God Country Home is awful. His voice is terrible. Out of tune. Whiny. Skip. I've made it as far as "over and over" (track 4) and I'm going to have to abandon this. The instrumentals are OK-ish, nothing to write home about, but his voice is absolutely fucking awful. He can't hold a tune any more than I could hold the plums of an enraged bull elephant. This is dismal. People actually like this crap?
Love Neil Young, but I don't love his grunge phase. DNF
The man can't sing, but some of the guitar licks are ok.
Oof.
shit
This fucker wants his music off Spotify and now I have to jump through hoops to try and find his old ass album? No thanks. Just like people who complain about piracy, if you make it difficult for people to find your content, they either won't or they will pirate. I can't even be bothered to pirate this guy. I don't pay for all these music services so you get a 1-star for being a tool.
Couldn't finish it. Never really enjoyed his voice, but this album seems worse than the others. Tracks too long
Neil, from a fellow Canadian…sorry eh, but yeah, no. I almost didn’t make it through this whole album.
Meh
Not on Spotify anymore cos he had a fit about Joe Rogan talking about Covid. Seems like a tear, didn’t listen to it, 1 star, would not return
Could not listen, not on any platform
Snowflake
could not access this album
unable to listen on spotify
Awful
I'm just not enjoying this very much. I like a few Neil Young songs so I was thinking I'd be a fan, but no. Unbelievably boring
twas ok 1.5 stars
1 Is this a joke? This sounds like a joke. It sounds like he’s making fun of himself. Also I can’t tell what it wants to be. Is it country? Is it rock? Folk? Some songs even gave me hair/glam metal vibes. The whole thing overstated its welcome from the start and lasted through to the end. Seeing that it came out in 1990 it’s clear that Neil Young was begging to stay relevant but I have to imagine this is what the death rattle of the 80’s sounds like. Favorites include: Mansion on the Hill I guess
Honestly can't stand Neil Young's voice.
Sounds like a cover band? Mom pick em up i hate it here
Country punk this shit ass
I'm glad that I already liked Neil before I heard this. I like that he is willing to experiment with his sound, but that doesn't mean that I am willing to automatically buy into his b.s. like to wonks at RS are prone to do.
Unable to listen to as Neil Young has removed all albums from Spotify!
Didn’t like this one
Neil has some great songs. Unfortunately none were on this album. “Old Man, ❤️ Of Gold, Harvest “come to mind and they would score way higher than this 💿. This album did not show his true talent.
Dull. 2* - 1* for several 10 minute long repetitive songs.
Immediately no.
Neil Young, you are the force that has ruined country music. I cannot stand this. I do not care. I will not listen to these again.
I absolutely hated this album. I was having a bad time on a rail replacement but atm which perhaps as added to this but whatever what fucking irritating music. Each song was wayy too long as well. Eugg
glorified country album. white line is the only song i enjoyed, most songs are far too long.
First 1 I’m handing out. Neill Youngs vocal inflections are not good and it seems like he’s always just a few Hz off his intended note. The instrumentals are fine but bland in my opinion. The combined package is just straight unappealing with mediocre songwriting, bad vocal performance and boring instrumentals.
Really bad country rock.
Day 145: Neil Young & Crazy Horse - Ragged Glory (1990) It's with dread that I put on this album. I debated with myself whether to review it at all, given how little I appreciate Neil Young's aesthetic, apart from his brief country period. Two minutes into the opener, Country Home, I am already regretting my choice. Young's guitar is as maladroit as ever and his voice has coarsened appreciably with age, losing any charm it might have had for me. Okay. I can see this is a lost cause. Because I can't bear to sit through this album, it wouldn't be fair to rate it.
just no.
whyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy
Über dieses Album kann ich einfach nur abkotzen. Ich habe beim hören versucht, herauszufinden, was ausgerechnet diese Platte so interessant macht, in diese Liste aufgenommen zu werden. Neil Youngs Gesang und die überflüssigen Dur-'Soli' über überflüssige Dur – Akkordfolgen (und er mag seine Dur-Akkordfolgen ganz offenbar) sind nicht einfach nur verzichtbar, sondern schlicht scheiße. Dieses Album klingt dort besser, wo Young nicht singt, und auch da klingt es nicht gut. Ich musste bei den „Kompositionen“ stellenweise an Kinderlieder zum Lernen des ABC oder der Zahlen von 1-10 denken. Neil Young ist krass überschätzt.
