Zuma

From 1975. Zuma by Neil Young and Crazy Horse. I love his recordings with The Horse. How they can sound rough and unpolished but so melodic.

I failed to fully appreciate the record when it was released as I badly wanted it to sound like Neil's earlier albums, After the Goldrush and Harvest. The years (decades) since have allowed me to hear it differently.

Highlights have always been the songs, Cortez the Killer, Lookin' For a Love and Pardon My Heart. But tonight, Barstool Blues and Don't Cry No Tears are standing out!!!
