Album Review: Neil Young with Crazy Horse - Early Daze

Recorded in 1969 and shelved for 55 years, the album now known as Early Daze captures the sound of Crazy Horse before Neil Young completely took over the band formerly known as the Rockets.

A collection of 10 mostly unreleased songs, mixes or versions - a couple have showed up in Young’s Archives series - Early Daze features the lineup of Young and Danny Whitten on guitars, keyboardist Jack Nitzsche and the forever rhythm section of drummer Ralph Molina and bassist Billy Talbot. Studio talk - “What’s the name of this, Neil?” before “Down by the River” with an alternate vocal track - is included to give the impression of live recording, but these are post-production tracks.

Whitten’s “Look at all the Things” and his co-write and vocals with Young on “Come on Baby, Let’s Go Downtown” suggest Crazy Horse might’ve remained a democracy had Whitten, the inspiration behind “The Needle and the Damage Done,” lived. “Winterlong” finds Young still toiling in the shadow of Buffalo Springfield. And “Helpless” and “Wonderin’” - this is ’69, remember - confirm how little thought Young put in to CSNY and the Shocking Pinks, though “Wonderin’” deserved better than what it got and this may be the definitive take.

“Birds,” presented in a full-band iteration, was also hanging around for a while, it turns out. And “Cinnamon Girl,” with a different outro, joins the aforementioned “River” to preview Everybody Knows this is Nowhere.

Early Daze thus stands as the rare collection of long-unreleased music that succeeds both as a curiosity and as a high-quality standalone LP.
