If you've seen volume 1 [1966-75] you'll know it's not that strong, but this, strangely, is a much better film. It has a lot more footage than the first programme, and while it covers the rather disappointing 1980s albums [although, it doesn't - wisely - even mention landing on water],the whole feel of the dvd is much better. It's particularly good on the Freedom - Ragged Glory - Mirror Ball - Unplugged - Harvest Moon era, and some nice creative editing makes for an enjoyable DVD this time 'round.

Much of Neil Young's work in this time period was not what people wanted to hear from Neil, so they slammed him. Geffen Records even sued him for not producing "commercial music" that was a lawsuit Neil was proud of. As a Neil Young fan, maybe it is because my first concert was his "Trans" tour and that's the neil I got to know. Therefore, all his other experiments did not phase me- I changed with him. During this time period he also produced some amazing music that his audience and critics loved. Neil has always been known for doing the unexpected. A new Neil Young record or a Neil Young Concert, you never know what you are going to get. I did not get as angry at this review program as I did at the first version.

Good in places, overlooked some of his best stuff i think, 80min is not enough time to cover
such an amazing and diverse career.

Misleading advertising. This is an unauthorised review of Neil Youngs work and is a complete waste of money.

This is a beautifuuly crafted DVD. After viewing it and appreciating the oh so insightfull comments of these laureate critics, place the DVD on your favorite altar or perhaps in your fireplace. Open up your favorite beverage and put on Tonight's the Night, or perhaps Rageed Glory. Douse the DVD with lighter fluid, light, and enjoy. It's beautiful.

The way Neil is going, these yo-yos will have to create a third "Review" in a few years.

this dvd is mostly people talking about neil's career and not much music...disappointing...i wanted live music not a bunch of idiot's reviewing his career........
