Numbered, Limited Edition Neil Young Box Set.
Remastered from the Original Studio Recordings at Bernie Grundman Mastering!
This box set continues the chronological re-releasing of Neil Young's official releases, remastered where analog tapes exist. Volume 4, released as a 4LP box, includes Hawks & Doves from 1980 (ORS 13), Re•ac•tor (with Crazy Horse) from 1981 (ORS 14), This Note's for You from 1988 (ORS 20), and Eldorado from 1989 (ORS 21). These albums bookend the period 1982-1987 when Neil recorded for Geffen Records, hence the non-sequential ORS numbers. This is the first official vinyl release of Eldorado, a five-track mini-album (previously only released on CD in Australia and Japan), and it includes two much-sought-after tracks, "Cocaine Eyes" and "Heavy Love." The vinyl of Hawks & Doves, Re•ac•tor and This Note's for You have all been remastered from the original analog tapes by Chris Bellman at Bernie Grundman Mastering. Eldorado vinyl is mastered using the 44/16 digital master.
One of the most influential artists of all time, Neil Young has set a standard of artistic integrity and iconoclastic creativity. Before starting his multi-platinum solo career, he was a founding member of the folk-rock band Buffalo Springfield and worked with the groups Crazy Horse and Crosby, Stills and Nash. The Canadian singer-songwriter was recognized by the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1995 for his work as a solo artist and was inducted into the Canadian Music Hall of Fame in 1982. Young's philanthropic work is as renowned as his musical legacy. His famous Bridge School Benefit Concert has become a yearly tradition since 1986 and continues to boast an incredible lineup of high-profile artists. Each year, Young donates all of the proceeds to the Bay Area's Bridge School, which assists children with severe physical impairments and complex communication needs. He was also one of the original founders of Farm Aid in 1985, and continues to be an active member on the organization's board of directors.
