Free Music Notes for Freedom
Free Music Review: Freedom--9 Years, But Still Strong
Hit: 5 Stars
Found this album (cassette) at a used music store while traveling in Asia some 9 years ago. What I had then was a cassette player, and this album was the ultimate travel buddy. Though I have bought the CD version now, I still keep the old one for good old times' sake. This is one of my favorites. In the mellow and melancholy theme, I can still see the landscapes of India and South East Asia vividly when I listen to this album. "Rockin' in the Free World" needs no introduction--in fact, I heard this song at Lollapalooza '07 performed by some kids (maybe 13 yrs olds). That brings to mind, how Neil Young's music has transcended generations.
Every track is excellent: "Crime in the City," "Don't Cry," "Someday," "Hangin' on a Limb," "Eldorado," "On Broadway," "No More," and "Wrecking Ball." And "The Ways of Love" and "Too Far Gone" are Neil Young's nuggets.
Overall, a soft and sweet 5-star album.
Freedom Poster
Freedom was Young's return to form after almost a decade of electronic experiments and mediocre novelty music. "Rockin' in the Free World," a howling anthem about homelessness, depression, and drug dealing, bookends the album--and, in 1989, proved the singer/songwriter hadn't completely dropped into obscurity. The romantic ballads ("The Ways of Love"), grunge-predicting guitar-rockers (a siren-screaming version of "On Broadway"), and one amazing, punk-like story-song ("Crime in the City [Sixty to Zero, Part I]") constitute Young's strongest writing in years. --Steve KnopperPop Music CDs
