Product Description

"One of the most ambitious works of his career...a great artist once again at the peak of his game." (Chicago Tribune) "Young has rarely sounded so fresh and inspired...an uncompromising artist with the courage to follow his muse." (Chicago Sun Times) For the first time in his storied career, Neil Young has created a fictional place filled with characters and incidents and written an album about them. The album, and the place, is Greendale and the people are the Green family. The songs are among the most personal he's ever penned, ranging from the dark and biting to the light and humorous. Still surprising and still stirring it up, Young adds a stunning new album to his place in rock history with Greendale.

Amazon.com

Neil Young has long been one of rock's great romantics, mourning the utopian ideals of the "hippie" '60s and his vision of what America wasor at least should have been. In some ways, Greendale--which could be described as a "rock novel"--adds a mourning for humanity itself to the mix, as Young presents his vision of America 2003 via the story of a fictional family in a small California town. There's drama galore--a cop is killed by a drug dealer; Grandpa has a fatal heart attack while pointing a gun at a TV reporter--but most of these songs also work individually as terrific rock tunes. It's a more subdued Crazy Horse this time out, with only Neil on lead guitar and little of the distorted rage found on albums like Ragged Glory. But "Grandpa's Interview" has a gorgeous riff that recalls Zuma's "Don't Cry No Tears"; "Be the Rain" is a genuine Neil Young anthem about love, peace, saving the planet, and doing the right thing. A few pieces sound a tad meandering at first, which could lead one to conclude that Greendale is only a good Neil Young album. Repeated listening, however, should confirm that Greendale is a great Neil Young album. --Bill Holdship

Neil Young's recent twang opera worked OK as a CD. The story comes most sharply into focus on "Greendale" DVD. -- Philadelphia Enquirer

a spirited bit of protest often ably marrying imagery to music. -- ATLANTA JOURNAL CONSTITUTION

an epic drama in this unusual musical film written and directed by the legendary singer/songwriter. -- IFC website

Everything You're Listening For

GREENDALE is the most excited I have been about ANY album in a long time. Neil Young and Crazy Horse know how to rock. We all know that. But on this album, their unique chemistry surpasses anything they've done in the past. Neil's long solos are full of soul and filled with heart. Neil and the band have a spontinaity which allows the music to roam free if it feels like it, completely unconcerned with hurrying back to any vocal section. This allows the music to tell the story as much as the lyrics do, and that's one of the wonderful things about GREENDALE.
These songs have love and tenderness written right into them, and these emotions are very well expressed in the performance of both the vocals and the music. For example, unexpectedly, in the middle and again at the end of the song called, "Grandpa's Interview", some harmony vocals unexpectedly join the melody of the ongoing melodic guitar riff, and a few times in a row offer this touching proverb: "Share your lovin' and you'll live so long." which is sung beautifully. And there's a touch of sadness in it because we find in that same song, that such, unfortnately, is not always true.
There is so much to love about the writing, about everyones' musicianship, about Neil's vocals, the great background singers, and about the whole concept of a "musical novel", but now in this 2nd edition... to actually see the album being recorded on the bonus dvd, and to see how well it was blended the initial filming is with the the filming of the overdubs, and with the GREEDALE movie, well... don't be afraid to say it, people. GREENDALE is a masterpiece. The vision and foresight Neil Young had for this project, from the studio to the film to the stage and seeing how he has pulled it all off and made a thorough record of it all is mind blowing!
Neil Young, I think you outdid yourself with this project. GREENDALE brings me joy every time I hear it, as much joy as when I first saw you in concert with CS&N promoting "Ohio" just before it was released. I knew then, and I know now that "that guy singin' this song" writes songs (and now a musical novel) that have a conscience, and that "he" knows how to deliver these meaningful songs as well. And for me, GREENDALE is one heck of a special delivery! Love you, Neil. EVERYONE BUY THIS CD, and pay no attention to the hockey pucks out there who are too musically immature, and who are too fearful of something new to recognize the greatness of this wonderful work, and who apparently can't figure out that buying the 2nd edition of the same cd which comes with a different FREE DVD, is less expensive than buying a new DVD sold seperately! Duh! Every REAL Neil fan has worn out the first CD anyway! Here's hoping Neil Young & Crazy Horse play Philly again if there's a late Spring-Early Summer 2004 leg of the Greendale Tour added! Until then, BUY THIS CD!

