Den længe ventede udgivelse af Neil Young´s ”Archives” – den definitive, omfattende og kronologiske gennemgang af hans samlede værker, produceret af Rock&Roll Hall of Fame manden selv – er begyndt.
Enestående i sit omfang, dybde og kvalitet, første udgivelse i en serie af flere boxsets – Neil Young Archives Vol. 1 (1963 – 1972) i både 8CD og 10 discs DVD/BluRay versioner – dækker perioden fra hans første indspilninger i Winnipeg over hans klassiske ´Harvest´ album og videre. Foruden hans solo numre er numre fra Buffalo Springfield, Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young og Crazy Horse inkluderet.
Indeholdende 128 indspilninger – heraf 48 ikke før udgivet – og alle i den bedst muligt mastereret kvalitets lyd, gør ´Archives Vol 1´ til fundamentet for den ultimative samling for en af rock historiens mest hyldede artister.

Naturligvis indeholder en mastodont som dette første bokssæt masser af fantastisk musik.
Resultatet af alene arkivararbejdet i karrierens formative år fra 1963 til 1972 er fuldkommende overvældende, hvad angår omfang, lydkvalitet, bonusmateriale, uudgivne sange og ukendte versioner af kendte numre, liveoptagelser, interview, billeder, film og private optegnelser.
Det er på tide at tage en meget dyb indånding og kæmpe sig igennem det enorme materiale I første omgang vælger jeg at gå om bord i cd-boksen frem for dvd-blokken.
