This is an interesting album from 1976, originally recorded in a single day, that was long kept in the vaults and it contains the original stripped down versions of songs that have since been released on subsequent Neil Young albums, the most notable being Pocahontas and Powderfinger. There are two newly released tracks. I like the studio chatter between songs and it has a rough at the edges feel to it. It's an excellent collection of songs that are quite delightful in this form though perhaps they will not be as accessible to those coming to Neil Young for the first time. This album sits well and compares favorably with Neil Young's classic 70's period without quite reaching those peaks.</span><span class="blurb_etc">…</span> <span class="toggle_expand_collapse toggle_expand">Expand</span></span> </div> </div> <div class="review_section review_actions helpful_right"> <ul class="review_actions"> <li class="review_action review_helpful"> <div class="review_helpful"> <div class="rating_thumbs"> <div class="helpful_summary thumb_count"> <a href="/login"> <span class="total_ups">0</span> of <span class="total_thumbs">1</span> users found this helpful </a> </div> <div style="clear:both;"></div> </div> </div> </li> </ul> </div> </div> </div></div></div></div> </li> <li id="user_review_8502182" class="review user_review last_review"> <div class="review_btm review_btm_r"><div class="review_btm review_btm_l"><div class="review_top review_top_r"><div class="review_top review_top_l"> <div class="review_content" > <div class="review_section"> <div class="review_stats"> <div class="review_critic"> <div class="name"> <a href="/user/Andremax">Andremax</a> </div> <div class="date">Jul 13, 2018</div> </div> <div class="review_grade"> <div class="metascore_w user medium album positive indiv">8</div> </div> </div> <div class="review_body"> <span class="inline_expand_collapse inline_collapsed" id="review_blurb_8502182"><span class="blurb blurb_collapsed">Leftovers.

The album isn't only this, the music here has too much quality too, it couldn't understand why this were been shelved by 40 years. OK, most of these songs were known by public, but it's quite interesting listening its seminal versions. Tasteful acoustic guitar soft folk songs and beautiful pianos that makes experience at minimum pleasant. It could seen that Neil Young is too good artist when even in studio leftovers he does work well (a detail, he was high when he was recording Hitchhiker, isn't him a surprising artist?).</span><span
