Young, Neil & Crazy Horse: Dume (Vinyl 2xLP)

When Neil Young assembles a special edition of his songs, the delight is in the details. Dume is a new limited-edition all analogue vinyl pressing of 16 songs that were originally collected for Neil Young’s Archives Vol. II, released in autumn 2020. Set to be released on February 23rd.

The album features recordings, some of which were part of the historic Zuma album sessions by Neil Young & Crazy Horse, and others previously unreleased, are a detailed look at one of the most exciting periods in Neil’s rock & roll life. Dume captures the live-wire spark of Young's music during those years, and this full-bore attack is somewhat of a turning point for Young and the band.

Neil Young, Crazy Horse, and producer David Briggs were living in the Point Dume area of Malibu and recording at their own direction. The songs Young was writing on the Dume collection came at a steady stream, and after the twisty turns of Tonight’s The Night, the group felt open and free. 

Zuma, named after the beach they lived near, came together in wide-open sessions that had the air of freedom itself. In assembling Dume – initially released as Disc 8 of the Archives Vol. II box set - Young's unfolding plan was to weave songs from the album with unreleased tracks and mixes from that period. Dume is somewhat of a Mad Hatter's take, using the Zuma album as a starting point and expanding that scope into a brand-new entity.

Now it is available with the superior sound it was recorded in, via analogue master tapes and vinyl.
