 Neil Young - Neil Young - Original 1968 Version

UK 1st Press on Steamboat Label!!!

Neil Young is the self-titled debut studio album by Canadian musician Neil Young, which was his debut release as a solo artist following his departure from the band Buffalo Springfield.

Many sources cite that Neil Young was released in January 1969; however, the album was originally released on November 12, 1968 (Young's 23rd birthday). The first release of the album used the Haeco-CSG encoding system. This technology was intended to make stereo records compatible with mono record players, but had the unfortunate side effect of degrading the sound in both stereo and mono.

Young was unhappy with the sound quality of the first release, so the album was partially remixed in January 1969 and then re-released without Haeco-CSG processing. The "Neil Young" header was added to the album cover; previously the cover art had consisted of only the portrait.

Copies of the original 1968 version are now rare and highly sought-after, because legions of Neil Young fans believe that the 1969 mix destroyed much of the beauty of the songs, especially "Here We Are in the Years."

Cleaning / Postage & Packaging

Every record we send out is fully cleaned, first using a carbon brush to remove any dust, then with a VPI HW 16.5 record cleaner using a four-step process consisting of an active enzyme cleaner, premixed vinyl cleaner, ultra-pure water rinse solution and finishing with a high resolution rinse - each step has its own dedicated brush. This process gets down deeper into the grooves and removes any contaminants. The improvement in the sound is startling. It is then placed in a brand new liner (original liner is always included if present) and then packaged in a record mailer (with stiffeners) with the vinyl placed in a separate sleeve. We aim to despatch within 2-3 working days.
