My favourite Neil Young record. It’s a lovely mix of Young playing with a full band but still having the sparseness to his sound that he doesn’t have on his stuff with Crazy Horse. The trilogy of ‘[ ] Blues’ songs on this album alone are a great representation of Neil Young’s strengths, but then you’ve also got beautiful heartfelt songs like Motion Pictures. I think Neil Young is one of those artists that you’ll love the first couple you hear, and so On The Beach is firmly cemented as an album I love.
