EXTD=Originally Released October 23, 2007 \n\nAMG EXPERT REVIEW:  Neil
EXTD= Young spent his 2006 hawking Living with War, an album as immedi
EXTD=ate as a news bulletin, so perhaps it made sense that after its p
EXTD=romo push was done he would retreat into the past, planning to fi
EXTD=nally finish Archives, the long-promised box set of unreleased pe
EXTD=rformances from his vaults. Two individual discs of classic live 
EXTD=performances were released in the winter of 2006/2007, acting as 
EXTD=a teaser for the proposed fall release of the box, but like with 
EXTD=most things involving Neil, things didn't work precisely as plann
EXTD=ed, as he once again pushed Archives to the back burner so he cou
EXTD=ld release Chrome Dreams II, a sequel to an album that never came
EXTD= out in the first place. The first Chrome Dreams was slated for a
EXTD= 1977 release, but for some indiscernible reason Young scrapped t
EXTD=he album, parsing out some of the songs on subsequent albums, som
EXTD=etimes re-recording the originals, sometimes overdubbing, sometim
EXTD=es just sticking the previously unreleased tracks onto new albums
EXTD=. Among the Chrome Dreams songs that popped later are some of his
EXTD= greatest, including "Like a Hurricane" and an originally acousti
EXTD=c "Powderfinger" and "Pocahontas," along with other such excellen
EXTD=t tunes as "Sedan Delivery," "Too Far Gone," and "Look Out for My
EXTD= Love," a pedigree that would suggest that Chrome Dreams II could
EXTD= include its fair share of major songs. Despite the inclusion of 
EXTD=the long-bootlegged (and simply long at a lumbering 18 minutes) "
EXTD=Ordinary People," that's not quite true: it's a modest collection
EXTD= of stray songs and new tunes, pieced together in a fashion simil
EXTD=ar to 1989's Freedom, which in fact is where the 1977 "Too Far Go
EXTD=ne" was finally unveiled. \n\nIndeed, Chrome Dreams II shares mor
EXTD=e similarities to Freedom than the original Chrome Dreams -- so m
EXTD=uch so that it's a mystery why it's dubbed as a sequel, but it's 
EXTD=a mystery not worth pondering, as there are few clues to their co
EXTD=rrelation, and even if a definitive answer to their kinship could
EXTD= be dredged up, it wouldn't illuminate the 2007 album, which is m
EXTD=erely a good Neil Young album. Perhaps a little more than good, a
EXTD=ctually, as this has a shagginess and tattered heart that's been 
EXTD=missing from his work for a long time, as he's spent a good chunk
EXTD= of the past 15 years pursuing conceptual works, ranging from the
EXTD=matic concept albums (Living with War, Greendale) to musical genr
EXTD=e exercises (Are You Passionate?, Prairie Wind). Here Neil dabble
EXTD=s in all his signatures, starting the album with the sweet countr
EXTD=y corn of "Beautiful Bluebird," then careening to the mildly mena
EXTD=cing minor-key groove "Boxcar" before he gets to the light, almos
EXTD=t bouncy soul-pop of "The Believer" (complete with call-and-respo
EXTD=nse backing vocals), the Crazy Horse mysticism of "Spirit Road," 
EXTD=the lazy loping country of "Every After," and the elongated guita
EXTD=r workout of "No Hidden Path." He even gets way out with "The Way
EXTD=," singing with a children's choir, a stab at innocence that's ch
EXTD=eerfully at odds with the sludgy "Dirty Old Man," an unexpected r
EXTD=evival of the boneheaded off-color jokes of "Welfare Mothers," an
EXTD=d then, of course, there's the album's centerpiece, "Ordinary Peo
EXTD=ple," a winding epic recorded with the Bluenotes in 1988 that's d
EXTD=ated in its splashy production (and perhaps its blaring horns, si
EXTD=nce Neil largely abandoned the Bluenotes after This Note's for Yo
EXTD=u), yet it sounds immediate and gripping. It's the kind of song t
EXTD=o build an album upon, which is precisely what Neil has done with
