A BEAUTIFUL, ORIGINAL 1992 PRESSING OF A TREMENDOUS LP

The year of the 20th anniversary of the release of his most popular album, Harvest, Neil Young released a new album that harked back to that recording, employing many of the same musicians, again dubbed the Stray Gators, as well as arranger Jack Nitzsche and background singers Linda Ronstadt and James Taylor. He also used a similar folk-country acoustic style and sang songs that often had a personal, confessional tone. But the similarities were more of form than of content because, while Harvest was the statement of a confused, if earnest, 26 year old, Harvest Moon embodied the ruminations of a somewhat regretful 46 year old. Indeed, the greatest comparison to be made between the two records was that Young tried to use the passage of time as a confirmation of continuity. In the first several songs, he seemed to be trying to reconcile with his wife and revive their love, though he was uncertain that was possible. In "One of These Days," he regretted the loss of friendships over the years. "War of Man" and the long and ponderous "Natural Beauty" concerned environmental preservation, and even the rollicking banjo tune "Old King" was a lament for the death of a faithful dog. "I never tried to burn any bridges," sang an artist whose contradictory instincts to move on and to return found him, by the time of his 27th solo album, trying to get back to the feel of his fourth. If the attempt was not completely successful, nevertheless it was well and honestly made, and Young wasn't alone in his desire. As Hollywood has long since learned, sequels have a built-in audience, and Harvest Moon became Young's best-selling album in 13 years.

Track Listing:
Side 1: UNKNOWN LEGEND / FROM HANK TO HENDRIX / YOU AND ME / HARVEST MOON / WAR OF MAN
Side 2: ONE OF THESE DAYS / SUCH A WOMAN / OLD KING / DREAMIN' MAN / NATURAL BEAUTY

LABELS: The labels are CLEAN, BRIGHT and UNMARKED with barely a spindle trace to be seen. MINT(-)
VINYL Visual: The vinyl retains its DEEP, LIKE-NEW, GLOSSY SHEEN. The surfaces are virtually UNMARKED apart from some light superficial hairlines caused by movement of the LP within its inner but these have no major audio consequence. NEAR MINT
VINYL Audio: SUPERB - BEAUTIFUL, WARM, RICH SOUND. SENSATIONAL DELIVERY THROUGHOUT. There are NO jumps, NO sticks, NO scratches, just some occasional background noise (the LP is cut pretty quiet so I play-graded at a loud volume which emphasized any surface noise) but it plays to high standard with GREAT CLARITY, NO groove-wear and NO distortion (its practically unplayed) and must be very critically graded EXCELLENT for audio but a better copy I do not think you will find - this LP is notoriously poorly pressed. NOT over-graded in ANY way as I use strict RECORD COLLECTOR grading standards (please refer to my feedback and 'about me' page)
SLEEVE: The matte sleeve is in MINT(-) condition. CLEAN, SHARP and FRESH. The original shrink-wrapping has protected the sleeve from any wear
INNER SLEEVE: The photo/lyric inner is NEAR MINT. CLEAN and BRIGHT and UNMARKED with just some light handling creases. SHARP, FRESH edges with NO splits (which is pretty rare for this inner as it is printed on fairly thin, delicate paper). The LP is now housed - and will be posted in - a new inner to prevent any 'knifing' damage to the original during transit
