Report: Glastonbury full lineup announced…

1 Comment

The Glastonbury UK music festival is announced, see the official line up here:

http://www.nme.com/news/glastonbury/44875

While Neil Young and Bruce Springsteen are both scheduled to perform on a different night, you know those two will pull on a surprise jam session where they will play guitar and sing together for a few songs. I’m sure Neil will probably perform his new album, “Fork In the Road”, in it’s entirety at Glastonbury during his set. Of course, Neil will play all of his classics too.

They can do without Lady Gaga being part of the fest, it’s not a bad lineup. I personally think Glastonbury should ditch Lady Gaga and book M.I.A instead.

Cool Video: See Neil Young’s “Cough Up the Bucks” video here…

This is one of my favorite tunes off “Fork In the Road”, Neil Young’s new album. This tune is called, “Cough Up the Bucks”. Fucking cool song in my opinion. I want to cover this song myself, so I’ll figure it out by ear.

It’s got a cool chorus line, “Cough up the bucks, cough up the bucks”, you can sing a line like that all day long. Neil Young, a musical genius. I love him musically to death. He’s a hero of mine and inspiration. He proves you don’t have to be a great singer to do what you love to do. Making music.

Neil Young’s “Fork In the Road” is his best record in years!!!

Leave a comment

THIS ALBUM IS FUCKING AMAZING!!!!! This is Neil Young’s best solo record since 1989’s “Freedom”. This is probably his most energetic and tight album he’s ever done in a long time. I would reccomend this album to all whether you’re a Neil Young fan or not. It has some of the best guitar playing I ever heard, the songs are very catchy and Neil’s vocals seem to improve in this album. He maybe getting old, but this man seems to doesn’t give up the music and he still rocks. Although most music of today is total shit, I think Neil Young’s “Fork In the Road” is so far, the best album of the year.

The Listening Room: Hear Neil Young’s “Fork In the Road” album in it’s entirety in myspace!!!

Leave a comment

Neil Young is letting the public hear his new studio album, “Fork In the Road” in it’s entirety before release date April 7th in his myspace page.

I just listened to the whole thing this morning, I think it’s absolutely fucking amazing!!!! It’s Neil Young’s best since “Living With War”. There’s not one mellow and slow song on this album. It’s very much very tight and energetic electric guitar driven rock throughout the entire album. The vocal melodies are very impressive. Great job Neil.

I’m definitely picking up this album…hear it here:

Cool Video: Neil Young premieres “Johnny Magic” official video…new song…

Leave a comment

Neil Young premiere’s a new single off his new upcoming album, “Fork in the Road”. The name of the new single, “Johnny Magic”, the video is exclusively at yahoo music.

The video is nothing much, it’s just Neil Young driving a car, and singing along to the song on the radio. Neil finally decides to take a break from politics and write songs about other things for once. Neil maybe getting old, but he’s still a fuckin’ badass and a killer songwriter! Great video and great song Neil! It’s nice to see Neil have a sense of humor! Comedy in this video, indeed!

Report: Neil Young announced he is releasing another new album with Crazy Horse…

Leave a comment

The legendary rocker and acoustic artist Neil Young had just announced on his website, he will be releasing yet another new album with his longtime band Crazy Horse, the new album will be titled “Toast”. Back in the year 2000, Neil Young and Crazy Horse recorded in a studio in the south of Market street, the studio was called “Toast” where Young got the album title from. John Coltrane and other jazz greats recorded there. Young and Crazy Horse recorded in that studio over the years, with many of the work has not even been finished yet. The songs on the album are described as “bluesy” and “jazzy”. Young recorded a song with Booker T and the MG’s back in the old days, the song has been resurfaced and he plans on releasing it to the new album.

Neil Young continues to release album after album, year after year, he just never quits and never takes a break. Last year he just released “Chrome Dreams II” with Crazy Horse.

From Neil Young’s official website:

To be honest I didn’t really like “Chrome Dreams II” that much. I hope “Toast” will be a good one.

I still think “Living With War” is his best album ever made and nothing will top that in my opinion.