EXTD= Chrome Dreams II, using it as an excuse to round up other songs 
EXTD=with no home. This doesn't make for an album that holds together 
EXTD=thematically the way other latter-day Neil albums do, but its mes
EXTD=s is endearing, recalling how charmingly ragged albums like After
EXTD= the Gold Rush, Tonight's the Night, Rust Never Sleeps, and Freed
EXTD=om are, even if Chrome Dreams II never manages to soar as high as
EXTD= those classics.  -- Stephen Thomas Erlewine\n\nAmazon.com Editor
EXTD=ial Review\nWhat we have here is easily Mr. Young's finest work i
EXTD=n years, one that erases the memory of his well-intentioned but a
EXTD=nemic 2006 protest album, Living with War. Recorded using analog 
EXTD=gear, with Crazy Horse drummer Ralph Molina, pedal steel guitaris
EXTD=t Ben Keith, and Rick Rosas on bass, CD2 manages to sound both ho
EXTD=me-grown and experimental. It's the work of an artist still not a
EXTD=fraid to take chances, who also knows what his strengths are and 
EXTD=doesn't stray too far from them. Trainspotters will note that thr
EXTD=ee of the ten songs were written but never released before, while
EXTD= we all might puzzle over the title. Chrome Dreams is the name of
EXTD= an unreleased album from 1977. So, why is this Chrome Dreams II?
EXTD= Is it a similar case to 1992's Harvest Moon, when Young went bac
EXTD=k to the virtual land of his 1972 hit Harvest to write more mater
EXTD=ial in that vein? As the original was reportedly lost in a fire, 
EXTD=we may never know. Chrome Dreams II offers up gorgeous, plaintive
EXTD= laments and country-tinged numbers sung in that achy breaky, hea
EXTD=rt-on-sleeve voice of Young's, as well as ragged barn-storming ro
EXTD=ckers delivered with a growl. There's even an 18-minute dirge tha
EXTD=t excitedly mixes R&B back-up horns with searing electric guitar 
EXTD=leads! Wow. --Mike McGonigal \n\n\nAMAZON.COM CUSTOMER REVIEW\nA 
EXTD=Best of 2007, October 30, 2007 \nBy  S. Vahey "A Music Fan" (Nort
EXTD=heast USA)\nFor me this is in the top 5 releases of 2007. Its jus
EXTD=t awesome Neil. The sound quality on the bonus DVD in the collect
EXTD=or's edition is fantastic thru a good home theater. Its 96kHz ste
EXTD=reo, and sounds really excellent. If only more artists did this I
EXTD='d be a happy guy. Its getting depressing that most of the time y
EXTD=ou have to track down vinyl recordings to get a true audiophile e
EXTD=xperience of new material. Due to the loudness race, many artists
EXTD= are releasing overcompressed and over-loud standard CD's, and th
EXTD=en releasing a properly mastered version on vinyl for audiophiles
EXTD=. Which are usually about $25-30. Well I applaud Neil for giving 
EXTD=us the hi-res DVD packaged with the CD for a nice price of under 
EXTD=$20. It sounds fantastic! This edition is a gift, not a rip-off a
EXTD=s someone mentioned. If you care about the sound quality of what 
EXTD=you listen to, this is the version you want. Just don't buy this 
EXTD=version expecting to have something to watch, its just a series o
EXTD=f morphing still pictures to accompany the hi-rez audio. \n\nNow 
EXTD=as for the actual songs, I love them. My favorite at the moment i
EXTD=s the 14:31 long guitar jam "No Hidden Path". I dont think it get
EXTD=s much better than that if youre a Neil fan. Really all the songs
EXTD= are excellent, other favorites are Beautiful Bluebird, Boxcar an
EXTD=d Spirit Road. Neil just keeps on going, putting out albums that 
EXTD=blow the doors off artists half his age. I hope he keeps giving u
EXTD=s more gems like this for many years to come. \n\n\nAMAZON.COM CU
EXTD=STOMER REVIEW\nA MOSTLY SATISFYING "TEASER" OF AN ALBUM, November
EXTD= 5, 2007 \nBy  John W. Evans (La Grande, OR United States)\nI had
EXTD= been eagerly anticipating the release of the always enigmatic Ne
