Neil Young recorded this gloom-and-doom masterpiece in late 1972, in the midst of a serious illness. In addition to overcoming personal challenges of all kinds, he also had to overcome the problem of performing live. This is one of the most respectable of all Neil Young 'live' recordings, although it may as well be a studio album, because it contains all-new material, unavailable anywhere else. Track listing: Time fades away - Journey through the past - Yonder stands the sinner - LA - Love in mind - Don't be denied (our favorite Neil Young ballad) - The Bridge - Last Dance.

 

THE WHITE LABEL PROMO, RADIO STATION-, AUDITION OR DEMONSTRATION COPIES AND RELEASES (such as the one we have here) were often distributed to the radio stations before the record was released to the public, sometimes as much as four months ahead. These records are generally considered to be the "first among equals": the VERY FIRST generation and the VERY FIRST pressings of the particular title; a PROTOTYPE and the earliest known official pressing of the record.

·                               CONDITION:

 

·                               RECORD

 

(IMPORTANT NOTE: unless otherwise noted, ALL records are graded visually, and NOT play-graded!; we  grade records under the strong, diffuse room light or discrete sunlight)

 

(a)          WE GRADE THE VINYL AS EXCELLENT. This is one of those albums that are somewhat difficult to grade. It is somewhere between VG++ and NEAR MINT, just a notch below NEAR MINT. A few light abrasions ARE visible, but they are extremely shallow, superficial  and only moderately visually distracting (nothing significant).For the most part, the vinyl looks impeccable without any MAJOR visual flaws or imperfections. Much of the original luster is intact, and the vinyl shines and sparkles almost like new (NOTE: minor dent/uneven spot noted in the vinyl, not very visible and definitely NOT expected to be audible or affect playback)

 

(b)          The album comes with the original insert/lyrics sheet still intact.

 

(c)           The record is pressed on a RELATIVELY  thick, inflexible vinyl. This is NOT a thin, flimsy ('dynaflex' type),  vinyl, but not the thickest, most rigid vinyl, either.

 

(d)          White Promo Label version of this title is much rarer that a regular, commercially released, version of this title. We estimate that stock copies of this album outnumber promo copies by a ratio of at least 100:1.

 

(e)           Of course, this is a full-bodied ANALOG recording, and not an inferior, digital recording!!!
