Neil Young's very first solo album is in many ways his finest, too. Not quite out on the "one-note" limb where his second album Everybody Knows This Is Nowhere would take him, he was still working within the same melodic guitar-rock genre that he explored so well in the Buffalo Springfield. With the assistance of friend and producer Jack Nitzsche, who helped in arrangements here, Young constructed a superb set of songs that rank among his very finest, including "The Loner," "I've Been Waiting For You," and "What Did You Do To My Life?" Ironically, of all the "styles" Young has worked within since the early '70s, he has yet to really return to this one.
