Advantages: Great Songs Throughout, That Stand Together As A Great Cohesive Piece Of Work Disadvantages: Not Quite As Accessible As Harvest
sounding exactly as I would expect a final track to sound, it has an air of finality, that is often lacking on many closing tracks.
I have always enjoyed Neil Young?s work and his ability as a song writer has never been in doubt, and that point is clear here, with many tracks providing, as they should, multiple angles to a certain idea, or a suggestion of further ideas left unsaid. It is though still quite a light, enjoyable album, and includes many tracks that leave you simply enamoured with the unique (in a good way) vocals of Neil Young, whom I have always seen as a great vocalist, moving away from generic forms. And despite its short length, coming in at just over thirty-five minutes (the norm for many early Neil Young releases), it feels somehow complete, and not lacking depth or quality, which it has in abundance.

The heavy sense of loss and longing also hangs over this record like a calming breeze, particularly in the Needle and the Damage done, a heart-felt song written about Danny Whitten - guitar player in Neil's part time backing band "Crazy Horse".The line "every junkie's like a setting sun" always stands out in a way that is both timeless, evocative and beautiful.

Neil to this today remains an unbowed man who ...

All these songs transcends age and all barriers.
After Gold Rush he went through a very bad period in his life in a sense that he had to withstand the trauma of a broken marriage, got himself a severely injured back and amid all this came "Harvest" no doubt the best collection of song by Neil Young in which he had as guest artists like James Tailor and Linda Rondstat.
In Harvest Neil Young broods on love like in ?A Man Needs A Maid?.
He says
"I will go some where I don?t know when
I was watching a movie with a friend
I fell in love with the actress.
She was playing a part that I could understand
Maid, a man needs a maid
When will I see you again?"
Talking about Drug abuse in ?The Needle And The Damage Is Done? Young ruminates
"..I?ve seen ...
