Neil Young – Harvest Moon (CD)
Product Details
Two decades after "Harvest" made him a household name, Young returned to the quiet side of his musical identity, the one that lives in open tunings, pedal steel, and songs that feel like they were written sitting on a porch at dusk. Linda Ronstadt and James Taylor lend their voices here, and the result is an album rooted in the same dusty Americana warmth that made Young a touchstone for generations of songwriters who followed.
Harvest Moon is the twentieth studio album by Canadian musician Neil Young, released on October 27, 1992. Many of the musicians appearing on it also appeared on his 1972 album Harvest, and it is considered by many to be like a "sequel" to Harvest.
Recovering from a case of tinnitus that had come about after the recording of 1990's Ragged Glory and its subsequent tour (which produced 1991's Weld and Arc), Young was determined to return to the studio. Returning to Nashville and joining up with compatriots like Ben Keith, Young put down the electric guitar and returned to the acoustic guitar, piano, and banjo that had dominated albums such as Harvest, Comes a Time, and Old Ways.
The album earned the 1994 Juno Award for Album of the Year. The 2009 release Dreamin' Man is a live album from the 1992 tour and features live renditions of all Harvest Moon tracks in a different order. Certified Multi-Platinum (2 times)by the RIAA. (6/94)
