Customer Reviews

Not A Classic!!
I bought this album when it was released on vinyl! The tracks with Crazy Horse are excellent. But the ones without CH are very ordinary. It gets 3 stars because of Crazy Horse. Without them this album would actually suck!! Sorry.

A true gem
Although Ian McNabb is not a household name this album in my opinion is a rock classic. Brilliantly supported by Neil Young's backing band the legendary Crazy Horse the album kicks off with 3 superb tracks. The tracks with the Horse are the stand outs as you'd expect but overall the album is very strong and McNabb's vocal is great. The sound has a big feel and it's a great record to play in the car. I don't think anyone who buys this cd will be disappointed and listening to it has certainly made we want to hear more of McNabb's other stuff.

Let's Rock!
I was sitting in my tent at Glastonbury in 1994 (on the Friday, I think) leafing through the programme I'd just bought when I noticed the words "Crazy Horse" attached to the blurb for Ian McNabb's midday spot on the main stage. Having been repeatedly promised and then denied the chance to see Neil Young & Crazy Horse by the Glastonbury rumour mill over the years I thought I'd better not miss this opportunity, so I made my way down to the main stage (I may have called in at the beer tent on the way). What followed was as entertaining an hour or so of amped-up ramshackle rock & roll as I've ever spent (helped by McNabb's obvious glee at having the world's greatest bar band as his backing group), and I made a note to buy the album when it cam out.

There are four Crazy Horse-backed tracks on this album (the first three and the last one), of which the first (Fire Inside My Soul) captures the thunderous energy of the live set most successfully. All are well worth a listen, though, and while the album dips a bit in the middle (for me at least) when Crazy Horse shuffle offstage, it's of a generally high standard throughout. The only thing that lets the album down, in fact, is one of the worst album covers in living memory - what's the connection with the ventriloquist's dummy? Beats me. Nice photo (in the jewel case inlay) of McNabb sitting on the toilet in the middle of the desert, though. That's Scouse humour for you.
