Editorial Review:
Amazon.co.uk Review:
After labouring in Buffalo Springfield and Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young, Neil Young finally hit perfect pitch--if his endearing off-centre whine can be called 'perfect'--with his third album. He's equally passionate with trippy riddles (has anybody figured out what 'We've got mother nature on the run' means in the title track?) and pointed protest (after 30 years of rock-radio overplay, 'Southern Man' still rings with truth about redneck racism). His creaky ensemble, including pianist Jack Nitzsche and rotating members of Crazy Horse, transforms ramshackle country and folk songs into soulful hippie hymns. --Steve Knopper

- Rush to buy this album...it's pure gold.This is classic Neil Young, at his finest, with an album full of songs which are well composed and which have meaningful, interesting lyrics delivered with feeling and sincerity.
Most people who get as far as reading this review will know the songs Don't Let It Bring You Down and Only Love Can Break Your Heart, which are the best tracks on this record, but there are none which aren't good.
This is essential listening for any fan of Neil Young and of American folk-pop-rock ... Read More

- One of Rock's Benchmark AlbumsAs any Neil Young fan will tell you, you're somewhat spoilt for choice in picking out his best work but the fact that many of his albums tend to be either predominantly acoustic or electric may help to narrow down the choice - if you have a personal preference. If you're like me though, it doesn't help, especially when it comes to After the Goldrush! I often think of it as an "electric" album, because the wonderful rockers "Southern Man" and "When You Dance (I can really love)" etch themselves so ... Read More

- A great starter album for those that haven't heard anything by the great man yetIf you want to try the music of Neil Young then this is a good one to start with but beware, being a Neil Young fan is addictive and expensive although its also very rewarding. With over 30 solo albums to his name, plus being a part of Crosby, Nash, Stills and Young and Buffalo Springfield too, you've stumbled across one of the most prolific and brilliant singer-songwriters ever to grace our wonderful planet.
Released in 1970, this was Young's third solo album and the most succesful until ... Read More

- Sublime!This album was on constant play throughout an American road-trip of mine in a camper van from festival to festival, state to state, gradually heading westward to California. I was 18 at the time and the year was 1989. The start of the journey began at the Woodstock festival, twenty years on, (opened with a speech from Jimi Hendrix's father and a set by Richie Havens). As a consequence it is drenched in memories.
This album has it all. Steeped in the golden glow of the times, it covers ... Read More

- Mother Nature on the runAfter the Goldrush the song itself. Is a brilliant song, only 3 verses. The third verse is the most important with regard Mother Nature. I would advise people to read Arthur C Clarkes story called Childhoods End. Verse 3 of the Neil Young song puts that story into 5 lines:-
"Well I dreamed I saw the silver spaceships lying In the yellow haze of the sun
There were children Crying and Colours flying All around the Chosen ones
All in a dream all in a dream, the loading had begun
Flying ... Read More
