"This is Greendale" Brochure
Tomorrow's Town - Today (1948)
In anticipation of the premiering of Neil Young's "RETURN TO GREENDALE" film on Hearse Theater | Neil Young Archives, we are going back 17 years to 2003 when the Greendale album and concerts first emerged.
As you will see in our series "Going Back to Greendale", the reaction back in 2003 was literally bewildering for both hard core and casual Neil Young fans.
But history has vindicated the highly experimental Greendale production much to our delight. enjoy!
Back in 2018, we reported on a quite amazing discovery by one of our dear Thrasher's Wheat readers and supporters, Dionys in Germany.
Given the recent highlighting of the Greendale album on the Neil Young Archives (NYA), we thought this would be an excellent time to share a preview of "This is Greendale" brochure. Greendale, Wisconsin is an actual town that was established in 1938 and this brochure was assembled for the town's 10th anniversary.
