Neil Young Archives

Anyone pre-order this? I pre-ordered the blu-ray set and my bonus preview disc showed up on Friday. All I can say is wow.... Neil put a lot of work into this and it sounds amazing. My hearing is shit after working around jet aircraft for 10 years, but I'm so glad I went for the blu-ray despite the cost.

Anyone else have this yet and any opinions?

i figured id wait for the actual release to get some feedback... definitely looks like a cool set though... i hope the cameron crowe PJ documentary is as extensive

I'll be getting the CD version on 6-1. DVD-A and Blue Ray isn't of much interest to me. I'm glad that he's releasing a CD version because there was some doubt that he would!

I know. I was hesitant to buy the CD version because two of the discs are the performance series discs that I already have (The Fillmore and Massey Hall I believe). And Journey Through The Past is not included. I may end up buying the individual CDs for what I am missing tho.

I'll be buying the DVD set from my local shop (don't have a Blu-Ray player and can't afford it). Can't wait. This series is ground-breaking stuff. Check out the demo of the North Country disc:

If you're a Neil nut, IMO the CDs just won't do (and mp3 download comes with the DVD and Blu-Ray anyway).

I'm holding off, as good as this looks. I think I'll eventually pick up the Blu-Ray version when I get a blu-ray player. Everything else looks inferior. Of course, I got burned before when I moved to DVD-Audio as that was Neil's format of choice, and now it's dead.
