Album Number Two Hundred Seventy Nine. “Crazy Horse” is their eponymous debut album, released in 1971 by #repriserecords , It is the only album by the band to feature #dannywhitten recorded without #neilyoung and it peaked at #84 on the Billboard 200 album chart. My copy (copies) are the Reprise Records release from 1971 - RS 6438, and a 1986 rerelease on Edsel Records, a division of Demon Records, Ltd - ED175. Members of this band had already released an album in 1968 as The Rockets and had appeared on record twice with Neil Young as #crazyhorse . The core trio from the Rockets, Danny Whitten, #billytalbot , and #ralphmolina , provided instrumental backing for Young's 1969 album #everybodyknowsthisisnowhere and performed on some songs from Young's 1970 album #afterthegoldrush . Producer/keyboardist #jacknitzsche , who had been a member of Phil Spector's Wrecking Crew and played on records by The Rolling Stones, had worked with Young on his debut solo album and on tracks for #buffalospringfield . He was drafted into Crazy Horse to back up Young on their short tour in early 1970. During sessions for Gold Rush, they met teenage multi-instrumentalist #nilslofgren , who joined the band in time for this album. The band got a contract with Reprise Records after the exposure garnered from their association with Young. #rockandroll #seventiesrock #theseventies https://www.instagram.com/p/CaBGl1orffQ/?utm_medium=tumblr

“Harvest” is the fourth studio album by Neil Young, released in February 1972. It featured the London Symphony Orchestra on two tracks and vocals by noted guests David Crosby, Graham Nash, Linda Ronstadt, Stephen Stills, and James Taylor. It topped the Billboard 200 album chart for two weeks, and spawned two hit singles, "Old Man", which peaked at No. 31 on the Billboard Hot 100, and "Heart of Gold", which reached No. 1. It was the best-selling album of 1972 in the United States. This is a gatefold “yellow” vinyl issue, REP 44 131, of the original #repriserecords MS 2032, made in Germany by WEA Musik GmbH. After the members of #csny went their separate ways in 1970, Young recruited a group of country session musicians (which he christened #thestraygators and recorded a country rock record, Harvest. It contained a US number one single in "Heart of Gold". Other songs returned to some usual Young themes: "The Needle and the Damage Done" was a lament for great artists who had been addicted to heroin, including Crazy Horse bandmate #dannywhitten ; "Alabama" was "an unblushing rehash of 'Southern Man'"; to which southern rock band #lynyrdskynyrd wrote their 1973 hit "#sweethomealabama " in reply, stating "I hope Neil Young will remember, a Southern Man don't need him around, anyhow". Young later wrote of "Alabama" in his autobiography Waging Heavy Peace, saying it "richly deserved the shot Lynyrd Skynyrd gave me with their great record. I don't like my words when I listen to it. They are accusatory and condescending, not fully thought out, and too easy to misconstrue." #rockandroll #neilyoung #nya #theseventies https://www.instagram.com/p/CMpdO0ir4ep/?igshid=apdyyk0iigfi
