Liner Notes
Eldorado circulated as a collector's holy grail for over three decades, the kind of release that serious Young devotees hunted through import bins and tape trees long before the internet made such things easier. Recorded during a period when Young was in full electric overdrive mode, the session captures a raw, uncompromising guitar energy that connects directly to the ragged glory he'd chase with Crazy Horse for years to come.
In April 1989, Neil Young released the 5-track mini-album Eldorado on CD in Japan and Australia under the name “Neil Young and the Restless”. Neil (guitar & vocals) was backed by Rick Rosas on bass and Chad Cromwell on drums, with long-time Crazy Horse band-mate Frank “Poncho” Sampedro contributing guitar on the title track. Long sought after by Neil Young fans, this wonderful album and guitar tour-de-force finally gets a worldwide release on CD, and the first US release on vinyl outside of Australia. Number ORS 21 in Neil’s Official Release Series, the album comprises of 4 Neil Young compositions, plus a cover of the American standard “On Broadway”, written by Leiber, Stoller, Weil and Mann.
