20th studio album release by Neil Young (excluding live albums, soundtracks, and compilations, and therefore maybe actually his 30th album release), and it's a long look back and a return to the past. It's like a sequel to Harvest both as the title suggests and in style, but also in personnel, as most of the musicians on his 1972 album (exclusive Crosby, Stills & Nash) appear on this. The title track is a born Neil Young classic and the album gained much recognition for it's natural continuation of the fine acoustic albums Harvest, and Comes a Time.
