Press release | This album is the unheard bridge between Neil Young Harvest and Comes a Time. Recorded between June 1974 and January 1975, Homegrown was intended to come out in 1975 before Neil cancelled the release. The album has remained unreleased until now, achieving a legendary status among Neil Young fans in the process.
The album is made up of twelve Neil Young songs, of which seven are previously unreleased - Separate Ways, Try, Mexico, Kansas, We Don’t Smoke It No More, Vacancy and Florida, a spoken word narration. Also included are the first recordings of Love Is A Rose, Homegrown, White Line, Little Wing and Star Of Bethlehem – different versions of which would all later appear on other Neil Young albums.
Neil plays solo on some tracks – guitar, piano and harmonica, and is joined by a band of friends on other tracks, including Levon Helm, Ben Keith, Karl T Himmel, Tim Drummond, Emmylou Harris and Robbie Robertson.
Recorded in analog, and mastered from the original master tapes, this long-lost album is a wonderful addition to Neil’s incomparable catalog. Buy Homegrown now here.