EXTD=il Young's newest CD "Chrome Dreams II" for quite some time, in p
EXTD=art because it contains several songs I have heard on bootlegged 
EXTD=recordings for the last 10 to 15 years. After a few listens to hi
EXTD=s new album, I find myself perplexed. I find it to be a comfortab
EXTD=le and reassuring listen, but I don't find it particularly exciti
EXTD=ng either. \n\nIt seems that life-changing experiences can mellow
EXTD= people out sometimes, as they often appear to gain a greater per
EXTD=spective in regard to humanity and to their own place within the 
EXTD=world. I think Neil Young has found some great inner peace, but I
EXTD= think the music has lost some of its fire in the past ten years 
EXTD=or so, most notably so since he had the surgery for his aneurysm.
EXTD= Thus, I'm not surprised that the music itself seems to lack some
EXTD= of the fire we used to hear in Young's work. I think it's cool t
EXTD=hat Neil has become a kind of spiritual guy and all (check out so
EXTD=ng titles like "Spirit Road", "The Believer", "No Hidden Path", "
EXTD=The Way", "Ever After" and "Shining Light"), but there doesn't se
EXTD=em to be a whole lot on "Chrome Dreams II" that smolders the way 
EXTD=things used to with Young and his band Crazy Horse. I like his st
EXTD=uff more when he's smoldering. If I want to see and hear Neil in 
EXTD=his present frame of mind circa 2006, I'll get out my copy of his
EXTD= film "Heart of Gold", as it is a wonderful testament to peace, h
EXTD=umanity and friendship through music. \n\nBy all indications, Nei
EXTD=l Young is in a comfort zone musically and life-wise. Even if I t
EXTD=hink such a comfort zone produces music that is in some ways less
EXTD= vital to me as a listener, I have to hand it to Neil. How many o
EXTD=f us can get to the highly positive point in life where he seems 
EXTD=to be now? \n\nEven with all that said, this new CD has a lot to 
EXTD=offer. My favorite of the new tracks is "The Way", the last cut o
EXTD=n the CD. It is a very atmospheric song, with lyrics suggesting t
EXTD=hat things are right there in front of us if we only look... we d
EXTD=on't have to be lost. Young doesn't seem to be plugging any parti
EXTD=cular way to be "found", he just tells us we can find a way if we
EXTD= look for it. I also love the sprawling, overly-long and horn-lad
EXTD=en "Ordinary People"; this album's version of the song clocks in 
EXTD=at a little over 18 minutes. It's a song I've heard many times on
EXTD= bootleg recordings over the past 10-15 years, and among Young's 
EXTD=die-hard fans it has acquired a sort of legendary status. Lyrical
EXTD=ly it's all over the place and a bit confusing, but it seems to f
EXTD=it together pretty well after a few listens. \n\n"Boxcar" is anot
EXTD=her tune from years ago that has been bootlegged many, many times
EXTD=. While "Ordinary People" appears to have been recorded by one of
EXTD= Young's "Blue Notes" band line-ups from the time of the "This No
EXTD=te's For You" album, "Boxcar" has been recently redone. I would h
EXTD=ave rather heard one of the original versions than a re-do, but I
EXTD= still like the tune. Of other songs on the CD, I think "Dirty Ol
EXTD=d Man" is amusing and fun, but highly out of place on the album i
EXTD=n regard to the album's general spiritual mood. "No Hidden Path" 
EXTD=is kind of a cool, long Neil jam tune and "Spirit Road" is electr
EXTD=ic enough... although I don't think either of those two tracks co
EXTD=me very close to anything as intensely powerful as "Love and Only
EXTD= Love" or "Love to Burn" from the 1990 "Ragged Glory" album, for 
EXTD=example. \n\nI don't think "Chrome Dreams II" is going to find it
EXTD=s way into bargain bins like some of Young's other outings. I wou
