When I was at school Select Magazine ran a feature of the
Best 100 Albums released in the 90s. For the rest of that year, I made it my mission to hear, and own, all of them. This was a time before the internet so hearing all 100 was a long and laborious task. Bargain bins in record shops were scoured and family members were asked if they had any of the missing albums.
One of the harder ones to track down was Neil Young and Crazy Horseâs 1990 album âRagged Gloryâ. Ironically, my parents were happy for me to have Method Man, Snoop Doggy Dogg, The Prodigy, Portishead, and Green Day, but an album with a song called âFuckinâ Upâ was a bridge too far. Eventually I found someone at school whose Dad had it. I swapped the first Reel 2 Real album, and I had a copy for a week.

Fans will be able to get their hands on a 4xLP box set, a 2xCD set and a deluxe edition box set, with the latter format including a DVD, four LPs and two CDS. A digital release is also coming to the official Neil Young Archives site.
You can see a trailer for the Bernard Shakey-directed
Way Down In The Rust Bucket film above, as well as an audio live cut of ‘Country Home’.
“In true Crazy Horse fashion, the incendiary show ran across three sets and over three hours, with songs like ‘Love And Only Love’ and ‘Like A Hurricane’ hypnotically stretching past ten minutes,” a description reads.
