    Anyone know where I can just listen to Earth for free? Not on Spotify obviously, and not on YouTube. I've heard weird stuff about it, so I don't want to pay for it until I can give it a listen. Thx!

    Would like to hear some of it first myself. I'm a lo-o-o-o-ng time Neil fan but in recent decades I tend to proceed with a bit of caution (life on a budget).

    Neil puts out fantastic quality sounding records but damn are they expensive.
    And so you see, I have come to doubt
    All that I once held as true
    I stand alone without beliefs
    The only truth I know is you.

    It is the 15 years anniversary of seeing Neil for the first time (2001) with my two brothers, so we went from Sweden together to Berlin to see him. It was amazing. Saw Bruce two days later here in Sweden, and it just can't compare.

    I've seen Neil in 2001, 2003 (Greendale tour), 2008 and now in 2016 and he's still incredble.

    one of the best concerts I've seen. Love and only love into RITFW was better than any PJ-RITFW I've heard.

    Pono doesn't have streaming?

    That album sucks though. Such a weird mixing (not counting the animal sunds).

    I rather put on a bootleg from this European tour.

    And if he wanted animal sounds and such, he could have used it during the concerts inbetween songs and stuff. Overdubbing cows and gees... it's just bad.

    And I found the mixing and sound of it to be pretty bad (some cool songs on it though).

    I know it's his "comeback" album. But I think it's too affected of the 80's sound.

    Revisited Reacor though. That's a pretty good one.

    Uncle Neil is coming back to Australia and New Zealand in 2017!! :) He's just been added to the Bluesfest line up in April, and Frontier Touring posted this on Facebook:

    "Frontier Touring are thrilled to reveal that Neil Young, one of rock’s most revered songwriters and performers, will be returning to Australia and New Zealand in 2017 for his first shows down under in four years.

    ‘Nobody does it quite like Young ★★★★’ – The Guardian
    ‘This is his best tour in at least 20 years’ – Rolling Stone

    Young will perform headline dates in both countries, including indoor arenas and special outdoor shows. He’ll be joined on stage by Promise of the Real – a five-piece Californian band featuring Willie Nelson’s sons Lukas and Micah.

    Dates, venues and ticket details will be revealed very soon.

    For long-time fans, these amazing shows are not to be missed! With Promise of the Real on-stage beside him, Young is currently playing some of the finest shows fans have ever witnessed.

    These shows will be something truly special. Stay tuned to the Frontier Touring website and Facebook for all the details soon!"

    It also had a picture of a calendar showing October 12th, so maybe that's when the dates will be announced.

    Fuck yeah!!

    It's a 6 LP set, Long May You Run being disc 8.5, and Live Rust being a double LP :)
