Product Description
CD Description
By the time Neil Young played The Cow Palace in San Francisco on the evening of 21st November, 1986 as part of his Live in a Rusted Garage with Crazy Horse tour, he had already released 16 solo albums, three more with Buffalo Springfield and another three with Crosby, Stills & Nash or members thereof. And while across this staggering body of work, amassed by the time this troubadour of troubadours had reached only his 40th year, there were highs and lows, the overall quality and influence of his work by this juncture in his career was unsurpassed in the world of contemporary music. This spectacular show was caught in all its magnificence by KLOS FM, and broadcast across the airwaves for all to witness. At well over two hours long, and boasting impeccable sound quality, Young draws from his full catalogue of work for this momentous concert. In a boisterous yet jovial mood, and displaying so much of his unique guitar work, plus forays with harmonica, vocoder and even a telephone, this performance illustrates perfectly - if anyone is still in doubt - what all the fuss is about .
Product Description

OK so this hasn't arrived on the scene via Neil's official company, however as this was a broadcast by KLOS FM in LA, the sound is pretty good, although the crowd noise is very loud at times. Cow Palace was not designed as a concert hall, but there were some great gigs there (check out Live At The Cow Palace: New Year'S Eve 1976 for starters), and this was surely one of them.
We have a wide selection of Neil's music from the Springfield's Mr Soul which opens the show to the famous acoustic works such as Heart of Gold & After the Goldrush to not so popular (with some folks)songs from Trans, Sample & Hold and Computer Age. The classics Down By The River, Cortez & Hurricane are all worth a listen. So a great concert from the 80s which runs for about 2hr 10min at well under a tenner - bargain.
Packaging is a slimline plastic jewel case in a cardboard slip case (why the slip case) - it's not my choice, but it does the job I guess, after all it's the music that counts, and that's simply great!!

This release is on the quite excellent Left Field label who have released radio broadcasts by Bruce Springsteen, and the overall quality is just outstanding. This one's by Neil Young and Crazy Horse and comprises a 2CD set from a gig in 1986, but don't let this put you off becausae this is a superb live set by one of rock's greatest pereformers at the top of his game. Full of classic Neil songs upto the time of the tour plus eight from the album 'Life' that wouldn't appear till the next year, a total of 129 minutes of 24 songs oh and the odd telephone call and his noivecoder which he used a bit at this time.Of the classics we have the timeless 'Heart Of Gold' a real standout version, 'After The Goldrush', 'Cortez The Killer', 'Down By The River', 'Hey Hey My My', 'Powderfinger', 'Like A Hurricane', a real greatest hits from Neil at the time of this tour.Crazy Horse at their very best add a real depth to his songs. Neil Young then and now is one of the greatest performers there is, an awesome songwriter,guitarist and a voice that brings every song to its greatness. This is I feel one no Neil fan will want to miss at any price, but if you've never yet spent time in his musical company give this a listen and you'll see why he remains and always has been a classic artist.From rockin' electric awesome driving rock such as the opening 'Mr. Soul' to the beauty of his acoustic outings such as 'Inca Queen' make this such a special set.. Crazy Horse deserve a mention as Mr's Sampredo,Molina and Talbot really add to make oit so enjoyable.The great news is that arrarantly Neil's just completed a new album with Crazy Horse for this year and also working on another as well.Uminmissable radio broadcasts from California 5 stars plus a classic album without doubt.

2 CD set from Neil Young's much maligned Geffen period, this live set features Crazy Horse, arguably Neil's best band performing hits and misses from his carrier up to that date plus as is common with a Neil young concert music not yet released (at the time) which later appeared on the 'Life' (seven songs) his last for Geffen album, plus songs from 'Trans' 'Sample and hold' and 'Computer Age' as well as one only from 'Landing on Water' the album this tour would have been supporting 'Violent side'. I would suggest that despite there being a lot of songs from this period this is a great concert and over the two CDs (120 minutes) you also get classics such as a 'down by the River' 'Like a Hurricane' and 'Mr Soul'. The music is as well played as you would expect from a Neil Young and Crazy Horse album, and Neil seems to be having fun during the recording. The crowd are very strangely edited at times but this is still a good honest recording.
The concert was originally recorded from Radio (KLOS) and the sound quality as such is much better than your average bootleg. I am not sure this is though an officially sanctioned release but I do applaud Leftfield media for getting this concert out, and would recommend this to any fan of Neil Young, especially at the reasonable price from this 2CD set.
If you are new to Neil's music, this is not going to find him new fans go buy the core albums first.

Thoughts on Cow Palace CDs
I like to hear most musicians live as this strips away most of the 'smoothing' done by a studio. Therefore I am always interested in live recordings. Read more

Almost terrifically brilliant
Why almost?
A couple of things really. Main grouch, the vocoder synthed vocals on a couple of tracks are so far down in the mix as to be inaudible. Read more
