LA Weekly celebrates shows with “Best Album” pick

Written by Shar on 24 February 2014

“Neil Young Is Coming! This Is His Best Album Ever,” the articled starts out in LA Weekly review.

“When we were good and drunk, we would put Neil Young’s American Stars ‘n Bars on the record player,” writes music critic Kai Flanders. He talks about his favorite album in celebration of Neil Young’s threeupcoming shows at the Dolby Theatre in Hollywood, March 29 and 30, and April 1.

He’s a great storyteller, you will enjoy this one.

“Often, the melancholy waltz of American Stars ‘n Bars would soundtrack our drinking sessions. Stars is Young’s eighth studio album, which came out in 1977 on the heels of Zuma and the Ditch Trilogy. Upon its release Rolling Stone declared, ‘Right now … it would be just about impossible to overrate Neil Young.’ The storied guitar work on “Like A Hurricane” is balanced by the earnest yearning of ‘Hey Babe.'”

Rolling Stone writer Andy Greene writes a little lengthier article on Neil Young’s duo LA shows scheduled for March.

The LA Times is reporting that Young’s representative said the two Dolby shows will feature different set lists.

Fan Karen Popp is reporting that a notice is already being posted on the ticket website that anyone causing disruptions will be asked to step outside to view the monitor and no refunds or exchanges will be allowed. This, following some incidents that occurred in the front row at Carnegie Hall back in January.

Greene writes: “While Young is notoriously unpredictable, it’s likely that the shows will be similar in format to his recent Carnegie Hall stand and the Canadian Honor the Treaties concerts that followed. Those eight shows were solo acoustic gigs and focused heavily on Young’s 1960s and 1970s catalog. Big hits like ‘Old Man’ and ‘Heart of Gold’ were mixed in with deeper cuts like ‘A Man Needs a Maid’ and ‘Flying on the Ground Is Wrong.'”
