Bluenote Cafe

Neil Young Bluenote Cafe on Numbered Limited Edition Vinyl 4LP Box Set

23-Track Live Collection Documents Neil Young's 1987-1988 Tour With the Bluenotes: Bluenote Cafe Includes Seven Unreleased Tracks and Searing 19-Minute-Plus Version of "Tonight's the Night"

Neil Young recorded only one studio album with his Bluenotes backing band, but he made the tour count. Documented on this 2015 release in his Performance Series, highlights from the 1987-1988 jaunt fill this riveting, downright funky, and groove-laden box set. Supported by a large ensemble that includes members of Crazy Horse and a six-piece horn section, Young goes to town on 23 songs--including seven unreleased tracks and a 19-minute-plus version of "Tonight's the Night." This note's for you!

"Filled with pleasant surprises and hidden gems, Bluenote Cafe serves as a second chance to hear what many missed the first time while, in the process, righting historical wrongs."
