Neil Young Archives: "Huge drop of unreleased tracks!"

The fun just keeps on coming, as we reported here on TW recently, the Neil Young Archives (NYA) will see a "Huge drop of unreleased tracks!".

And what might those 15 tracks be? From the legendary Joel Bernstein tapes, possibly? A comment here on Neil Young Archives: "Huge drop of unreleased tracks!" by Senor Keksalot:

And in other fun Neil Young Archives news, here's a blog from Neil Young’s New Archives Site Brings Fun Back to the Internet | Blog Critics by Karen Barry Schwarz:

Neil Young just brought fun back to the internet which, let’s face it folks, has gotten pretty tired. Sure, it was all very exciting in the beginning, when we were all awed by email and chat rooms and YouTube and Vine and here-let-me-Google-that-for-you and GIFS and memes. So fast! So much! So easy! Facebook and Twitter and Instagram and then, for those of us who didn’t just fall into online porn or gambling or gaming addictions, just – boring af. And if it wasn’t boring af, by the time I discovered it, it was already dead – my kids were already off and onto something else I had never heard of and probably couldn’t figure out how to use if I had (that’s right, folks, SnapChat is hard if you’re over 40, I’m not afraid to admit it.)

But suddenly, a light on the horizon: Neil Young has just unveiled his new Archives site and it’s not only awesome in its scope, complexity, and sheer comprehensiveness, it’s just plain fun. Poking around Young’s new website, the Neil Young Archives, is certainly not the same as attending his live shows, of which I am, full disclosure, a fan, but it does have the power to evoke some of the same feelings you get there: The site is mind-blowing in its mastery of the task at hand, intriguing in its artistry, and yet also completely mystifying in its ability to both thrill and comfort. Just like walking out of one of his shows. Let me explain.
