    Is that the image that’s made up of the different pieces in the booklet?

    Apparently Neil and Daryl Hannah have gotten married.  Good for them.  They always look happy together.

    What's a reasonable price to pay for a NM copy of Ragged Glory?

    I think I paid around £80 for my copy last year, including shipping from the UK to Australia

    I would.  I have an original release and because Ragged Glory is an hour long and was released on one record, both the grooves and sound are fairly thin.  This needs a double vinyl re-issue with nice big fat grooves to match the glory of that awesome ragged music! 

    Edit:  I just noticed on Discogs there is a double vinyl reissue out of Europe but I'd still wait for it to be officially released- probably going to get better sound that way and, besides, we all know how Neil feels about unofficial releases!

    Good points guys. These days I'm an audiophile before a collector so I'd want the best sounding press anyway. We'd probably get that with the reissue.

    Got so jealous when flipping through my brothers collection looking for a My Morning Jacket album I have  lost - and saw that he had Ragged Glory which the price tag still on: £5

    I left my iPad at home today so I had no music to play in the office. I’ve been streaming Neil from the Archives site all day instead :)

    So far I’ve played Neil Young s/t, Zuma, Ragged Glory, Broken Arrow, Sleeps With Angels, and Mirrorball. Le Noise has just started.

    It’s the most productive I’ve been in ages!

    It was first posted in August but it’s been updated this week with more details about what you get. I think the important part is that the introductory prices are locked in. Sounds like the price will increase soon after launch.

    There is a link on the Contrarian page that says “FOUR East Coast Shows” but there are no details at all yet. There will probably be more news when it all goes live.
