    I didn’t see a dedicated thread on this yet (point me to it if you can find one). The new Neil Young/Crazy Horse album is produced by Rick Rubin and will be called World Record. CD, LP, and clear vinyl variants.

    Songs include “Break The Train” and “Chevrolet”.

    What no CD/LP/Blu-Ray deluxe edition? :D

    That is great news, thanks!

    Hmm... does this delay any more archival releases for 20-22?

    Based on Neil’s release schedule over the past several years, I don’t see why it would. :laugh:

    Rubin's "production" is likely him laying in the floor while Neil tells him what he wants done.

    Always look forward to new NY&CH.

    The stories I’m finding are calling this an “as-yet untitled” album. I like World Record though. Is there a source for this title?

    Yeah, I’m really not sure what any producer particularly brings to the table on a Neil Young record anymore. I’m not even sure either one of them gets any real cachet from putting the other’s name on something. This feels like they just kind of wanted to work together, right?

    I guess we’ll find out. Any new NY&CH album is a pre-order for me.

    Will be interesting to see if Neil's desire for sound quality will beat out Rubin's need to brick wall everything.

    This gives me hope. The quality control really nosedived after Briggs died.

    Bring it on.

    I don’t expect a Johnny Cash style revival as Neil is already too creatively vital, but Rubin could potentially help triage quality control and completion in a positive way,

    A legitimate question. I am always happy to support a new Neil Young record, but as a fan, I am much more interested in his archival releases at this point and do not want new product to delay releases from the vault. Still, I am hopeful he has one more real good new album left in him, and maybe this will be the one.

    Very cool …and as a fan too, I am far more interested in new material he might create than versions of stuff we already have (unless he has a Chrome Dreams III hidden away).

    Different strokes and all that.

    I feel the opposite… I already have enough archive stuff, and most of it just ends up being different versions of the same songs. Give me new songs.

    The last Archives box included several new songs.

    Sure, there are sometimes unreleased songs in the archive releases. And I do sometimes buy the archive releases. But I’d still rather have new songs, as in created by Neil in our current time.

    However, it doesn’t seem like he’s making us choose one or the other. The guy seems willing to put a record out every other month, if he’s allowed to. :laugh:

    I’m interested in a new album or archival release from Neil. I’m glad he’s managing to mine two veins with such a well realized archival project and continuing to record new material that he cares about.

    Honestly, the releases I’ve enjoyed the most over the last several years have tended to been from the archival end. Hitchhiker, Homegrown, Tuscaloosa, Roxy, Toast, and especially Rust Bucket have been such an incredible joy.

    A lot of bands/artists that I love haven’t managed to record half that number of albums of great material.

    On the new studio album front, I’ve felt that it’s been much more hit or miss… but that being said, there have been gems in there like Welcome Back, that make a record at least worth the price of admission.

    I’m a physical album person… and I’ll say I’ve completely shifted to cds, just because it’s so much more affordable than vinyl.

    I can appreciate that, but I would rather hear Neil during his creative peak.

    No link but the source is legit.

    I typically would, too, on a given day, but I already have a lot of records of that. I’m still more likely to play Zuma or After the Gold Rush than any of the archive releases, and I think that, for the most part, the best stuff was what got released during those periods.

    I’m again not saying he should stop releasing archive stuff to focus on new music. He seems capable of doing both. But, for me, a new album is a no-question pre-order, while I’m more selective with archive purchases. I’m OK just streaming some of those.
