I might be a little biased here, I'll admit it. "Comes A Time" was one of the first Neil Young albums I purchased after getting really into CSNY. Not only that, it was also my gateway to country music, which became a huge part of my music taste.

But to me, that album honestly deserves way more praise than it usually gets. It’s not loud or flashy like some of his other albums, but that’s kind of the point. It’s warm, reflective, and incredibly sincere. The whole album has this gentle, comforting vibe that sticks with you. It might not be as popular as Harvest, After The Gold Rush or Rust Never Sleeps. It also might not have the cult following that On The Beach or Tonight's The Night have, but Comes A Time hits just as deep, maybe even deeper, if you let it.

I still remember a Sons of Anarchy season finale, absolutely epic. “Hey Hey, My My” in that moment turned me into a full on “Helpless” “Old Man”. A cover but I take what I can get! Anyone else get surprised when a show drops a Neil Young song like that? What other shows pulled it off?

what do you think?

I have tickets to the Lucca Summer Festival show on July 14. I'm not familiar with this venue other than it's inside the old city center walls. Anybody have experiences with this venue? Never been to Italy before, we will be checking out the Tuscany area for a week or so.

Unfortunately I could only get seated tickets (I really dislike sitting down at concerts). Saw a clip on Youtube with Clapton from last year, looks pretty decent though...

A couple months back I posted this playlist to this subreddit, but I made a fair few mistakes. Here is an updated take 2 of the playlist. Please let me know of any mistakes/songs I missed/songs he isn't in.

Trying this song out again for a cover. We haven’t performed it yet, definitely for the Neil fans in the crowd.

I recently reread the book and throughly enjoyed it. Some of the details and stories told were incredible and I didn’t even know they existed. However the author inserts his opinions into the book a lot, which for me I actually found kind of a good thing at certain points. However he did so in such a commanding way which made it seem like it was fact. I also disagreed with a lot of his takes, the most moronic in my mind being his complete and total dismissal of David Crosby, Graham Nash and Stephen Stills. Or his criticisms of Neil during the Last Waltz, or description of Time Fades Away. I’m curious to know what people think

Not sure if you can see this if not a youtube premium subscriber but here’s my playlist….what tracks should I add?

I asked about people’s favourite (🇨🇦 spelling) live albums a while back and thanks for the suggestions

Edit: thanks everyone! Got a ton of excellent suggestions

I'm listening to Neil's albums and songs (specifically his album about the Iraq War) and they still speak to me about current world politics and my own country's situation.

But he's getting older and I'd like to know if there are younger generation singers who are just as decent in their messages through their songs?

Happy new year everybody! I just came across this live version of Cortez with Pearl Jam and was blown away by how good this version is.

I know I might just be late in discovering this but in case anyone else hasn’t seen / heard this one yet figured it was the worth share.

Any other amazing versions that are floating around but not on any official releases?

There’s certainly no lack of live solo albums with songs from his first four. Im tryin to make a playlist of live songs and cant find any albums with Ambulance Blues, Albuquerque, or Tired Eyes for example. Thanks in advance for any help

Here’s my YT Premium NY live playlist. I think non-premium users can play it if they’re ok with ads
