    WELD

    is so great.
    Could well be my favourite live album of all time.

    Yes and yes.  PLEASE, Neil, re-release this on vinyl and DVD!

    Variously credited to Mark Twain or Edward Abbey.

    No, your favorite one is Tori Amos - To Venus and Back live disc like everyones is.

  • Has Neil Young ever looked cooler than in 2001?

    Massey Hall is still my all time favorite live show.  The vinyl sounds like he is in your living room.  

    Although I recently got Bruce's Christic shows from 1990, and that is a 1B now, it's that damn good.

    I'd say MTV Unplugged must be my favorite Neil live show.

    That is very good.  I just wish there was a better recording of it.  It's a great show, but the sonics don't come close to Massey, which is just pristine.

    This gem just showed up on my doorstep.

    I know some folks don’t dig this phase of Neil’s career, but I love it. Some straight up twang and first rate players. Plus, a few of the tracks were recorded a couple of blocks from my house.

    Nash produced an expanded form of 4 Way Street for compact disc, released on June 15, 1992. The expanded edition included four solo performances on acoustic guitars, one by each member. Neil Young performed a medley of three songs from his first two solo albums; Stephen Stills included the at-the-time unreleased "Black Queen" from his eponymous debut; Crosby contributed his also yet to be issued "Laughing" from his 1971 debut LP; and Nash performed "King Midas in Reverse," The Hollies' single from 1967, which although credited to Allan Clarke, Nash and Tony Hicks, was written solely by Nash.[5]

    Additional tracks from the tour appeared on the CSN box set released in 1991, as well as Young's The Archives Vol. 1 1963–1972 released in 2009.

    Ah okey. Don't own the original release so I've never known Neil Youngs medley etc wasn't on the vinyl.

    Then this is worth buying!

    It's on my list, along with Easy Street.  The rest of the list looks kinda weak.

    There are quite a few new replies in the Letters To The Editor section today. Tuscaloosa will be the next Archives release, followed by Homegrown

    Haha. I remember watching the WELD show growing up and how we cringed at the crowd. I'd like a cut without the shots of the audience...

    Ugh. He's booked The Queen Elizabeth Theatre in Vancouver. That is the worst venue in town because of shitty sound, and I've boycotted it. I guess I won't be seeing Neil this tour. That sucks, because it is fairly likely that it would have been my last chance. Unless he switched venues again. The last time he came to town he started out booked in the QE, but then moved it to the arena "due to high demand".

    No way - shows at the venue are a completely fucking waste of money. All they result in for me is disappointment. I've learned my lesson with this place.... It managed to completely ruin the one and only time I ever got to see Soundgarden, which I'm pretty bitter about.
