Rust Never Sleeps

Great album really enjoyed this, and the concept of it being recorded live.

I don't typically like live albums but this one is an exception. I suppose it's technically a hybrid of live recordings and studio overdubs, which is maybe what makes the difference for me. Neil is so emotive, whether it's on a delicate ballad or a sing-along rocker. Great performances here. I find "Thrasher" to be especially moving. I consider this his last truly great 5 star album before he fell into the morass of the 80s. Like so many other musicians that came up in the 60s and 70s, he had a hard time adjusting.

On a Neil Young trip at the moment! He seems to be one of the few artists whose live performances live up to the recorded versions.

Love me some Neil Young. It's fun to hear more electric performances like this even if I prefer the more chill typical versions.

I like Thrasher a lot. The acoustic side is really roomy and sounds great. The Crazy Horse side is probably the best version I have heard of Neil Young yet. Welfare Mothers is a weird song though.

Disco doble en cierto sentido. La cara A es acústica (5 primeras canciones) y la B eléctrica (4 canciones). Dos versiones parecidas y enormes como son "My my, hey hey" y "Hey hey, my my". Este disco si es imprescindible para entender la música americana y rock que resurgió a partir de los 90.

3.5! Some boring songs but Powderfinger and Hey Hey, My My are great.
