Album Notes Neil Young & Crazy Horse: Neil Young (vocals, acoustic & electric guitars); Frank Sampedro (guitar); Billy Talbot (bass); Ralph Molina (drums).Additional personnel: Nicolette Larson (vocals); Joe Osborne, Carl Himmel.Producers: Neil Young & Crazy Horse, Tim Mulligan, David Briggs. As far as pure songcraft goes, it hard to beat this 1979 offering from Young & Crazy Horse. By the end of the '90s, Young, Talbot, Molina and Sampredo had refined their crushing sonic assault to the extent that they could bludgeon the listener with Wagnerian riffs and rhythms (the entropy hymn "Hey Hey, My My") or provide just enough grit to keep Young's far-out lyrics from ascending into the stratosphere ("Ride My Llama.") Songwise, RUST is a schizophrenic album. Young moves from the brilliant surrealist imagery of "Pocahontas," with it's evocation of "Marlon Brando, Pocahontas and me," to the sharp narrative perspective of the equally transcendent "Powderfinger" and the good-humored social commentary of "Welfare Mothers."

Reviews Review created: 23/11/06 by: 2 of 2 people found this review helpful. This is an exceelent album showcasing the varied talents of Neil Younf as a rocking live act and mellow studio performer with a penchant for great thought provoking songs. Very powerful indeed. I bought this album for the 2 very different versions of Hey Hey My My one live and one in the studio and the rest of the album, it has to be said is equally as good if not better. There are two sets of songs - one set in the studio and the other set ie: the latter set, were recorded live. Only disappointment being at around 35 mins it is way too short.
