Acoustic guitars and desert dust

"Harvest Moon" is a beautiful drive that Neil Young albums rather stands in on the quiet side. This time no distorted guitars, but Western guitars, banjos and drums, as they can not be played permeable. If you listen to this record, as played out in the mind a movie in yellow ocher, where Neil and his musical collaborators - who are just as casually dressed carelessly as he - at sunset (or "Moonlight") in a Atmoshäre of desert dust and porch romance on their old instruments strum.
"It all sounds the same, it's all one song" (NY) A little true that even with this album, but also Harvest Moon has its charming subtleties that distinguish the plate from other versions. What stays the same are simple and yet so incredibly perfect guitar runs that make songs like Unknown Legend so incomparable. In addition next to the all round hand-made sound Neils distinctive voice - sometimes laid-back, sometimes almost penentrierend - the album the NY-stamp on. The best way to describe the entire disk is probably the title of Track 10: "Natural Beauty" - anything left to say? My ratings so: strong buy !!!
