Both artistically and stylistically HARVEST MOON is the successor to HARVEST, Neil Young's landmark acoustic album from 1971, which featured the No. 1 single, "Heart Of Gold."

The song "Harvest Moon" was nominated for a 1994 Grammy Award as "Record Of The Year."

The song "Harvest Moon" was nominated for a 1994 Grammy Award as "Song Of The Year."

Neil Young's sequel to 1972's HARVEST found him reuniting with the Stray Gators and inviting along a few other famous friends. Unlike Crazy Horse's sonic bludgeoning, the Gators' light playing featured ethereal-sounding pedal steel and harmonies that caressed like a gentle lover. This was the perfect compliment for Young's songwriting, which was fueled by romantic notions of courtship and deep thought. Young and Nicolette Larson harmonized and became the lovers of "You and Me," whereas Jack Nitzsche's string arrangements made for a nice contrast in "Such a Woman," a bold-faced declaration of love. Other insights into the normally cranky iconoclast's sentimental side include the delicate touch of the title track, which leaves an image of slow-dancing in a dark corner.

Fast approaching 50, Neil Young also used HARVEST MOON to reflect back on his life, particularly in the biographical "One of These Days," and "From Hank to Hendrix," a twangy sequel to "My My, Hey Hey (Out of The Blue)." Young also continued his commitment to the environment by including both a protest against man's destruction of nature ("War of Man") and a live tribute to the forest and jungles recorded at a Portland, Oregon performance that included sounds of the Brazilian rainforest ("Natural Beauty.")

Certified platinum 1992 album arranged by Jack Nitzsche and featuring background singers Linda Ronstadt and James Taylor. 10 tracks. Reprise.

Recorded at Redwood Digital, Woodside, California.

Personnel: Neil Young (vocals, guitar, harmonica); Kenny Buttrey, Tim Drummond, Ben Keith, Spooner Oldham, Astrid Young, Larry Cragg.

Rolling Stone (11/26/92, p.71) - 4 Stars - Excellent - "...sounds like the calm after the storm, with a hushed musical landscape at times populated only by a ghostly harmonica, a few spooky bass lines and Young's cracked tenor...within these spare settings, Young's search for shelter from the storm resonates like a heartbeat..."
Spin (12/92, p.89) - Highly Recommended - "...HARVEST MOON is all strummed acoustic chords, scenic choral overdubs, melodies cruising smooth as an air-conditioned limo on a two-lane blacktop. Underneath the tranquility and cosmic platitudes, there's a human highway..."
Entertainment Weekly (11/13/92, p.78) - "...In both music and tone, HARVEST MOON is wistful and elegiac....it's the classic-rock equivalent of a late-period Sinatra saloon-song album....comfortable, reassuring, and proudly old wave..." - Rating: B+
Q (12/99, p.74) - Included in Q Magazine's "90 Best Albums Of The 1990s."
Q (1/93, p.69) - Included in Q's list of the 50 Best Albums Of 1992.
Q (12/92, p.141) - 4 Stars - Excellent - "...he has surrounded his meditations in some of his simplest, most gorgeous melodies in years..."
Musician (12/92, p.93) - "...this unadorned folk music exudes real weight....Young at his best..."
Village Voice (3/2/93, p.5) - Ranked #17 in the Village Voice's list of the 40 Best Albums Of 1992.
Audio Magazine (2/93, p.92) - Sound: B / Performance: A- - "...simple and subtle..."
Vox (12/92, p.62) - 10 - Classic - "...Though essentially a warm, emotional album, it doesn't flinch from a realization that innocent idealism is no longer a viable commodity on mankind's futures market...HARVEST MOON may be the best work he's ever done..."
(3/93, p.52) - "...HARVEST MOON has the same haunted sound as its predecessor....vintage Neil Young..."
Mojo (Publisher) (11/01, p.151) - "...It's a more mature, contented record, with a good deal of gentle nostalgia..."

5 stars ONE OF NEIL YOUNGS BEST
okay, i'll be honest, Neil Young has done so many good songs over the years I lose count. But I can tell you that every single one of the songs on this album are incredible! My personal favorites are "You and Me", "War of Man", "From Hank to Hendrix" and "Natural Beauty". Highly recomendable album.

5 stars The Best Easy Listening CD
This CD by Neil Young is just the opposite as his last studio album. Its surely the best that he's done, and my favorite easy listening CD of my collection. All the songs are great and so laid back. Its a marvelous sequel to his classic 'Harvest" record.

Neil Young Tonight's The Night CD  (1975)

Harvest Moon
CD $9.25  4.8 stars Top 100 Audio Samples Definitive Album
Let's get a popular misconception out of the way. The rap about this being one of Young's darkest, most harrowing albums is utter nonsense, perpetuated by critics who spend more time reading each other than listening to the music. TONIGHT'S THE NIGHT is dedicated to Young's guitarist Danny Whitten and roadie Bruce Berry, who died shortly before this recording was made, and the title cut details that very subject, but the darker moments here are leavened by a generous share of self-parodic humor and general Neil Young loopiness. Sad, tender ballads like "Borrowed Tune," (itself not without humor) rub shoulders with hearty rockers like "Come On Baby Let's Go Downtown." Several tunes find Young and Crazy ...

Neil Young Comes A Time CD  (1978)

Harvest Moon
CD $9.15  4.3 stars Top 100 Audio Samples
With steel guitars, fiddles and lots of acoustic guitars, this low-key folk-rock album harks back to Young's great AFTER THE GOLD RUSH-HARVEST period, and if it doesn't measure up that's only because of the ridiculously high standards the earlier albums set. Taken by itself, COMES A TIME is a fine collection, anchored by the timeless wonderment of the title song; a cover of Ian & Sylvia's "Four Strong Winds," and the nearly indescribable "Look Out For My Love," which is either a love song, a threat or both. COMES A TIME also features "Lotta Love," which was released simultaneously by Nicolette Larson and was a major hit for her. Larson doesn't sing on Young's version, but her background vocals distinguish much of the rest of COMES A TIME. Crazy Horse puts in an unusually low-key--but typically warm and ragged--appearance on two songs, "Look Out For My Love" and "Lotta Love."

The album continues its collage of styles, from the wistfulness of "Only Love Can Break Your Heart" to song fragments like "Til the Morning Comes" to the transformation of Don Gibson's "Oh Lonesome Me" from canter to ballad. But the crowning achievements are the album's magnificent title track, a vividly drawn portrait of post-'60s melancholy, and the gorgeous, aching "Birds," a swan song heralding emotional departure. Both songs are graced by Nils Lofgren's delicate piano, and stand as two of Young's finest compositions. In a catalogue filled with rock classics, ...

All tracks have been digitally remastered using HDCD technology. Released right after the career albums TONIGHT'S THE NIGHT and ZUMA and right before the big-selling COMES A TIME and RUST NEVER SLEEPS, this country-rocky 1977 album is often forgotten. But it introduced the sensational "Like A Hurricane," which has remained a staple of Young's concerts, and such quirky favorites as "Homegrown," an ode to marijuana, and ...
