Editorial Review: Amazon.com essential recording: Proclaiming his intentions with "Are You Ready for the Country?" Young detoured briefly to the Nashville mainstream. On this No. 1 1972 album, even the singer's acquired-taste voice comes across smooth and beautiful--the smash "Heart of Gold," with steel guitars and Linda Ronstadt's backup vocals, is by far Young's most commercial-sounding song. His usual dissonant touches, like the otherworldly guitar in "Out on the Weekend," are less spooky in this new context. The last two tracks, the deceptively gentle "The Needle and the Damage Done" and the hypnotic rocker "Words (Between the Lines of Age)," predict "Tonight's the Night," Young's haunted 1975 classic. --Steve Knopper Customer Reviews

However, having purchased ... Read More: Rating: - "Old man look at my life......I'm a lot like you. I need someone to love me the whole day through." Folk/Rock at it's best. Simple acoustic chords, haunting lyrics, and poignant stories. Arguably, this is Neil's masterpiece album. The Needle and the Damage Done, is a wonderful lament for friends lost to drugs. Old Man is an ode to the caretaker on a ranch that Neil bought some time ago. Heart of Gold is just that...Solid! As a lad I spun this LP every night when I hit the sack. I had a Hohner harmonica and played along. This disc belongs in the time capsule of my life. Enjoy it for years to come. Rating: - Neil Young made History with Harvest."Dream up, dream up, let me fill your cup With the promise of a man." This was one on the first albums I ever bought, and it remains a favorite. Harvest is Neil Young's signature album with his distinctive folk-esque acoustic guitar and harmonica, and his deeply personal lyrics. Backed by "The Stray Gators," a group of country session musicians including Ben Keith on pedal steel guitar, Kenny Buttrey on drums, Tim Drummond on bass, and Jack Nitzsche on piano and slide guitar, along with backing vocals by James Taylor, David Crosby, Graham Nash, Linda Ronstadt, and Stephen Stills, Neil made history with Harvest. The album resulted in three hit singles, "Heart of Gold," "Old Man," and "The Needle and the Damage Done." The complete ... Read More: Rating: - oh yesThis is one of the best cd's I have ever bought. I was looking through some of my dads old vinyl and came across this masterpiece. I HAD to get the cd. It's timeless. Simply amazing. Every music lover should have this album. I could listen to it over and over again. BRILLIANT Thank you Neil Young Rating:  - A Real Bumper Harvest!"Harvest", Neil Young's fourth album (1972), and commercial success at that. Still, for a supposedly commercial album it has some of the most harrowing, personal, and emotional lyrics I have heard to date (this is something that comes with much of Neil Young's work, and it's that side of him that I like best). Perhaps the best example of this is "A Man Needs a Maid", a song of isolation and lonliness. In honesty, I didn't used to like this one- long, slow, and those long notes during the refrain really used to bug me for some reason. But now, the more I listen the more I dig; the orchestration is a masterpiece (and I don't care how many people say it's overproduced, saying that about ANY song is, in my opinion, idiotic, since it obvious pleased ...
