omschrijving
(50TH ANNIVERSARY EDITION) / 3CD+2DVD HARDCOVER BOOK
Neil Young brengt een speciale editie uit van het album Harvest, de
iconische plaat uit 1972 bestaat namelijk 50 jaar. Young's vierde
soloalbum blijft een van de meest geliefde in zijn catalogus en staat
vol met nummers die er nog altijd toe doen. De release bestaat uit het
originele album, drie studio outtakes en een nog niet eerder
uitgebrachte opname van zijn BBC solo optreden uit 1971. Daarnaast komt
ook een documentaire van twee uur beschikbaar uit 1971 waarin de
Harvest-sessies zijn vastgelegd. Ook bevat de box ook een booklet en
uitvouwbare poster.
A Bountiful Harvest: 50th Anniversary Box Set of 1972 Neil Young Record
Features Original Album and BBC In Concert on Vinyl LPs, Outtakes 7",
BBC In Concert and Harvest Time DVDs, and Hardbound Book
"Only harvest some?" The question Neil Young asks on his third proper
solo album, the best-selling LP of 1972, becomes moot on this 50th
anniversary box set celebrating the record's brilliance and the aura
surrounding it. Encompassing the original Harvest album and BBC In
Concert (February 23, 1971) on two vinyl LPs; a Harvest Outtakes 7"; two
previously unreleased DVDs (BBC In Concert and Harvest Time) featuring a
concert performance and footage recorded during the sessions,
respectively; and hardbound book loaded with previously unseen
photographs, this reissue is the ultimate edition of the record many
consider Young's finest.
Moored by old-time country and traditional folk, and bridged with
reflections on love and commitment, Harvest spawned the classics "Heart
of Gold" and "Old Man" as well as the affecting "The Needle and the
Damage Done." One of Rolling Stone's 100 Greatest Albums of All-Time, it
also branches out beyond acoustic-based material and incorporates
stabbing guitar-driven swamp rock ("Alabama"), hayride jigs ("Are You
Ready for the Country?"), and orchestral pop ("There's A World") into
its broad swath.
The music is both a release and a meditation, the stripped-down
structures and economical playing conspiring to deliver maximum feeling
and slow-burn impact. Steel guitarist Ben Keith, bassist Tim Drummond,
pianist/arranger Jack Nitzsche, and drummer Kenny Buttrey contribute to
most songs along with a series of special guests that include David
Crosby, Graham Nash, Linda Ronstadt, and James Taylor.
