    Just a bummer. I was actually on the fence about it in the first place, but fell to the side of buying it, and now i feel like I just made my first bad record buy ever, and it blows! Next time just let me live in ignorant bliss! :P

    It's not a BAD album at all.
    I don't want it anymore. :lol: :fp:

    Why? (it was average for that album)

    I guess I'd rather have a neil young album and not a greatest hits.

    :willshrug:
    I didn't want a bunch of NY albums, so settled for the greatest hits. I am fine with that. I have Mirror Ball coming in next week though. :)
    Greatest Hits is.............great, nice choice! :thumbup:

    It has so many awesome tracks, the fact it has Harvest Moon on it is worth buying it alone. Have you seen the price of a second-hand Harvest Moon the album, outrageous.

    Last year I finally found my 'Holy Grail' of Neil Young albums - Tonight's the Night - I had been looking for it for about two years. What a buzz turning up that one in the racks! - I had almost reached the point of resorting to Ebay - but lady luck saved me! ;)

    It sounds superb on vinyl - like a completely different album to the CD

    Ironically, Tonight's The Night was the first Neil Young album on vinyl I picked up because it was the only NY album they had on my want-list, all the others I wanted weren't in stock.

    I haven't checked in a while, but I think "Tonight's" still available new as a good quality vinyl reissue. I've had both an original pressing and reissue and I don't recall any difference in sound.

    In any case, congratulations! "Tonight's the Night" is an amazing album. I save it for playing while in just the right mood- usually late at night, lights down low, settle in somewhere comfortable, eyes closed, totally immersed in every track.

    How about "On the Beach"? It's close to the same period in time an another somewhat generally lesser recognized classic Neil album.

    Nice! I LOVE this album.... might be my next purchase! :thumbup:
    I love it as well, finally decided to grab it on wax. It's supposed to rain all weekend so I plan to give it a proper listen to tomorrow.

    So how is it on vinyl? This is my favorite album of '13 so far.

    Definitely in my top 3, maybe even my favourite too. Such a great record.

    Interesting you guy's mention Tonight's The Night, I was recommended it from Brian here and was in my local store last week, I always check the Neil Young section and have never seen it there, then there it was! Never heard the album but, heard many good things about it...

    I don't think it's an original but, has the same category number as an original, probably a reissue. Had a second-hand sticker on it and pleasantly in mint condition all round. :)

    I love On the Beach. Funnily enough I bought it whilst on holiday in Seattle, because it hadn't been released on CD. I got it for $1. This wass probably in the early 2000s when records were seen as dead in the water.

    I agree about Tonight's the Night - subdued lighting late in the evening.

    On the Beach - see the sky about to rain - I play that to people who doubt that vinyl sounds any good!

    Isn't it illegal? Just the digital version stuck onto vinyl without having any legal right to do so?
    Anyway, I'm sure you can fi d it easily enough online with a Google search. :)

    Was just being accurate - not intending to place judgement. I own an illegal Led Zep bootleg album that I just love. :)
