    This album gives you the feeling you're actually there and getting to know the performer like no other live album I've ever heard. Plus the music has got to be the most beautiful and honest of his or almost anyone else's career. Truly a young genius at the height of his early years!

    Frankly speaking I was appalled by the total lack of respect the developers showed for their audience with the frankly cruel levels of FALSE difficulty present in levels 10,12,13 and 15, and it would it not surprise me if more showed this level of frank disgust for their consumer. Furthermore I find the presence of multi-coloured sugar which must separate frankly quite problematic.

Even accepting their frankly problematic premise I found this game to be, quite a frankly, a piece of pro sugar propaganda which will likely to the collapse of this nation, nay even this world's youth. Frankly speaking it would not surprise to learn that this game had been funded the scum at Silver Spoon themselves. All in all I would frankly advise you avoid this game so as to not allow this filth to corrupt your computer.… Expand

    It's a marvelously intimate performance, unguarded and open-hearted, unique in its delicate touch: it's Neil Young before the myth crystallized, and listening to it anew, it's easy to fall in love with him all over again.

    It's the kind of recording that makes you wish you were there—but also makes you feel like you are.

    His meandering monologues contrast with the top-notch if uniformly pensive songs.
