But now I feel empathy for the people who have been so manipulated and had their beliefs used as political weapons. Young has also maintained a steady presence in the news for other activities, including selling 50 percent of his songwriting catalog in a mega-deal with Hipgnosis for $150M and, most recently, This project comes on the heels of a busy few weeks for Neil Young, as the legendary singer/songwriter released a 50th anniversary edition of After the Gold Rush in December, which followed the Return to Greendale live album/film a month earlier.

Maybe that's why Way Down in the Rust Bucket feels transcendent: It captures the world's greatest bar band in their spiritual home. For a dirty, grungy rock'n'roll band, there's no better place to hold communion than the local pub, where the separation between artist and audience can be so thin, it may as well be nonexistent. They're surrounded by garage rockers and reconstituted anthems of the counterculture, songs designed to be played and heard in a communal setting. Context also gives these seemingly endless workouts a different vibe. Crazy Horse lumber toward bliss, goosed along by a leader who seems so enraptured by his own solos he doesn't want to break the spell. This is a joyous record, where even the melancholy epics 'Like a Hurricane' and 'Cortez the Killer' skirt sadness. or those who consider the joyous stomp of Neil Young & Crazy Horse rock & roll comfort food at its best, this is a feast to savor, a long and rollicking celebration of the pleasures of turning up the amps and inviting in the spirit. At a later date a stand-alone DVD will also be released at NYA.
