Neil Young's Essential "On the Beach" 50th Anniversary Reissue Coming November 8th

no mastering, source or pressing credits in the press release, will update ASAP

Released in 1974, 50 years ago, Neil's 5th studio album, and the one following Harvest is among his most revered and musically enduring albums. Musicians on the album included Crazy Horse's rhythm section Billy Talbot (bass) and Ralph Molina (drums), along with other key players Ben Keith, Tim Drummond, Levon Helm, Rick Danko, Rusty Kershaw, David Crosby, Graham Nash and George Whitsell (The Rockets).

Sessions were held at Young’s Broken Arrow Ranch in Northern California and Sunset Sound in Hollywood. Young was branching out musically, and heading in new directions. The classic "See the Sky About to Rain" and "Ambulance Blues" are but two of the set's great songs.

The press release contained no mastering or pressing information. Once that requested info arrives this post will be updated. The record will be available at music retailers everywhere. All Greedy Hand Store purchases come with free hi-res digital audio downloads from the Xstream Store © at NYA.

    Can't wait for this, nonetheless. His recent remasters have been nothing but master tape-like.

    I just hope there is going to be more music included, for a 2 or 3 LP release. Archived material, etc.
