CD Reviews

Neil Young's Most Underrated Album

The Footpath Cowboy | Kingston, NY United States | 06/13/2009

(5 out of 5 stars)

"AMERICAN STARS 'N' BARS is Neil Young's most underrated album ever. Not even the artist himself has made any grand claims for it, and, given the low-key performances that make up much of the album, it's easy to see why. However, it does feature two of Neil's best rockers of the 1976-78 period, "Bite The Bullet" and "Like A Hurricane", both of which sound like a mutant hybrid of hippie-country-folk-rockers Buffalo Springfield and pro-law-enforcement hard rocker Ted Nugent, with a huge helping of Montrose (another band featuring a pro-law-enforcement member, Sammy Hagar), thrown in. This CD deserves a wider hearing than the original album got."

One of my favorites of all time!

"This cd has such a good feel to it. You hardly ever hear mention of this cd but it is one of my favorites of Neil Young. Makes me want to get up and ride a Palamino to the nearest bar!"

C'mon - it's a good album...

"I laugh whenever I look at the cover on this album. Must've been some night.

Anyway - I bought this thing cheap, and find that I reach for it much more than I felt I would after the first listening. Of course it has "Like a Hurricane", one of my faves. But I've got to say that, with the exception of "Will to Love" (blah), the other tunes on this are pretty catchy. Most of it has a country feel. They let go a bit on "Bite the Bullet", and "Homegrown" just sticks in your head. It's pretty good, and I play it more than I thought I would."
