Prairie Wind

format: digital
[album rate: 3 / 5] [3,06]
producer: Neil Young, Ben Keith
label: Reprise Records - nationality: Canada

Key track: 5. "It's a Dream" (4 / 5)

27th studio album by Neil Young is a return to "comfort zone". He continues his acoustic singer / songwriter and folk tradition , which was initiated with Harvest and had Silver & Gold as his last. The album was met with positive reviews and was awarded to Grammy awards. I don't find it as interesting as Comes a Time or Harvest Moon but see it close to match Silver & Gold. Not great, nor bad, just middle of the road, quite alright.
