Neil Young Living with War
« on: April 14, 2006, 08:11:06 pm »
New Neil Young Album

Quote from: HARP Magazine
[Johnathon] Demme, who filmed the award-winning documentary Neil Young: Heart of Gold, writes in an e-mail, “Neil just finished writing and recording – with no warning – a new album called Living With War. It all happened in three days.” How rock ‘n ‘roll is that?

I just wet myself.

All ya'lls complaining about Neil Being too blunt with titles like Let's Impeach the President are about to miss a fuckin' killer album.

Go listen to it, or go fuck yourself.  Either one, don't matter.

The weird thing is that Neil is actually allowing it to be streamed.  I remember reading a petition a few years ago to release On the Beach on CD, and it quoted Neil saying that the low quality of CD audio was the reason it hadn't been released.

Think of the stream as akin to hearing it on the radio.  It's gonna be in the stores in May.  I got an e-mail from amazon.com today, guess what, they somehow knew I was a Neil Young Fan.

Ok, so I go to amazon.com and when I get there I realize I don't have Ragged Glory or American Stars and Bars so I bought them instead.

Quote from: pmcd9 on April 26, 2006, 04:01:02 pm
But man, why you gotta send me back to amazon.com for On the Beach?  Haven't I spent enough already?

Hey, my current play (the one that's getting the attention) has thinly veiled attempt to have me meet Neil Young built right into it.  That, or it has the possibility that I will be sued by Neil Young for illegally putting "Helpless" into my script.  No, I kid.  I plan to legally pursue the rights to put part of the song into my play at a pivotal moment.  He is Manitoba's son after all, and if all goes as planned I will meet and hug Neil in two years.  If all goes in a bad way I will have to moderately edit a few scenes in the play. 

Also, Neil Young, along with Crosby Stills and Nash will be performing here in summer, but I'm not going - tickets went on sale today and are already sold out.

It's like the radio.  To whet your appetite.  So you'll buy.  And it's totally going to work.

It's funny - I really thought it sucked when I first heard it.  Then he did a whole week on Conan, playing a song or two a night, and I really loved the new ones there.  So I relistened to the album a few times and I think it was my sixth or seventh listen where it really hit me. 

But seriously, I'm still kind of absorbing that one.  I listen to it about once a week.  I'm not quite ready for a new Neil Young album yet.

TOO SOON
