Neil Young: Comes A Time - 1978
No fuzzy, electric guitar-driven rock to be found here.
This was a full-on gentle, CSNY-style country/folk album typified by the tender, relaxing strains of Goin' Back and the Pure Prairie League/Flying Burrito Brothers airy groove of Comes A Time. It was very much an album in that typical, laid-back, acoustic and melodious seventies country rock style, albeit a few years after the sub-genre's early seventies peak. It would have sounded great in 1970, wouldn't it?
Look Out For My Love is a good one too as is Peace Of Mind and Human Highway. Only the electrically-enhanced Motorcycle Mama really breaks the peaceful, bucolic mood. Just the one track where Neil rocked out, then.
