Best Neil Young Album?


This may belong on one of the Neil Young's fan web sites but with the critical success of Greendale (his best effort in the last 20 years IMO) what is your favorite Neil Young album? Mine is probably Hawks and Doves with Zuma a close second.

Marco, I won't hold your post against you. Otherwise it's nice to know I'm not the only Neil Young fan here. It's very hard for me to pick a favorite but I'd have to go with either Harvest or Everybody Knows This Is Nowhere. My favorite song is "Cortez The Killer" on the Zuma album. Although he's a goofball in many ways like other musical geniuses Neil Young is a a great family man and I admire that a lot. "Shakey" is a must read. What other artists have to say about him sums up my feelings.
One line in Greendale makes it worth the price of admission. "I won't retire but I might retread".....
My sister has been trying to send me a video clip of Neil Young singing Down By The River backed up with Crosby, Stills and Nash on Hullabaloo, or some such show. It's absolutely the most wonderful example of those guys at their best. It is priceless. Okay, here's the deal. It's a bitch to do. Please, one very determined guy contact me. I will provide you with a link to retrieve it. I can tell you how to be able to view it but I'm unable to determine where the file resides so sharing it is impossible. It auto opens in WMP and a search says it's on the desktop but it's not. Whoever contacts me will be rewarded if you are a Neil Young fan. You do need to be a pc techie and I'd like you to share this with Neil Young fans if you can figure it out. I'm too busy to provide a link and instructions to everyone that might contact me so I'm asking one person to carry the torch. You will be amazed. It's priceless.
