamon Girl". He was jamming with Crazy Horse. They were going thru their set for the upcoming tour.I thought I was dreaming, and then found out what was really going on.I was beyond blown away with where I was and what I was hearing. I never met Neil, but the area around there is very beautiful and very lush. A truly special piece of the planet.

I love how you are able to listen to a song for the first time and dissect so perfectly. Great job for a classic song.
What all are watching has been recently called the "Godfather of Grunge" if you get more exposure to more of his work. He wrote "Ohio" in about 10 minutes after watching the slaughter. He is peculiar as he is talented. Wonderful voice, great songwriting and angst to go with it.
Neil Young is an amazing artist, both as a solo performer and also as a member of Crosby, Stills, Nash, and YOUNG (CSNY). Check out Neil with CSNY performing “Ohio” about the 1970 Kent State murders.

I had the privilege of seeing Neil Young & Crazy Horse live in 1976 when I was 16 years old. The first half of the show was Neil Young with his acoustic guitar, Banjo and harmonica. The 2nd half of the show he came out with Crazy Horse and rocked the sh*t out of the place. Still one of the best concerts I've ever been to and I've been to a lot of concerts.

I've seen Neil 12 times. First concert was with Crazy Horse in 1987. I was 18 years old. In fact it was my first concert ever. Most of his concerts, that I've seen anyway have been acoustic for the first half. Then rip your face off, full on for the second half. There was only one concert I was not impressed with and that was his Harvest Moon concert. Neil played with Booker T and the MGs and it was great. It was the opening acts that sucked ass. Pearl Jam and Soundgarden. They were absolutely horrible live. And I had to sit for over two hours listening to that crap. To this day I still won't listen to anything by them. Maybe their live performances have gotten better ? When I saw them they were both fairly new to the scene. 91 ? 92? Somewhere around there.

I finally saw Neil Young at the Desert Fest or Old Chella a few years ago. It was in October and he started singing Harvest Moon as the actual full harvest moon rose up above directly behind the stage. It was so magical, I was in heaven. He and his band are so freaking tight. If you ever have the opportunity to witness true musicians, GO!

I hear a melancholy, reflective song, maybe rising out of a broken love relationship (“love lost, such a cost”). It’s universal - who can’t relate?
Neil Young is one of those artists whose catalog contains so many great songs that everyone has a favorite….even people who don’t really listen to that type of music….I mean “Helpless” alone 🤷🏼♂️🤤

Neil Young has a distinctive voice, and songs that will last my lifetime and more. When he was with Crosby Stills Nash and Young, imo, brought out the best in them. His lyrics and music spans from folk * check out Harvest Moon * to straight out rock, joining Pearl Jam to play his classic * Keep on Rockin in the Free World. Look at Eddie Vedder as an artist with a group Pearl Jam, and solo. Eddie absolutely knows what Neal Young is about, and he so respects this amazing artist, who does things his way. He IS his own drummer, not into the celebrity ego scene, that so many feed off of. I love this about him. Rather, as this video shows, he is not into fancy clothes, nor flashing concert settings. He is there simply to sing and play his songs, and puts everything into it. A great artist indeed.
Crosby Stills Nash Young “Suite Judy Blue Eyes,” incredible and my favorite song of all time.
One of my all time favorite songs ( along with Heart of Gold )...a true legend !
Tears come down my eyes as I listen to this masterpiece. I used to cover this song with my band before pandemic, and it made me so happy to sing it with a band cause it reminds me of my father. He passed me down some good ol’ songs, thank you papi.
That whole concert was absolutely amazing. I recommend you watch the entire video.
My mama introduced me to Neil Young when i was 13. His voice is so soothing, it has comforted me through many hard times.
This entire album is a Classic!! Do yourself a favor and check out the entire Harvest album. Old Man, Harvest, Heart of Gold, Man Needs a Maid, just every song is great. I can't imagine being in this London audience hearing Old Man and Heart of Gold for the first time ever! The album hasn't even been recorded yet. Neil Young is a great song writer, he can do these great acoustic songs and you have to hear him on electric guitars. He was in Buffalo Springfield, Crosby Stills Nash and Yourg, and his solo stuff and his band Crazy Horse. He recorded an album not too long ago called Harvest Moon and it's supposed to be like Part 2 or follow up of the original Harvest album. For sure listen to Heart of Gold from the same album. Peace, Love, Courage from David in Detroit.

Oh Harvest Moon! -- my wedding song ❤️❤️
One of my favorite songs by him..
He's still so amazing today. This is before my time, but I LOVE Neil Young.
Neil Young is easily one of the greatest song writers of the last 50 years.
I was 8 and Harvest was my first album I bought. I love this man! His vulnerability, wisdom and honor
I love his voice and his calmness. His music is soooii wonderful.
Those times artist used to write songs from deep inside their souls that's why they can touch our hearts along the times.
Great review. I would recommend Neil Young with Crazy Horse’s Cinnamon Girl.

I absolutely love the original version video of Cinnamon Girl. I play it all the time.
Love Neal youngs music... stories and metaphors behind every song. Listen to "down by the river" the bass in this song is amazing!
