Recognized as one of Young's (and hence one of rock & roll's) finest albums, HARVEST put the singer on the mainstream map with the mega-hit "Heart of Gold," which defined a soft folk-rock style frequently revisited by lesser artists throughout the 1970s. It also features some of his darker compositions, like the entropy-obsessed "Old Man" and the junkie eulogy, "The Needle and the Damage Done," one of Young's most haunting and compelling songs.

Deceptively laid-back-sounding country-rock plaints like "Out on the Weekend" and the title cut caress the ear unassumingly, pulling you into the more ominous subtext that is present even in the rollicking "Are You Ready for the Country." As always, Young has an ear for contrasts, laying down heavy rock ("Alabama") beside his balladry, and even employing the London Symphony Orchestra on the excellent confessional "A Man Needs a Maid." Due to back troubles, Young recorded much of this material while wearing a brace, a fact that seems audible in the tension and unease that underlies the friendly, acoustic surface of this superb release.Rolling Stone (12/11/03, p.114) - Ranked #78 in Rolling Stone's "500 Greatest Albums Of All Time" - "...Americana - steel, guitar, slide guitar, banjo - stripped down and rebuilt with every jagged edge exposed..."
Q (7/00, p.141) - Included in Q's "The Best Male Angst Albums Of All Time" - "...The showcase for [his] most affecting artistic devices..."
Mojo (Publisher) (11/01, p.150) - "...If he was laid-back at this time it was simply because spinal surgery had made him literally so..."
NME (Magazine) (10/2/93, p.29) - Ranked #60 in NME's list of the 'Greatest Albums Of All Time.'
NME (Magazine) (9/18/93, p.19) - Ranked #22 in NME's list of the 'Greatest Albums Of The '70s.'

4 stars Harvest
I remember when this album came out early in Young's solo career, after CSN&Y. It has never faded. It's now part of my Young Collection.

This is the folk rock album that all others are measured by! It really set the standard and is the benchmark for a listening generation.

5 stars One of his most popular albums ever...
"Harvest" is a wonderful album containing some wonderful songs. The songs I like on this title are: Out on the Weekend, the title track (Harvest), Heart of Gold, Old Man, and perhaps one or two others. This is obviously one of Neil's most popular albums that he released during his career. It was also noted that he had back problems and was wearing a brace while making this album. I believe that the best known song on this album is Heart of Gold, and I think it is a great one. Old Man is wonderful, too, and the other tracks I mentioned. Get this album if you don't yet have it; it will be a nice addition to your collection.
