He sounds like he’s in pain and honestly I’m in pain too
Not a fan of Neil Young, avoid his music at all cost. I listened to this against my will but I did like two of the songs, Love to Burn and Over and Over. I have concluded that if anyone else sang his songs, I’d probably be a fan, just can’t get over his voice.
TOOOOO Monotonous! Stupid lyric's! Suitable for addicts!
Did not like this album at all. I like some Neil Young, but not this. The rhymey-rhyming was really, really, really bothering me. His voice felt off, just such a bummer of an album.
Maybe there was a good album here with a different singer, but I cannot stand Neil's voice. It is terrible, especially with this fake-grunge sound that he was going for. I almost turned it off. The music was uninspired and not noteworthy. 1/5.
This is a chore to listen to, with its extremely boring musicality, Neil's less than enjoyable singing, and just the utter "whatever"-ness of it all. I was coasting through most of this album thinking it could scrape by with a two star, but the second (!) ten minute song on the album really broke me, with just a complete lack of joy coming from within. This is music made to appeal to the most trivial of stereotypes from the era, and the fact that this has been lumped in with grunge for years now is a sin. This is dad rock, through and through, and while I absolutely love Young's On the Beach, this is nothing similar to that at all, and is much worse off for it. Maybe its Crazy Horse's fault? I'll have to keep that in mind when listening to his other albums.
Not on Spotify due to politics. Checked it out on YouTube and he can't sing, you're not missing much.
Can't listen to this album on Spotify. 0/5
This was not my favorite album of his.
Not on Spotify
F*ck Neal Young. Will not listen to his crap
Monoton rock som er fullstendig uinteressant for min del.
Oh my god. I knew I wasn't going to like this very much due to the length and the year, but I did not expect it to be this bad. His singing is awful. I usually don't mind his voice, but it sounds so bad here. These songs are super long for no reason. It's just 10 minutes of the same thing over and over. There's no reason for the songs to be so long. It's aggravating. I don't really understand why this is on here. Some of the songs really pissed me off. My favourite song would be White Line I guess because it's the shortest song.
First song was good. Absolutely awful vocals in the middle part of the album. Guitar was cool though
Really not my cup of tea at all.
Fuck neil young taking his shit off spotify. I’ll never forgive him for this. ez 1 star. fuck u neil
Fanns inte på Spotify
Unable to listen due to Mr Young's stance with Spotify
Awful singing over good guitar playing. I didn't make it through the second song.
Not available on Spotify
Жизнь слишком коротка, чтобы слушать такие альбомы Ноль голоса, музыка обнять и плакать, какойто блять фестиваль окна открой, утренний блок Кошмар просто Реально американский говнорок Может роудтрип по америке с американцами на заднем фоне и сгодился бы
God Country Home is awful. His voice is terrible. Out of tune. Whiny. Skip. I've made it as far as "over and over" (track 4) and I'm going to have to abandon this. The instrumentals are OK-ish, nothing to write home about, but his voice is absolutely fucking awful. He can't hold a tune any more than I could hold the plums of an enraged bull elephant. This is dismal. People actually like this crap?
Love Neil Young, but I don't love his grunge phase. DNF
The man can't sing, but some of the guitar licks are ok.
Oof.
shit
This fucker wants his music off Spotify and now I have to jump through hoops to try and find his old ass album? No thanks. Just like people who complain about piracy, if you make it difficult for people to find your content, they either won't or they will pirate. I can't even be bothered to pirate this guy. I don't pay for all these music services so you get a 1-star for being a tool.
Couldn't finish it. Never really enjoyed his voice, but this album seems worse than the others. Tracks too long
Neil, from a fellow Canadian…sorry eh, but yeah, no. I almost didn’t make it through this whole album.
Meh
Not on Spotify anymore cos he had a fit about Joe Rogan talking about Covid. Seems like a tear, didn’t listen to it, 1 star, would not return
Could not listen, not on any platform
Snowflake
could not access this album
unable to listen on spotify
Awful
I'm just not enjoying this very much. I like a few Neil Young songs so I was thinking I'd be a fan, but no. Unbelievably boring
twas ok 1.5 stars
1 Is this a joke? This sounds like a joke. It sounds like he’s making fun of himself. Also I can’t tell what it wants to be. Is it country? Is it rock? Folk? Some songs even gave me hair/glam metal vibes. The whole thing overstated its welcome from the start and lasted through to the end. Seeing that it came out in 1990 it’s clear that Neil Young was begging to stay relevant but I have to imagine this is what the death rattle of the 80’s sounds like. Favorites include: Mansion on the Hill I guess
Honestly can't stand Neil Young's voice.
Sounds like a cover band? Mom pick em up i hate it here
Country punk this shit ass
I'm glad that I already liked Neil before I heard this. I like that he is willing to experiment with his sound, but that doesn't mean that I am willing to automatically buy into his b.s. like to wonks at RS are prone to do.
Unable to listen to as Neil Young has removed all albums from Spotify!
Didn’t like this one
Neil has some great songs. Unfortunately none were on this album. “Old Man, ❤️ Of Gold, Harvest “come to mind and they would score way higher than this 💿. This album did not show his true talent.
Dull. 2* - 1* for several 10 minute long repetitive songs.
Immediately no.
Neil Young, you are the force that has ruined country music. I cannot stand this. I do not care. I will not listen to these again.
I absolutely hated this album. I was having a bad time on a rail replacement but atm which perhaps as added to this but whatever what fucking irritating music. Each song was wayy too long as well. Eugg
glorified country album. white line is the only song i enjoyed, most songs are far too long.
First 1 I’m handing out. Neill Youngs vocal inflections are not good and it seems like he’s always just a few Hz off his intended note. The instrumentals are fine but bland in my opinion. The combined package is just straight unappealing with mediocre songwriting, bad vocal performance and boring instrumentals.
Really bad country rock.
Day 145: Neil Young & Crazy Horse - Ragged Glory (1990) It's with dread that I put on this album. I debated with myself whether to review it at all, given how little I appreciate Neil Young's aesthetic, apart from his brief country period. Two minutes into the opener, Country Home, I am already regretting my choice. Young's guitar is as maladroit as ever and his voice has coarsened appreciably with age, losing any charm it might have had for me. Okay. I can see this is a lost cause. Because I can't bear to sit through this album, it wouldn't be fair to rate it.
just no.
whyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy
Über dieses Album kann ich einfach nur abkotzen. Ich habe beim hören versucht, herauszufinden, was ausgerechnet diese Platte so interessant macht, in diese Liste aufgenommen zu werden. Neil Youngs Gesang und die überflüssigen Dur-'Soli' über überflüssige Dur – Akkordfolgen (und er mag seine Dur-Akkordfolgen ganz offenbar) sind nicht einfach nur verzichtbar, sondern schlicht scheiße. Dieses Album klingt dort besser, wo Young nicht singt, und auch da klingt es nicht gut. Ich musste bei den „Kompositionen“ stellenweise an Kinderlieder zum Lernen des ABC oder der Zahlen von 1-10 denken. Neil Young ist krass überschätzt.
