That ironic rock n roll album he did in the 80 to get back at geffin

by Nightjar Sat Feb 15, 2020 9:00 pm

Yeah.

I'd rather not either.

That said, I do love NY and have heard every one of his (good) albums countless times.

Tonight's the Night the most forlornly epic and complete work though.

Zuma could be good.

Or even Come's a Time. happy

Re-Actor!

by Nightjar Sat Feb 15, 2020 9:02 pm

That's it.

Re-Actor!

I've made the decision. box

Yes let’s do trans

Not as bad as it’s reputation.

Re:act:tor is alright but a bit one note

by Nightjar Sun Feb 16, 2020 9:15 am

C'mon man, we can't do Trans.

I'll concede we can't do Re-Actor, but Trans, really?

It's novel for sure, but that novelty wears off pretty d*rn quickly.

I'd plump for his first album instead.

Y'know, the one with the ghastly, lurid painted portrait on the cover...

I haven't listened to it in a while and recall that it's a bit of curate's egg.

Naive and quaint even.

Oh, and I think Re-Actor is badly underrated. Colbert

by Guest Sun Feb 16, 2020 9:21 am

There's only vocoder on a couple of the tracks, it's actually more of standard, ie not as good as the 70s stuff but not horrid, early 80s Neil Young album.

I remember thinking the first Neil Young Album sounded like a different artist. It was alright, if a bit forgettable. I think. I forget.

shifty

I also like Re*Ac*tor, strangely overlooked in the God father O'grunge tiresome nonsense.

I'm not doing that one.

Even if it is only 25 minutes long. hmm

Mind you, the response to 'A Man Need a Maid' from FG3 + Wendkins could be entertaining.

I've realised that I've been mixing up Neil Young and Neil Diamond.

by Nightjar Sun Feb 16, 2020 2:27 pm

I had a friend (God rest his soul) at art school who used to commonly refer to Neil Young as "Paul Young".

When I pointed out his mistake to him he said "oh, I always did wonder why people looked quizzical and/or unimpressed whenever I said I liked his stuff".

Perhaps we should get a further opinion on the album.

by Guest Tue Feb 18, 2020 6:01 pm

The Background music is irritating. All you can hear is that Bob Dylan NNiiinNNNNeeee noise.

by **The Call of the Wendigo** Tue Feb 18, 2020 6:02 pm

I felt it was too loud as well.
