Neil Young has shared new details about his upcoming live album Roxy – Tonight’s the Night Live, a much-anticipated recording from a series of performances at the Roxy Theatre in Los Angeles between September 20-22, 1973. Young performed with his band the Santa Monica Flyers, delivering Young’s album Tonight’s The Night “top to bottom, without the added songs, two sets a night, for a few days,” according to Rolling Stone.

Still waiting for Yellow Ledbetter to open a show.....
Neil’s timeline always blows my mind. This was recorded 2 years before the album was released. But was taped about a month after they finished the studio album. Which was recorded in 2 days? Tops?
It's a RSD "first" release, meaning it will also come out at a later date. But it's friggin' impossible to tell which of Neil's releases will stay in print and which will not (although the archive releases tend to stick around a bit longer).
The list officially drops Tuesday, but here's this year's supppsed RSD exclusives:

Yeah I'm way more into this list than the last few years. I feel like I usually buy some 7'' and 12'' singles and that's it. When the official list comes out on Tuesday, be sure to pay attention to what's a "RSD Exculsive" and what a "RSD First" release, as this list doesn't seem to reflect that (that Neil release has been announced elsewhere as being RSD-first, for example). If it's RSD-first, it'll be available at online retailers and all over, so no need to wait in line for it.
Look, I'm gonna need those Waits records. And they won't last in NYC. If any of you jokers can guarantee me that you can grab all three for me, let's talk.
