I really like "Out On The Weekend" too - there's this certain chord he hits in the chorus that is just fantastic - but Harvest ain't Neil's best by a long shot. "Out On The Weekend" is one of the few songs on there I like.

I guess it all depends what you think is best.. It may not be the best example of his song writing wizardry but it definitly my favourite.

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

I would start with Zuma, but I am biased. From Houston's list...

zuma
on the beach
tonight's the night
rust never sleeps
comes a time

that's just me though.

I can not stress the awesomeness of zuma enough. I listen to it probably once a week.

This got me thinking...

I hereby request that the Bottomless Pit work out a version of "Lookout Joe." In my head I hear it as an Andy-on-lead-vocals song.

Thank you.

Hmmm... This is hard. Best I can do is this:

1) Zuma
1) On the Beach
1) Tonight's the Night
1) Everybody Knows This Is Nowhere (the classic Crazy Horse tracks; don't listen much to the others, actually)
1.5) the unreleased Chrome Dreams
2) Trans
2) Reactor (really, folks, it does have its moments)

...though the 2s could be replaced/swapped out depending on the day and the mood.

Funny, as I had always wanted SKWM to storm through "Powderfinger" with TMidgett on vox.

Tim (if you're reading), have you guys ever recorded any NY covers?

Shakey might think that Harvest is 'middle of the road' but it is an excellent album. So many great songs.
