Neil Young: Chrome Dreams

From neilyoung.com:

YOUNG PLAYS NEW RECORD FOR REPRISE
NY Times, August 16, 2007

Neil Young

Continuing a tradition that goes back to 1969, Neil Young played his latest recording for Reprise yesterday. The recording was played for about 100 people in Burbank. Produced by "The Volume Dealers," NY and Niko Bolas, the recording runs 60+ minutes and includes two giant songs that time in at 18:30 and 13:00, respectively.

Drawing from three songs written previously, and 7 new songs, the latest Neil Young is a very diverse recording. A release date is unknown at this time. The title is Chrome Dreams II.

Chrome Dreams is a legendary NY album from 1977 that had originally been scheduled for release but was shelved. The original cover for Chrome Dreams was created by Neil's long-time producer and friend, the late David Briggs. Unfortunately, all original documentation and art for this album was lost in a fire that destroyed Neil's Malibu home in early 1978.

Neil rides again!! I'll soak up as much as this legendary man will give. Always excited to see anything coming from Neil, especially something unreleased now combined with something new! Can't wait for the release and hoping for some tour dates. Happy trails!

This man is a songwriting genius. I once heard that of the 800 songs that CSNY played around with/recorded, Young wrote over 600 of them. Such a visionary. Can't wait to hear the album.

One of the best ever...Anything Neil touches turns to gold. He is a genius as a songwriter and has withstood the test of time. 100 years from now, people will still be listening to Neil Young.

Neil is a North American treasure. Year after year of great new music. I caught CSNY last year and (thanks to Neil) it kicked ass. Stills and Young centerstage toe to toe rocking out on almost every song. Rock and Roll!
