This new Neil Young record is great...
Cant believe Neil once voted for Reagan...? Cant believe anyone who voted for Reagan could make a record this good...Buy it, download it, give it to your neighbor, beautiful stuff...

4. He is from Canada, but I thought he said he voted for Reagan during an
interview...I could be wrong. Either way, amazing record.

2. It is great!
Classic Neil Young sound, and very timely lyrics.

I sent the link (to listen to the entire album) to everyone I know.

6. I've been listening for a couple hours (again)
It's hard to find a place to stop. Streaming at: http://neilyoung.com/index2.html

Very powerful, compassionate, and hopeful as well as an abslolute rejection of the evil forces that now hold power.

7. Of course he can make a record this good.
I've been listening to his stuff all of my life, and a lot of it has been not good, but great. His Greendale CD a few years back was an obvious commentary about social conservatism.

DUers are always expounding on "single issue voters." I don't believe Neil Young is a single issue or narrow-minded person. I'll suggest to you that Young is as real, whole, and complicated as any other person. Not being a cardboard cutout, he has explored many paths in his lifetime, and sought to resolve his ideas and issues in more than one arena.

Like most real people.

10. he'll be in Winnipeg, his hometown in July
but tickies are outrageously expensive. 175 bucks!
I'd pay to see Bush tomatoed for that, but sorry, Neil, no go. ;(

13. Living With War - pre-order now on iTunes and Amazon- in stores Mon. 5/8
C'mon DUer's! Let take this one to the top of the charts! Once it's released you can post comments on Amazon (which will surely be freeped based on past experience).
It is a great record, and I hope Neil will be appearing on TV to promote it...SNL, Conan, etc.
They've been playing "We Need a Leader" on local (SF bay area) radio all week.
