Neil Young Highlights Psychedelic Side on 50th Album
The 80-year-old songwriter’s 50th studio album features five slow, shapeless meditations, two newly interpreted early songs, and tracks that use the melody of “This Land Is Your Land.”
Neil Young, who is described as an 80-year-old songwriter, is highlighting this feature on his 50th studio album for the first time since the 2012 release Psychedelic Pill. When he entered the studio earlier this year, Young was not confident about his new material.
These five tracks are described as slow, formless meditations, with some lasting around 10 minutes long. The tracks Casting Me Away From You and I’ll Love You Forever serve to lighten side B of the album with Beatles-style love songs.
In other details regarding the material, two tracks on the album Talkin to the Trees used the melody of This Land Is Your Land. Furthermore, Chrome Hearts appeared to be hearing the songs for the very first time when Neil started counting them out during the Talkin to the Trees period.
