Neil Young -1972- Harvest
Old Man
published: 31/05/2016
Neil Young is one of my very favourite "rock" artists (probably in the top 10, if that means anything...).
His early 70's has been a marvelous period, where he consistently released great albums one after the other.
In this period, "Harvest" album, released in 1972, is his country-folk-rock album. A brilliant album, with Neil Young's unique touch and spirit.
I am completely fond of this album. It has several "hits", but moreover, it has this unique feel, and all (I mean, all) songs are great.
What's more, thanks to Neil Young's "Alabama" track on this album, we've had Lynyrd Skynyrd response "Sweet Home Alabama" ! 🙂
For times when you want to be quiet, somewhat nostalgic, then you just pick "Old Man" track. Just the folk guitar, hypnotic guitar and Neil singing, then the drums, the bass, the banjo slowly come into play, are you are there, fully...
