Neil Young, The Canadian music Hall of Famer and former member of Buffalo Springfield and Crosby, Stills, and Nash has released his latest politically charged CD entitled Living With War. His second release in under a year.
Be warned that this CD is unabashedly a protest album by this Canadian born American.
Whether you're a fan of his politics or not, I think we have to acknowledge that lyrically this is an intelligent, and well thought out CD.
I like it for the fact that it is bound to elicit a response from all who listen. Without regard for positive or negative it will certainly keep the debate open and alive. Which is exactly why it's a good release.
I also like it for the song that closes it out. A 100 voice choir rendition of America the Beautiful.
Overall Living With War is Neil Young as we have come to know him over the course of the last 40 years. Outspoken and direct. If you don't mind that style you will enjoy this CD.
The standout tunes on Living With War include the title track Living With War [track 2], The Restless Consumer [track 3], and Lookin' for a Leader [track 8]. My Bonus Pick, and the one that got Sore [...as in "Stuck On REpeat"] is track 5, America the Beautiful. Very nice!
