Of the more "traditional" Neil records, On The Beach wins for me. It's a good first date record.

If a woman I just met and was on my first date with, put on this record, I would be helpless.

That's funny!

Sometimes I think After the Goldrush is my favorite.

For a long time I thought it was Tonight's the Night.

Right now it is probably Zuma.

Ragged Glory is really good.

I like the guitars on Living With War.

Rust Never Sleeps.

There are a dozen NY records (at least) that I have never heard. This is awesome.

i'm gonna see Neil live for the first time on friday !
i'm pretty excited !
hope it will worth the 46€ and the 2 hours drive !!


too bad i'm pretty sure he won't play a single song from On the beach

did anyone see him recently ? any setlist ?

yeah i saw him recently at the hammersmith apollo. I thought he was fucking great and he did play ambulance blues. I also met radiohead in the crowd, but that's another story altogether........i had to beat them to death with their own shoes.

On the beach is my number 1

1. Tonight's the Night
2. Zuma
3. Comes a Time
4. Rust Never Sleeps
5. On the Beach

I take it these five are a good place to start with Neil Young?

No one said Harvest Moon. That's not my favorite. I was just noticing no one said it.

I think Comes a Time is one that is often overlooked. The others mentioned often above are all great.

But reactor. Yuck.

Anything by Buffalo Springfield is killer. About 10% of CSNY is really good.

Definitly Harvest because it's got Out on the weekend. I freakin love that song.
