Just have to pipe in here, Harvest is the most difficult album for me to pick just one song from...if you only knew the impact this album, 'specially HOG, had on my life, seems like that's when it all started to happen...that Neil deal...early spring of '72, 8th grade, riding the bus home with that harmonica and D-28 playin over the AM radio, that cute neighbor girl who never seemed to notice (found out later she did, really,) skidding on the frozen grass with leather soled shoes, waiting for the next fad, from yo-yo's to bell bottoms, dawn of something beautiful...

AYP received 4 1/2 stars from Ft.Worth Star
--- In rust@y..., "Troy Shaffer" <shaffer_troy@h...> wrote: ....the "Friday" guide of the Ft. Worth Star Telegram gave AYP four and one-half stars saying Neil "steps out of character with a romantic album."
Well, AYP? deserves very high ratings. That's for sure! I've been playing it constantly and never get tired of it. Things are busy here around the Old Homestead (eg. I've switched to fast-speed cable for my internet service and I'm working up a new email account with Shaw Cable. I'm hoping that Gus or his son will visit and help me with the finishing touches. My new email addy will be <twobase@...>. Actually, it already is, it's just that I haven't figured out how to get into the email site yet ;>) Good old <twobase@netidea> will soon be history but I'll keep <spookedhorse@rocketmail> as a backup. Yep, I've been listenin' to Neil (mostly AYP?) and Emmylou Harris almost exclusively and sometimes I think it's the only thing that's keeping me half-sane. They started letting the hockey rink melt today, as our Smokeaters got eliminated from the playoffs. It's so great to read about y'all making plans for the rustfests and all. Tx fRed Sun

Big A$$ Billboards - how much?
I pass by one of those CSNY Tour of America signs coming down the Tom Landry (respectful pause) highway between Big D and FW on my way home. It's been up a while now but I just noticed today that Clear Channel owns the sign. I wonder how much the promotion company pays the sign company.
Also pass big a$$ billboards for the Tribute to Heros CD and for Stevie Ray Vaughn memorial show. It's a scenic drive.

Milwaukee grovel and Top 5...
Rusties!
I'm sure there are copies of the Milwaukee CSNY2K2 show floating around in Rustland somewhere...I'd love to get my hands on one. :O)
The thought of picking 12 top Neil songs out his *vast* repetoire seems utterly impossible to me. Kudos to those who accomplished this feat! I will attempt the Top 5 Albums poll, however... It's relatively boring and predictable. ;O)
(This is in no particular order.)
On the Beach Ragged Glory (best driving album ever???) Zuma Tonight's the Night EKTIN...no, YOTH. Okay, EKTIN.
But YOTH is an honorable mention just because it has a great version of "Slip Away" on it, which may just be my favorite Neil song ever...
I also will join with the others who defended Broken Arrow. I quite enjoy this album...although I can't say I'm fond of *this* version of SA.

Hi the best of the bestest, IMHO, is the "River of Pride" 2CD set [ the Joel bernstein tape]
though the tracks are written correctly on the back sleeve, the names of the 25 songs written on the CDs are as follows:
Company Old taste Human being tell me again afternoon my heart Mr Browne here we go though the past heart of the sun need a maid white river give me a chance to die on my mind it's too late the needle poison another country goodBye love is power mountainside
BONUS Tracks. the fall union rocker war dance
[ do i get a medal for writing these out ] it states....... "not for sale, promotional only", but that's just the bootleggers trying to make it sound "semi official" it took me 4 years to find this copy and cost me ?25//$35 to buy. and i'm quite proud of owning it. these days of course, we all make free cdr copies and shoot the bootleggers ;-)
rocking on though the weekend Johnnyrideon

I tell ya, these polls are interesting in that you go to the site, look at those songs, and the beauty of each and every one of them jumps right out at you. I have a very hard time putting into words how beautiful these songs are to me. "Old Man" comes from way up there, and Neil brought it to us. You just cannot get any better than that song. I'm not at all trying to sway votes.....this album is loaded with some of the best examples that we humans have of music.....great album!
Take care, Charlie

Richard Thompson Grovel & Offer (NNC)
I received a copy of Richard Thompson's fantastic show at the Getty Museum in LA from 10/01. It's RT covering 1000 years of popular music, from Olde English ballads, through to Prince and beyond. A great show. I am looking for RT shows from 2002. If you have any, and are interested in trading, please contact me.
Thanks, Terry G.

Just tried today to order the thing through a local record store. They said they might not be able to get a hold of it because it would have to come from Germany. I've heard people talk about odering on list from somewhere. Can any one send me a list of place to order from?
Thanks in Advance,
If I would have known they couldn't get a hold of it locally "Then I would have done some things differently."

"dropping in on you my friend, is just like old times, said the fool who signed the paper, to assorted slimes."
----- neil usedta tell me lots of things in dreams that i didn't understand. sometimes he'd talk about were the "bad people out there." <<i know, it sounds like he was talkin to a kid, well, what can i say>>> he never told me who they were... even tho i'd always ask him, "what bad people are you talkin about???" i think the "assorted slimes" might be the "bad people".

Re: If it wasn't for bad luck.............
Driving to work today and happened to have the radio on to the local classic dreck station when the dj's announced they were giving away 1st row tickets to Tuesday's CSNY show to the 25th caller if they could name the song they were about to play.
