12 years ago Liv Carter Comments Off on New Neil Young & Crazy Horse Album, ‘Americana,’ Due Out June 5

Neil Young & Crazy Horse will release a new album on June 5, 2012. Titled, Americana, the disc will contain classic American folk songs including ‘This Land Is Your Land,’ ‘Gallows Pole,’ ‘Tom Dooley’ and ‘Clementine.’

The press release introduced the album as such:

“What ties these songs together is the fact that while they may represent an America that may no longer exist. The emotions and scenarios behind these songs still resonate with what’s going on in the country today with equal, if not greater impact nearly 200 years later. The lyrics reflect the same concerns and are still remarkably meaningful to a society going through economic and cultural upheaval, especially during an election year. They are just as poignant and powerful today as the day they were written.”

Produced by Neil Young and John Hanlon with Mark Humphreys, Americana will be the first Crazy Horse release since 2003.

1. ‘Oh Susannah’
