Neil Young releases long-lost 1975 album, Homegrown
Neil Young’s long-lost album from 1975, Homegrown has finally seen the light of release day. The album can now be heard on most popular streaming platforms, as well as through Young’s own archive page. Physical editions of the album include both vinyl and CD editions.
Leading up to the seven-track album’s release, the singer-songwriter shared two singles, Try and Vacancy. Take a listen to the album’s opening number, Separate Ways below.
Bill Bentley, the writer in charge of Young’s archive website, penned an open letter to accompany the album’s release entitled Homegrown Comes Home.
“In so many ways, [Homegrown] is a revelation of the past, Bentley wrote. “A first draft collection of a dozen songs that fill the heart, jolt the memory, asks unanswerable questions and prove, once again, that rock ‘n’ roll will never die.”
“Homegrown, like all timeless music, is a puzzle full of promises, one that blends memories with visions, and is a trusted sound to turn to in the time each of us still has to share this life with others,” he explained.
“It is an album to look at on the floor leaning against the wall while its songs play at night in the dark, knowing that it – and hopefully we – will be there in the morning. It is, like Neil Young, a friend for life.” Read his full letter, here.
Meanwhile, Road Of Plenty, Young’s other planned archive release, is slated for 2021.
