Fork In The Road - Neil Young

As Neil Young fans are eagerly and patiently waiting for a compliation, the unique character that is Neil Young does as he pleases. I have to say, I haven t been tuned into all of his albums but the ones I m familar with I like. Fork in the Road has a road trip theme to it, where he takes an old car across the US having made it green. It s down to this that the album is loaded with automobile related tracks like Behind the Wheel and of course the title-track, they are stripped down tunes that are free from complications and definitely on the rockier side of life. Cough up the Bucks has an almost rap rock sound to it and does seem a bit out of place but it s an excellent ...

Greatest Hits - Neil Young

Cowgirl in the Sand is another epic number which is also taken from Everybody Knows this is Nowhere . This particular track showcases everything which is good about Neil Young - excellent lyrics, distinctive guitar, and his trademark cutting vocals - 8/10 CINNAMON GIRL - 3:00 Opening with a classic distorted riff, Cinnamon Girl is in my top five Neil Young tracks of all time.

Zuma - Neil Young With Crazy Horse

"Zuma", released in 1975, has long been one of my favourite Neil Young albums. Although not as immediately accessible as “After the Goldrush” or “Harvest”, and probably not a good introduction to Neil Young for beginners, it contains all the elements which make his music great. A unique blend of melodic country-rock, delicate acoustic and searing electric guitar makes this an essential purchase. The highlights of the album are “Danger bird” and “Cortez the killer”. On these tracks the raw electric thud of Crazy Horse provides a framework around which Neil weaves some of his finest, most piercing, guitar ...