EXTD=ldn't rank "Chrome Dreams II" as highly as such "recent" Young cl
EXTD=assics as 1992's "Harvest Moon" or 1989's "Freedom" and the relat
EXTD=ively-unknown but amazingly good "Eldorado" EP CD from about that
EXTD= same time (released only in Japan and Germany), but I definitely
EXTD= like "Chrome Dreams II" better than the seemingly desultory "Gre
EXTD=endale" material, the blandly pleasant "Prairie Wind" and "Silver
EXTD= and Gold", the lyrically relevant but musically cobbled-together
EXTD= "Living With War", the warmed-over cold-leftover live collection
EXTD= "Road Rock Vol. 1" and the mostly uninspired "Are You Passionate
EXTD=". \n\nIn other words, I think "Chrome Dreams II" IS Neil Young's
EXTD= best release of the past ten years, but calling it that isn't re
EXTD=ally too much of a stretch for me considering that I find his rec
EXTD=ent output spotty at best. \n\nYoung is now releasing some older 
EXTD="live" recordings at long last, including a couple from Massey Ha
EXTD=ll and the Fillmore that are very, very good. Neil Young has enou
EXTD=gh unreleased songs that if he wanted to he could release at leas
EXTD=t five or six hours of very good songs, mostly ones unheard by ju
EXTD=st about all of us. \n\nI keep hoping his "archives" series will 
EXTD=give us more than just the live material, and that some of what w
EXTD=e hear will not be older songs redone, as "Boxcar" has been on "C
EXTD=hrome Dreams II" and as I believe "Razor Love" was done on "Silve
EXTD=r and Gold". I rather hope that we will get to hear his unrelease
EXTD=d songs in their original forms, as in the recordings from 20-40 
EXTD=years ago. Here's hoping he will release much of that "lost" mate
EXTD=rial. Of course it's up to Neil Young to do this, and for those o
EXTD=f us who have been following him throughout his career, we know h
EXTD=ow unpredictable he can be... sometimes delightfully, but sometim
EXTD=es frustratingly so. \n\n"Chrome Dreams II" seems like a kind of 
EXTD=stopgap album. Neil Young loves playing relaxing music with his f
EXTD=riends, which is what he is doing more of here, and that's fine. 
EXTD=That's what playing music should be all about, really. But for me
EXTD=, "Chrome Dreams II" is more of a musical teaser than anything: w
EXTD=ill we get to hear the original "lost" "Chrome Dreams" album some
EXTD=day? That "lost" album is a subject for another time... and maybe
EXTD= Neil Young named his new album "Chrome Dreams II" as a statement
EXTD= of sorts, that the days of the original "Chrome Dreams" are now 
EXTD=just the "days that used to be". Who knows? \n\nThis new CD as a 
EXTD=musical snapshot of where Neil seems to be at his current station
EXTD= in life, a place in which he realizes, with thanks to whatever s
EXTD=pirit he knows or seeks, that friends and the love of friends may
EXTD= be our most important earthly treasures. Then again, in some way
EXTD=s "Chrome Dreams II" almost has a feel of Young killing time and 
EXTD=having fun while he readies more stuff for release from his vault
EXTD=s. Either way, it's all o.k. with me. \n\nI find very little that
EXTD= is musically or lyrically immediate or profound about "Chrome Dr
EXTD=eams II", but it is a very pleasant CD to hear. I certainly have 
EXTD=to give it my Neil Young fan Seal of Approval. The most important
EXTD= thing to me, more important than whether or not Young still has 
EXTD=a musical fire in his belly or whether he plans to release any of
EXTD= his unreleased songs, is knowing that he is alive, he is well, a
EXTD=nd he is still writing, playing and singing. Whatever Neil Young 
EXTD=does, I will always be a fan and I will always listen. And if you
EXTD= listen to "Chrome Dreams II" too, I think you will probably find
EXTD= things worth hearing. \n\n\nAMAZON.COM CUSTOMER REVIEW\nSomethin

