Some focus on Classic Rock recordings and artists, while others are about general musical issues or ideas. That quibble aside, Harvest (the top-selling album of 1972) deserves its 50th Anniversary celebration.įor some added details on the box set and a review of the fun-to-watch Harvest Time film, click here An album this good certainly wasn’t made up of miraculous single takes of each song. What’s missing from the box set are what had to be many more outtakes or alternate versions of songs that were included on Harvest. But, Neil has always done things his way. At the time of the concert, he had already released three solo albums, and could have performed better known songs like “Cinnamon Girl”, “Down By The River”, “Cowgirl In The Sand”, “Tell Me Why”, and many others. What was unusual is that Neil performed the new songs he was developing for “Harvest”. Overall, it’s an enjoyable half-hour set. About two-thirds of the way through the first song, “Out On The Weekend”, Neil forgets the lyrics and just fills in with some oohs. The BBC concert has improved audio from any previously available version. “Bad Fog Of Loneliness” is a good but not great song, and “Dance Dance Dance” seems like a lesser version of “Love Is A Rose”. It’s a shame “Journey Through The Past” wasn’t originally included on Harvest. The outtake on this new set sounds very similar, but without the harmonica. It’s a country version with Neil’s back-up band, The Stray Gators, and it’s excellent.

What’s sparked the most interest is that both sets include a DVD of a 2-hour documentary, Harvest Time. “Journey Through The Past”, “Bad Fog Of Loneliness”, and “Dance Dance Dance”. There are also three outtakes in each box set…. It’s strange to hear the now famous guitar introduction of the #1 hit, “Heart Of Gold”, and no one applauds, because no one has ever heard the song before!
