Released as Neil Young & Crazy Horse this is another live album, and originally a double vinyl issue. Compared to Rust Never Sleeps this is the music of his great career, both as soloist and with Crazy Horse, and in that respect it is a 'must-have'. The album starts out with a track he wrote in the late 1960s before going solo, followed by a song for Buffalo Springfield, "I Am a Child", also a track from the '60s, and in that way the album continues on a journey up until his most recent songs. In one way it resembles Rust Never Sleeps, and that's how the album is split up in an acoustic start and an electrified ending, only here it's only the first 5 songs, side A on vinyl, that are (slow) acoustic and the rest, which is 11 tracks that make up side B, C, and D on the double lp version, are electrified folk rock compositions.