EXTD=pt returning to the third cut, "Ordinary People," an almost unbel
EXTD=ievable 18 minute-plus powerhouse mosaic of society, written and

EXTD=e apparently drew him into other projects. Those who have followe
EXTD=d this man's amazing career know that it has happened a lot over 
EXTD=the years. I guess there just aren't enough hours in the day for 
EXTD=a genius to get his work done. Or, maybe it was that same prophet
EXTD=ic genius that told Young to wait until now, for the song's messa

EXTD= fear is that while this song is too great not to get air-play, c
EXTD=ommercial radio just won't sit still for an 18-minute listening e
EXTD=xperience. But for a song so great, it needs to be all or nothing
EXTD=. So, here I am, hundreds of characters into this review and I ha
EXTD=ven't managed to get past one song. Just buy the disc, okay? Trus
EXTD=t me on this one: when I finally got through it, I came away feel
EXTD=ing like I'd experienced a microcosm of Neil Young's unparalleled
EXTD= career. There are beautiful ballads and classic rockers in equal
EXTD= measure. Lyrically, there are enough lovers and dreamers for tho
EXTD=se who still believe that this runaway train we're on can be slow
EXTD=ed, stopped, and backed up. And there is enough guilt, regret, re

EXTD= an awesome winding epic song. It was recorded during This Note's
EXTD= for You's sessions, and if you ask me could've singlehandedly sa
EXTD=ved that album from being pathetic. Never mind that it's eighteen
EXTD= minutes long - there are all kinds of fascinating solos (guitar;
EXTD= sax; trumpet), and wonderful lyrics about the working-class. Not
EXTD=hing else comes close. It's one of those songs that bumps the rat
EXTD=ing up all by itself. But none of it's ground Neil hasn't covered
EXTD= before - even good songs like the hilarious "Dirty Old Man" and 
EXTD=crunchy, riff-filled "Spirit Road". The other long track, "No Hid

EXTD=los. Even then, it's a lot like "Change Your Mind". The country s
EXTD=ongs are considerably less impressive than the rockers - I'd rath
EXTD=er hear "Harvest Moon" or "Harvest" than "Ever After" or "Beautif
EXTD=ul Bluebird", and Neil's one of those few artists that can really
EXTD= make country sound good to me; "Boxcar" is only okay. And I'm no
EXTD= fan of "The Way" - unless you're Pink Floyd, you really shouldn'
EXTD=t be recording songs with children's choirs. But I gotta say that
EXTD= the peaks on this one are so good that they make it worth listen
EXTD=ing to even if it's unoriginal and pales in comparison to After t
EXTD=he Gold Rush and On the Beach, or even more recent works like Pra
EXTD=irie Wind and Harvest Moon. Still, the rockers on this one are so
EXTD=me of his best since Ragged Glory. \nFor the record, a LOT of my

EXTD=e've seen releases by the Smashing Pumpkins, Prince, Joni Mitchel

EXTD=ects, including Chrome Dreams I. This is not a great NY disc, no 
EXTD=matter what else you read. It has a better effect overall than th
EXTD=e individual songs do on their own. He starts and finishes strong
EXTD= with "Bluebird" (no Stills references) and "The Way." In between
EXTD= are the resurrection of "Ordinary People" (when Young, like Dyla
EXTD=n, was in dire need of an editor), "Spirit Road" and "Boxcar." Mo

EXTD= "Broken Arrow" from the upcoming Riverboat (Toronto club where h

EXTD=sion of this, Young is a force to be reckoned with. Briggs' geniu
EXTD=s was in his Teo Macero ability to cull what was extraordinary an

EXTD=ll, I like this. I am very glad to see Ordinary People hit daylig
EXTD=ht. There is often a mystique about Young's songs that were never
EXTD= officially released. Occasionally, it's worth the endeavour to s
EXTD=eek them out (Winterlong, Campaigner, Journey Through the Past), 
EXTD=most often it's a little less than impressive ("Push <drive, shov
EXTD=e, whatever> it over the cliff", "Bad fog"), a bit like the rest 
EXTD=of Young. This collection of odds and sods is a good cross sectio

EXTD=merits, it is more consistent that either Greendale or Living Wit

EXTD=e ever reliable Ben Keith is on hand to add that magic dust that 
EXTD=takes these tunes out of the garage and makes them worth the ligh
