Free Music Notes for Comes a TimeFree Music Review: JAPAN REMASTERED VERSION AVAILABLE Hit: 4 Stars
A while back, Warner Brothers Japan re-released 12 Neil Young titles. The surprise was that remastered content appeared for the first time on most of them.
The titles & WB-Japan catalog numbers are:
Neil Young WPCR-75086
Everybody Knows This Is Nowhere WPCR-75087
After The Gold Rush WPCR-75088
Harvest WPCR-75089
On The Beach WPCR-75090
Tonight's The Night WPCR-75091
Zuma WPCR-75092
Long May You Run WPCR-75093
American Stars n' Bars WPCR-75094
Comes A Time WPCR-75095
Rust Never Sleeps WPCR-75096
Live Rust WPCR-75097
I picked up most of these, A/B'd them, and found them to be superior to the domestics. However, having purchased the domestic 2002 remasters of "Beach" and "Stars n Bars", I declined the Japan versions of those two titles.
Unfortunately, while the Japan version is remastered, Live Rust is not restored to the original LP's running form, and remains still the bastardized version.
If you own the U.S. versions, and you're a NY fan, I would seriously consider replacing them with these.
Free Music Review: Back to Great Folk-Country sounds Hit: 5 StarsHaving recently purchased the DVD " Heart of Gold " I wanted something that had my favorite songs off that DVD on a CD. " Comes a Time " was it, and I was surprised how fast the delivery was, even out here in Australia. The title song is perhaps my favorite Neil Young number, and I play the CD all the time now. It's great to be able to listen to some great music, and especially with a great backing vocalist in Nicolette Larson. I'm one very satisfied customer.
Free Music Review: It is too good. Hit: 5 StarsI have difficulty expressing hwo good this album is. One of the perfect elements is Nicolette Larson...no one since Emmylou Harris has been able to sing harmony with Neil like Nicolette (RIP, we truly miss you). "Comes A Time" and "Lotta Love" alone make this one of the greatest albums out of the '70's. I am unable to understand how a musician can put so much emotion into a signel song...it breaks and mends hearts in a matter of seconds. Phenomenal.
You will find no better. Please buy this album...it will make you laugh, weep and sing...no one can best Neil Young.
RIP Nicolette, we miss you dearly.
Free Music Review: A lot of good music here.... Hit: 5 StarsI bought this album back in '78 when it was first released and my college roommate and I played it until we wore the grooves out. I've been a Neil fan a long time and I have a lot of his music, but this album has always ranked near the top for me.
Free Music Review: A Personal Favorite Hit: 5 StarsI can't say anything bad about a Neil Young Album, so this is no different. However, this one is a personal favorite of mine. In these songs Neil shows a more mellow easy-going contented side. This music just makes you feel good. It has an "americana" feel to it that takes you back to better and less confusing times. The title song "Comes a Time" conveys the message of how Neil was feeling at the time of this album. If when the world all around you is crazy, you have to think about the basics like the love of a woman and children, and a realization that there is a time for doing what comes naturally. Some people have even tagged this one as a kind of sellout or safe album for Neil, and I can understand why, but when Neil has covered so much ground in his career, it seems only fitting that he would cover the good times with good time music. This one is worth having especially for the real fans.
