Product Description
Amazon.co.uk Review
CD Description
After forty years in the vaults, this early Neil Young sololive recording finally sees the light of day. Recorded shortly after he left Buffalo Springfield, the performance was an experiment to see whether audiences would take to Young asa solo artist, the answer to which was obviously a resounding yes. This unique historical document provides a fascinating snapshot for Young's fans of a formative period in the nascent artist's career and is presented here in both CD and high-definition DVDA formats.
Recorded in Michigan in 1968, Neil Young’s Sugar Mountain concert at Canterbury House was performed during a transitional period for the singer-songwriter. Buffalo Springfield had recently dissolved and the 21-year-old Young was tentatively feeling his way towards a solo career. There are no orchestral embellishments here – it’s literally just Young, his guitar and a steady flow of stories and audience banter. Versions of “Mr Soul” and “Expecting to Fly” are stripped right down to the basics, and Buffalo Springfield tracks like "Broken Arrow" and “Nowadays Clancy Can’t Even Sing” are rendered more naked and honest in the same way. These songs are punctuated with newer material like “The Old Laughing Lady,” and "Birds" (which would show up on After The Gold Rush a couple of years later), as well as the singer’s often amusing anecdotes, which range from the rigors of owning a Bentley to being sacked from a bookstore for being high on “diet pills”. While not as immersive as Live At Massey Hall, Sugar Mountain is an alluring profile of a singer on the cusp of an outstanding career. --Danny McKenna
