I have finally achieved the closest thing to Neil’s guitar sound that I’ll ever be able to afford

Using my Origin Effects Deluxe 55 as a preamp straight into the power amp of my cheapo Peavey Studio Pro 112 (upgraded speaker to Jensen Mod 12/70). Pure Tweed Deluxe explosive bliss. 🤘

So, Rust Never Sleeps Side 1 or Side 2, Which do you prefer?

I like Side 2 more as "Hard Rock" Neil Young with Crazy Horse is my favorite kind of Neil Young, for sure like Side 1 as well & think Rust never sleeps is one of his best records.

I got a fever

I (old guy,in his 60s) used to have a really broad range of musical tastes. A varied palette. I prided myself on being tuned into and enjoying a lot of new stuff (lots of indie for example), in addition to the old. Not a brag. Just sayin’.

But since getting bitten by the Neil bug about three years ago….

It’s not that I listen to nothing but Neil, but I figure close to half of my music listening is devoted to his stuff.

And it’s great! I’m not complaining. His music just hits me. And keeps hitting me. Which is weird because I all but ignored him for the entirety of my music-listening life up until so recently. Kinda kicking myself now. It would have been terrific riding the wave real time. (Then again I guess I’d have had the disappointment of Landing on Water, etc. 😂)

Anyway just a random musing of an old man.

Happy Sunday.

Some people liked my last cover, so here’s another one.

I messed up some of the timings with the chorus. The whole timing of the lyrics in the song is a little tricky for me for some reason.
