Talkin to the Trees

Neil Young

Stripped-back acoustic meditations on legacy and the natural world. Bare-bones arrangements where the silence between notes carries as much weight as the lyrics.

Find on Amazon

It sounds like Neil finally found the peace he was looking for in the middle of a forest.

A serene and weathered meditation on aging and the enduring solace of the natural world.

Moments Worth Waiting For
The audible intake of breath and the metallic click of a harmonica rack before the solo on the title track.
The way the piano notes on Dark Mirage seem to hang in the air, decaying naturally into the room noise.
A rare, cracked vocal harmony during the final chorus of Thankful that feels like a genuine moment of grace.
