Description
"Colorado" is the first new Neil Young with Crazy Horse album since 2012's "Psychedelic Pill". The album will be released on October 25th and features 10 new Neil Young compositions. It includes several songs that Neil has been playing live in the past few months (eg: "Rainbow of Colors", "Green Is Blue" and "Milky Way"), and the epic 13+ minute track "She Showed Me Love".

The vinyl version of the album comes with a bonus 7" single, featuring an album outtake "Truth Kills". The 7” also includes a live, solo version of "Rainbow of Colors" from Portland, OR, on May 17, 2019 - the first time Neil ever performed this song live.

This incarnation of Crazy Horse is Neil Young on vocals, guitar, piano, harmonica and vibes, Billy Talbot on bass, Ralph Molina on drums and features the return of Nils Lofgren on guitar and piano, almost 50 years since he last appeared on a Crazy Horse album (1971).

The album is produced by Neil Young and John Hanlon and was recorded in Colorado in April & May 2019.

Neil posted this on his website:

Quote:

CRAZY HORSE IN STUDIO!

At least 11 new songs, all written recently, are going to be recorded starting this week.

Crazy Horse’s last studio album - ‘Psychedelic Pill’, was released in 2012 and this newest ‘Crazy Horse’ album should be released in 2019. Nils Lofgren is an original member of the Horse dating back to ‘After the Goldrush’ and ‘Tonight’s the Night’. Nils, seen in shadow on the image above, will be with Ralph Molina, Billy Talbot and I, making our new CRAZY HORSE music high in the Rockies.

‘Crazy Horse’ history goes back to our original founding singer guitarist - the great Danny Whitten. When Danny died of a drug overdose in 1973, Nils joined us for Tonight’s the Night, playing electric guitar and piano in a wake for Danny and roadie Bruce Berry., who died a similar tragic death. Previously, Nils had replaced Danny during most of the recording of 1970’s ‘After the Goldrush’, singing, playing both piano and acoustic guitar. Poncho Sampedro joined the band in 1975 and stayed with Crazy Horse until 2018, making tons of great music with us.

The Band is excited to make this new album and continue our story. We sincerely hope you enjoy our new music when it is released this year because we know we will enjoy making it. We are very excited to get started in just a few days!

Great photo. That should be the album cover.

I’ll need more info to determine whether or not I’m in for this one but a double album with long jams like psychedelic pill will make this happen

At 3PM today, J Hanlon and I, along with Frank Gironda and the Reprise crew will be celebrating the ‘turning in’ of Crazy Horse’s latest album, COLORADO.

The record is dedicated to Elliot Roberts. Elliot loved this record. He said “It's the songs.”

Since the first Crazy Horse album, ‘Everybody Knows this is Nowhere’, so many things have happened! Life is a gift and I am so happy to be opening it again today to share with everyone. We are very excited.

We will be celebrating old records and relationships as well today. You will be with us in spirit.

Recording began four months ago, and the album was submitted less than one month ago... you might want to seriously rethink your expectations regarding timeliness of this release.

It's been announced on Neil's site that it's coming in October.

I'll add October to the release date in the title (if I can type "10" with my fingers crossed).

from yahoo:

Neil Young has announced a new album with Crazy Horse called COLORADO. It’s set to arrive this October, with the album’s lead single, “Rainbow of Colors,” coming sometime later this month.

News of the upcoming album was announced on the Neil Young Archives website, where it’s described as “10 new songs ranging from around 3 minutes to over 13 minutes.” COLORADO is their first record together since 2012’s Psychedelic Pill.

The album’s lead single, “Rainbow of Colors”, will be released sometime later this month (no specific date has been mentioned yet). It’s described as being a “ragged glory”. If their reunion show last May was anything to go off of, then that term is definitely a good thing, as the band seemed to be in good spirits about playing together again and penning new music.

The good news doesn’t stop there either. COLORADO comes with a documentary about the making of the album. The film is called Mountaintop Sessions and was directed by C.K. Vollick. As previously reported, it’s one of the 15 music films Neil Young is working on at the moment, because apparently legends never sleep. “I don’t think a film about this subject with the openness and intensity we have captured has ever been seen,” the site reads. You can be the judge of that when it’s released in over 100 theaters worldwide the week that COLORADO debuts in October.

Ok! This teaser gives me all I need to know. I’ve never been bored with any NYCH extended workout and this has at least one of those, so I’m in!

Renny had posted last month that the first single was supposed to be "Rainbow Of Colors", but then we got "Milky Way" as the first preview track instead. Now, Neil has decided to reveal "Rainbow Of Colors" to us:
