The DVD-Audio of Harvest does sound incredible, even though it isn't all
that great of an album. Hasn't dated as well as some of Neil's other albums.
I only bought it because of a few songs and the DVD-Audio aspect.
Neil Young-Greendale. Try somewhere before you buy. I found it to be an
overlong drag. The DVD also tends to drag on forever. A well intention dud,
in my opinion.
