Neil Young fans will love this amazing mix of country style songs and epic rock tunes including the long awaited 'Ordinary People', and the fabulously expressive 'Hidden Path'. Neil played some of these songs live on his 2008 tour, including 'Spirit Road', and these are class numbers. Chill out in the car and listen to his distinctive style, as he plays with some of his earliest collaborators including Ben Keith. I was a bit apprehensive buying this album as I am a great fan the superb NY and Crazy Horse Live albums, but this is Neil going back to his roots. Enjoy !

Robyn - the real blonde bombshell - NOT Gwen !
If you like Robyn's singles, you'll love this album. I'm usually into much heavier stuff than this, but it is so 80's that it brings back all of my early Depeche Mode / Yazoo memories. Bearing in mind that Robyn has been belting out these songs since the mid-nineties, I'm surprised that she isn't more successful. Think Gwen Stefani...but with talent. Her sassy lyrics and catchy synth and basslines make this an excellent album. Read her Wiki page, she is an ultra talented artist with her own record label. Top album especially 'Who's that Girl ?' - That reminds me, didn't another great blonde singer have a very different hit with the same title !!!!!
