    What did you pay for it @goldrush ?
    I used an NYA discount offer when I bought it.
    The Harvest 50th box set was $149.98, and the After The Gold Rush 50th box set was $69.98. I paid $131.98 for both, with free shipping.

    Nice! The ATG should have gotten a book and a live LP though :/

    HARVEST IS THE GREATEST ALBUM EVER MADE 

    SO EVEN THOUGH I HATE CLUNKY BOX SETS WITH POINTLESS LITOGRAPHS AND POSTERS AND BACKSTAGE PASS-REPRODUCTIONS

    IT BEING THE GREATEST ALBUM EVER MADE MAKES ME BUY THE DELUXE EDITION

    AND THEN ALSO MY DAD CAN BORROW THE  HARVEST TIME DVD

    ALSO 

    I WOULD LOVE A HARVEST MOON BOX SET

    I think I would have agreed with you in 1972.  It's great for sure, but people my age played it so damn many times I kind of burned out on it.

    Neil Young Toast, is the vinyl 140 grams?

    Looking for a double LP gatefold release in my collection, that is 140 grams (and not 180 grams)...

    Definitely. As much as I love the album, the box set is just the LP and a 7" single with 2 versions of Wonderin'. It would've been great to get a live record in there as well.

    Harvest is a phenomenal album - and listening to the Heart of Gold / Sugar Mountain 7" with my Dad is my earliest musical memory - but After The Gold Rush is right up there as well. That amazing run of Don't Let It Bring You Down / Birds / When You Dance, I Can Really Love on side 2 is perfection.

    Good question.  I have this one:

    but the Discogs listing doesn't give the weight, and it says nowhere on the LP itself (I even looked at the very fine print on the back with a magnifier).  I'd say it's either 120 grams or 140.  Great album, well worth having!

    Yeah, I have it. It's great. Are You Passionate is a severely underrated album in the narrowminded Neil Young community. Mmmm!


    I will buy a kitchen scale after work, and weigh it :)

    What's the verdict on Big Change?  I'm on the fence about getting this one.

    Admittedly, some of my late night posts are kind of lame.  
    Like, WTF, did I really do that?  :lol:
