For his umpteenth previously unreleased archive, Neil Young homes in on a snippet of his golden era, in the early seventies. Recorded on February 5th, 1973 at the University of Alabama, Tuscaloosa stems from his tour with the Stray Gators, a band that features Ben Keith on the pedal steel, Jack Nitzsche on the piano, Tim Drummond on the bass and Kenny Buttrey on the drums. It was a tour that was already documented on the official album Time Fades Away (October 1973) and during which the Loner mostly performed songs from Harvest (February 1972) and his upcoming albums, On the Beach (July 1974) and Tonight the Night (June 1975).

Put together with his sound engineer John Hanlon, this archive doesn’t include the complete show, as the Canadian explained on his website: “ We don’t like to release a lot of songs on many albums, so On The Way Home went by the wayside. The Loner was just not good enough. I still make those decisions because I am here on the planet. However, those two versions will be available in the archives for members to hear. I have no plans to release everything I have ever recorded. Some of it is just not good enough.” As always with Neil Young’s archives, they are mostly targeted at collectors and hard-core fans. Novices would be better advised to listen to the studio versions of these songs, which are nevertheless recorded here in excellent concert versions. © Marc Zisman/Qobuz
