From billboard.com:
In the surest sign yet that Neil Young's decades-in-the-works "Archives" boxed set is nearing release, a bonus CD featuring a track from the project will be bundled with copies of his next studio effort, "Chrome Dreams II," due Oct. 16 via Reprise.
According to Young's website, select retail outlets will have the bonus CDs with their own individual track from "Live at the Riverboat," which chronicles a week's worth of concerts from the Toronto shortly after Buffalo Springfield split. "It is one of NY's earliest known live recordings," the site says.
As previously reported, the first volume of "Archives," expected Feb. 18, 2008, will also include the previously released concert sets "Live at the Fillmore East" and "Live at Massey Hall." The remainder will feature material cut with Young's early Canadian band the Squires, recordings from the period during which he lived in Topanga Canyon, Calif., and scores of previously unreleased studio tracks.
Young is expected to tour in October, but for now, his only confirmed dates are next weekend at Farm Aid in New York and his annual Bridge School Benefit, to be held outside San Francisco on Oct. 27-28. |

I'll add this to my list of potential birthday-Xmas gifts. Who says I'm too hard to buy for?
Coincidentally, I'm actually listening to him at this very moment.

Slowly I've turned into a Neil Young fan. On The Beach, I've always liked; also Harvest Moon. Even Re-ac-tor.
I don't like it when he goes messianic ("Freedom"; Bob Dylan you are not, sir) but that's me. Also, what do I know? I just purchased Macca's latest CD and I like it a lot. Sue me!
Also, be sure to check out my latest archives! Long rambling letters adressed to my ex girlfriend, where I don't recognize my pathetic feelings. Luckily, I didn't send any of them! I just became a drunk!
(A classic, from Neil Hamburger):
"Why did God kill John Denver?"
"Because his records weren't selling any more."
