    Did anyone ever get a code to share when they renewed? Looking to test this site out if someone has one unused.

    Just find out, from watching an interview with Jim Jarmush, that Neil's idea was to make the score for Dead Man with Krist and Dave Grohl from the band Nirvana. But changed his mind and aligned with Jarmush who had thought of Neil scoring it alone with just his guitar. 

    Anywhoooooo....

    Ok…so this might be an impossible question to answer…but where do people see Mirrorball sitting on the Neil Young album rankings!? Top 5? Top 10? No where near his best?? Interested to know! 

    Personally I don’t know all of Neil’s catalogue and only have a couple of his compilation and live albums and of course Mirrorball which I love. One of my all time top 10 albums! Look forward to hearing peoples thoughts.

    With over 40 studio albums, I would put Mirrorball in the top 20 but it doesn't make the top 10 for me.

    If considering his live albums or work with other groups, Mirrorball would fall even further down the list.

    I'd agree with this. For studio albums, it's probably in one of the 15-20 spots for me.
    I don't think there's a single song on it that I ever skip, it's such a strong record.

    Neil is heading back to the studio soon... or will it be the barn?



    It may just be an album of whistling though!  :D

    So for you NY experts, are people ordering all of these new boots on vinyl?  Seems pretty redundant to Massey, Shakespeare, Cellar Door, Carnegie with the exception of Citizen Kane, which is heavy with On the Beach.  I ordered that one for sure.  

    It's hard to be a "completist" on NY.

    Especially because that means I would have to willingly own Are You Passionate? and Fork in the Road.

    Answer is yes they will be very similar to Massey, Shakespeare & Carnegie from 71. I ordered them but I doubt they will be must haves like Massey or Carnegie.

    I'm still only missing Arc/Weld, Unplugged, Road Rock, and Year of the Horse.

    Can't stop now.

    Are You Passionate is a great record!

    I pre-ordered ORS4 box but I haven't received a shipping notice. Anyone get theirs from NYA yet?

    It might be. I haven't listened to it since selling it back to the store I bought it from a day after I bought it. 

    I remember feeling physically ill listening to "Let's Roll."

    I’m in the same place with the boot releases. The Citizen Kane is a for sure purchase. Probably stream the other two on NYA a few times before deciding tonpurchase. 1971 seems to be fairly well covered at this point.