Neil appropriates unclaimed tunes lurking in the ether

Reviewed in the United States on August 21, 2003

Verified Purchase

I first heard these songs a month or two ago when the Dublin concert appeared on Neil's website. Since then I've heard them in various forms on his web site, and live at the Concord, CA concert. Having had a chance to live with them for awhile, I'm still a bit unclear on exactly how Neil manages to come up with so many catchy hooks that reel the listener in and leaving him gasping for more. I probably heard them in concert at just the ideal time, when I was getting to know them, and had not yet had a chance to get too much of them. So its difficult to be objective. The concert was just too much fun.
The album is here now, and I have to come back to earth, and decide if the songs are really as strong as a good north western, or if I was just carried away by the warm summer air pulsing with Ralph Molina's uncharacteristically steady rhythm. Overall, I would have to say that yes, they do stand up. There is, of course, a certain mood that permeates all the songs, they definitely appear to be blown into town by the same storm, but I don't think they sound too much alike.
One of the strange things about the album is its clarity. I love listening to Sampredo, but I think having him sit this one out allowed Crazy Horse working as a trio to create an unusually unmuddied sound. Its a bit like the kind of clarity on Landing on Water, but without the bad vibes.
Melodically, Neil seems to be working hard at his minimalist approach to composition. Nothing seems very complicated here. It sounds like Neil turned his sails to the wind and let the mood carry him directly home to a safe harbor. The opposite of the belabored sense one gets from a good Joni Mitchell or Steely Dan composition. These melodies seem not so much composed as simply captured. The end effect is very satisfying.
Here the strongest songs are probably the rockers, with "double-e", "devil's sidewalk", "sun grean" and "be the rain" standing out. "Carmichael" probably deserves special notice for its strong emotional pull. Overall, what we have here is Neil in troubadour mode, singing the songs of the time, capturing the best spirit of an age. We're in a dark era when the country in general and the music business in particular seems to be caught in a sluggish and murky nightmare. So its good to hear one nationally known voice coming out with something new and interesting. I would suggest that other artists listen to hear what Neil is doing right, but I'm afraid the key ingredient here is probably raw talent that has somehow remained uncorrupted. Maybe we could all work on the uncorrupted part.

I have been an ardent fan of Neil my entire life. He has always been the "funky one" of the CSN group and always appealed to me more than the others of that group....read between the lines.
I honestly can say that I have every recording that Neil has ever done. 95% of them I love, some I kind of push aside. I'm still waiting for a similar album to "Harvest Moon", which I think was the best album he ever did. I just know it will come eventually!!
Anyway, this recording was a surprise for me. I wasn't really sure what I was going to get, but the moment I listened to it, it brought me back to the feelings that I got from some of Neil's earlier works.
The thing that drove it all home for me was the bonus DVD of him, in Ireland of all places, doing a complete accoustic set of the entire album. Although I loved the footage, I think it would have been better to be somewhere domestic...he is so political--so be on home turf, Neil. California would have been the spot, since it is where the "story" takes place.
Regardless, I was hooked, it was fantastic. I didn't know I was getting the DVD and tried to plug it into my car stereo where it was promptly rejected. Ok, I thought, go to the DVD player. Wow! I LOVED his communications, humor, lyrics and music. When I listened to the CD after that, I was able to envision the entire wonderful story...like a great book.
Although I don't think this is one of his most profound ventures, I do love the album and play it all the time. It is definitely worth it if you love Neil. As always, he is ever-evolving. I'm a faithful and loyal listener and will always be grateful for whatever he conjures up!

Greendale - a preview rather than a review!

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on July 22, 2003

Verified Purchase

Greendale must be the most eagerly awaited Neil Young album in years following his recent world solo and acoustic tour, when he aired the album in its entirety. This experience left his fanbase either bemused, disappointed, intrigued, deflated, underwhelmed, exhilarated, or a little bit of all those feelings. We had been expecting a momentous album following 10 patchy years of output and it was typical of the old buzzard to plough his own furrow, and deliver a set of acerbic yet melodious cinematic vignettes, bookended by long intersong narratives, rather than gift wrap a neat little Harvest type collection. The album will be with us shortly, backed by Crazy Horse. How can I give 5 stars to an album I have only heard in a mutated form? Well, how about one star for the quality of the songs heard in their basic concert form - memorable and melodic, even after one listen. Another star for his bravado - a long time since we had a concept album, maan. Throw in another star for the concept and the characters - Grandpa, Sun, Jed, the Devil. Will we find out what happens to Jed? A fourth star for intrigue - how will the songs sound fleshed out with Crazy Horse's backing, will we have the same narrative on the record - is there a DVD to follow? The fifth star is rewarded for the simple reason that we have a new Young album to look forward to, put in the system, play a few times, and see what gets under our skin, at the very least acouple of gorgeous melodies and THAT guitar playing. I for one, can't wait!

Ich kann mich nicht mit allen Scheiben des Neil Young anfreunden. Aber Greendale ist für mich eine besondere Scheibe, weil Sie seinen Musikstil auf das Wesentliche seinen Stils reduziert. DAS ist Neil Young und mehr brauchts nicht. Für mich nicht nur Neil Youngs beste Scheibe sondern eine der besten Scheiben überhaupt. Ein Meilenstein der Rockmusik.

Triple A rating for the story of the Double E

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on April 7, 2016

Verified Purchase

Firstly a slow burner but its musical delights and the story really surface after 2 or 3 listens. Story is based on small rural town life shaken up by a local cop's murder by a local boy. Make sure you read all the notes in the CD booklet - it really helps understand the story.
Musically not too diverse but gripping nonetheless and I really love the little stories (e,g the locals outrage at the Double L ranch being re-named the Double E by two strokes of paint !!).
Another masterpiece by the master.
