Neil Young
The 2017 release of these tapes reveals an intimate, stark set of performances featuring only harmonica and guitar. Captured at Indigo Studios, the songs serve as a bridge between his folk-rock roots and later electric experiments.
Because these tracks sat in a vault, they offer a view of the songwriter during a peak period of creativity. The raw quality of the session highlights the strength of the compositions in their most basic form.
