Horse Crazy

Gone Dead Train: The Best Of 1971-1989 Review by Mark Deming: While Crazy Horse have often been praised as one of America's great rock & roll bands, that's usually when they've been working in collaboration with fan, friend, and frequent patron Neil Young. On their own, Crazy Horse have recorded a handful of worthwhile albums, but they've never connected with audiences the same way they have when working with Young. Of course, it doesn't help that the band has never had a consistent frontman, guitarist, or songwriter of their own, with bassist Billy Talbot and drummer Ralph Molina the only musicians to play on every Crazy Horse album. (Original guitarist Danny Whitten died of a drug overdose in 1972, while Frank "Poncho" Sampedro has often drifted out of the group, usually to work with Young.)

Secondo LP dei Crazy Horse dopo il gigantesco "Everybody Knows This Is Nowhere" (Reprise, 1969) - il primo di Neil Young & Crazy Horse - e l'eponimo "Crazy Horse" (Reprise, 1971), primo disco tout-court del leggendario roster californiano. "Loose" esce per la Reprise nel gennaio del 1972 con la co-produzione di Fred Catero e con un cambio di line-up rispetto ai lavori precedenti. In particolare già rispetto a "Crazy Horse".

Live Rust is a live album by Neil Young and Crazy Horse, recorded during their fall 1978 Rust Never Sleeps tour.

SHORTLY AFTER THE dissolution of Buffalo Springfield in 1968, Neil Young teamed up with the core members of struggling L.A. rock band the Rockets, renamed them Crazy Horse, and spent the next five decades working alongside them. Their first record was 1969’s Everybody Knows This Is Nowhere, featuring classics like “Down By The River” and “Cowgirl In The Sand.”

Crazy Horse is best known as Neil Young's backup group for the the past 30 years. Originally hitting the Billboard charts in 1972 on Reprise Records, the vinyl album, "Loose", has been a long sought after collector's item.

Early Daze is a collection of rare and unreleased studio recordings by Neil Young with Crazy Horse. The 10 songs were all recorded in 1969 with a Crazy Horse line-up of Danny Whitten (guitar and vocals), Ralph Molina (drums and vocals), Billy Talbot (bass and vocals), Jack Nitzsche (keyboards, tambourine, and vocals). Only one track on the album has been previously released ("Dance Dance Dance").

Americana is the 31st studio album by Canadian / American musician Neil Young, released on June 5, 2012.
