Most of the the Neil Young CDs are pretty poor transfers with low output and high hiss!

Only four of his 70's Reprise albums have had a decent re-master : On The Beach, American Stars'n'Bars, Hawks & Doves & Re-ac-tor. These are also available on DVD-Audio

You can get Harvest on DVD-Audio which has both 2 channel and multi channel mixes and both do the album justice

The multi channel mix is how Neil wanted it in the old days of quad, as if you were listening to the band playing in a barn whilst sitting in a field

The Vinyl version is still the best. The DVD-A is good (very) but still prefer it on LP. The CD versions were slatted by Young himself. He isn't that impressed with any of the digital versions.

Agree Kenny, the DVD-A of 'On the Beach' is first class. Stars and bars is also good, but I'm not really that keen on the album anyway. Comes a time is better.

Overkill

I haven't heard the vinyl copy since I was at school in the late 70's

The CDs are very poor apart from the four that I mentioned and those albums are not considered to be Neil's best!

Mind you AS'n'B does have Like A Hurricane Pity it is 2 channel DVD-A only though
