Liner Notes

Remarkably, it took Young until 2004 to release his first official hits collection, a fact that says everything about an artist who spent decades prioritizing albums as complete artistic statements over commercial convenience. Compiled directly from original analog masters at his own Redwood Ranch Studios, this is as close to a definitive introduction as Young's catalog allows, drawing from a body of work that runs from Buffalo Springfield through Crazy Horse and beyond.

Neil Young His first ever greatest-hits collection, Greatest Hits is a long-awaited retrospective from one of rock's most influential and enduring singer-songwriters. With 16 selections spanning his entire career since 1969, Greatest Hits features some of the greatest hits of rock'n'roll, period. This collection was assembled and prepared by John Knowland, at Neil Young's Redwood Ranch Studios. The meticulous studio work presented in this collection ensures that this is the very best these songs have ever sounded. For the collection, 30 IPS, flat tape copies of tracks 1-14, were assembled from the original analog masters. Tracks 15 and 16 were transferred from up-converted 176.4/24 bit digital masters created from the original lower res. digital masters. CD/DVD package includes the original stereo master mixes (for highest resolution listening), photo gallery and other bonuses. When a song is played via the DVD, the screen shows the original vinyl album spinning on a turntable as the needle goes to the appropriate groove and progresses in synch with incredible audio clarity with the song.
