Reviewed: 10-28-2020 Reviewer: Tom McCarter Genre: General FCCs: none If You Like: Neil's "Harvest" album Review: this is an album Young recorded in 1974 revolving around a breakup with his wife at the time, which he chose not to release. The tunes are very poignant and mostly acoustic. Track Review (favorites denoted by *): 1/ Separate Ways (3:33) - guitar starts> slow song about breaking up slowly builds to midtempo> slow fade *2/ Try (2:50) - drums start> midtempo song with chorus about trying to patch things up> fade 3/ Mexico (1;41) - piano starts> slow song about breaking up> quick stop *4/ Love Is A Rose (2:18) - bass starts> midtempo song about the risks of love> fade *5/ Homegrown (2:48) - electric slide guitar starts> uptempo rocking song possibly about marijuana> fade 6/ Florida (2:59) - spoken word conversation with electronics> quick stop 7/ Kansas (2:12) - guitar starts> midtempo song about a one night stand> quick stop 8/ We Don't Smoke It No More (4:52) - harmonica starts> midtempo bluesy song probably about cocaine> slow fade *9/ White Line (3:14) - guitar starts> midtempo song about breaking up> slow fade *10/ Vacancy (3:59) - rocking electric guitar starts> uptempo song about losing trust in someone> quick fade **11/ Little Wing (2:13) - harmonics starts> slow song about breaking up> fade 12/ Star Of Bethlehem (2:49) -guitar starts> midtempo song about breking up> quick stop |
