Neil files for divorce from Pegi Young after 36 years of marriage. Sad news.

That is sad, considering the work they've done together for the Bridge School. Hopefully they can continue that.

Probably in some capacity, they will. I believe she is no longer listed on the bill of musicians performing at this year's benefit shows, but she is releasing a new album in the fall.

Listening to some of the classic albums tonight. I've seen a bit of him with Lukas Nelson's band, sounds even better than Crazy Horse. Has anyone seen his recent shows?

I know this is a quote from 2012 but it's no less funny. Or sad, maybe?

The first one took so long to get out it shouldn't be a surprise that the 2nd one will either. But yeah I'd say it's a bit of both.

It's been so long that Neil's said that Time Fades Away II will be on Volume 2.In October 2009, Young told Guitar World that a disc titled Time Fades Away II will be included in the second volume of the Archives box set series, noting: "It's interesting because [Time Fades Away II] has a different drummer than what was on that album. Kenny Buttrey was in there for the first half, and Johnny Barbata came in for the second. It's a completely different thing, with completely different songs."[23]

I watched his movie Muddy Track today. A nice (but warped, shot on some of the worst VHS I've ever seen outside of home videos) hodgepodge of footage, featuring Neil and Crazy Horse touring Europe in 1987. A good amount of the footage made it's way onto Jim Jarmusch's Year of the Horse, including what's probably my favorite scene of either film, where they're rehearsing vocal harmonies on "Cortez the Killer".
Two of his other, more well-known films, Rust Never Sleeps and Human Highway are coming out on Blu-ray next month.

Neil Young: Archives 2 latest news!
Earlier this year, Neil Young gave Uncut an update about the status of his anticipated Archives 2 project.
“I’m putting a website out, probably just before Christmas,” he told us. “It’ll be my entire archives on a website. You can listen to music, and you’ll see where albums are that are penciled in, not finished. From throughout a 40 or 50-year span, you’ll see unfinished records behind you, in front of you, right now, way in the future.”
Now Young’s manager, Elliot Roberts, has further updated Billboard on this second volume, telling them it is “nearly completed and should surface in 2017”.
“Neil has a whole series of Shakey Films that we’ve done through the years,” Roberts says. “We haven’t really had a chance to put a lot of them out. Either he tours or starts doing an album or moves on to the next one. But we have about six or seven full-length films that will be coming out over the course of the next two years. These are really the first two.”
The contents include Hal Ashby‘s film of Young’s 1982-83 one-man Trans Tour, a Tim Pope chronicle of an early Young concert in England, and 2003’s Greendale.
This is excellent news for Young fans, following on from the announcement that four of Young’s classic albums – the long out of print 1973’s Time Fades Away, 1974’s On The Beach and 1975 Tonight’s The Night and Zuma – are coming on Septemer 6.
Roberts says Young has finally signed off on Time Fades Away, Archives 2 should arrive next year.
“Neil had a lot of things that were important to us – not because they sold well,” Roberts notes. “I think of it as we’re introducing him to a younger audience, a new audience. We know there’s our core audience that’s 50-70 or so. That’s always been the case, and it’s nice to actually have. But it’s like discovering Dylan – you may like EDM, but at some point in your life you’ll be into Dylan and you’ll get it, whether you’re 23, 24, 21 or 26. Discovering Neil or discovering those catalogs, that material. It’s still fun for Neil to create. He doesn’t mind going back or going forward.”
I was nobody. Nothing.
Exciting, @allegater !
I adore Neil. His work was guitar 101 for me when i was a child, and i've grown to appreciate more with every passing year.
And it's awesome that he's still working.
Active Member
That's interesting, I just thought it would collect material from a 10-year period like the first one did. I'll withhold judgement on whether this is disappointing or not but it's a little surprising.

as a cinematographer I hate it ��

Glad I got this one on vinyl to match my OG first pressing of the studio album. It's the only one of Neil's recent "new old" albums I've bought so far, though I've been streaming them all on Tidal.neil from the ditch. this is a stunner people

I am currently stuck on the Old Homestead disc. So many fucking beautiful tracks. This whole box is a triumph; I didn't realize there was such a great depth of material Neil cast aside for whatever reason. "Frozen Man" is an absolute stunner — and he never used it for anything!! What!!!
Do yourself a favour and sign up for the Archives site to stream this puppy NOW.

See, that last sentence is why I'm not: I'm not a streaming person at all. That and I'm beyond pissed that I bought the first Archives on Blu-Ray right about the same time he decided to take the BD-Live downloads down so I never got to hear them. And then Pono going ass over tea-kettle?
God is an American
Well the Pono thing was predictable. Other companies do a great job with portable DAPs, there was literally no need for Neil to make his own.
I understand why people don't like streaming on the major sites but everything wrong with them is just not there on NYA. Immersive, informative visual interface and super high quality sound for dirt cheap ($20/year!) ... kind of a no-brainer if you're a fan of his.
Active Member
yeah, Pono was just the proverbial straw that's all.
The amount of time I'm actually in front of my computer at home is almost nil so I always have downloaded music with me.

I was bored and saw that I had already quoted you on this in 2016. With Vol II out it seems he only sort of got this one right.
"Time Fades Away" (4:21) – Neil Young with The Stray Gators – previously unreleased version
God is an American
I am really digging the new "bootleg series", with a bunch of terrific concerts from the 70s restored from the best sources and seeing wider release in physical form as well as on streaming platforms outside Neil's own Archives site. Finally hearing the whole Royce Hall performance (which the Harvest take of "Needle and the Damage Done" comes from), the infamous Bottom Line '74 tape, Carnegie Hall '70 — all excellent in their own ways. I think I need to make a supercut of Young Shakespeare, Massey Hall '71, Royce and Dorothy Chandler Hall to fabricate the ultimate solo set.

Oh hell yeah. The Carnegie show is one of my favorite Neil record, and I've got a lot of Neil records. Not Bootleg Series, but the recent Way Down In The Rust Bucket boxset is another scorcher.
