I would be on-board with this. Start with Disc 1 of Archives Vol. 1, then Buffalo Springfield before getting into his solo stuff? Sprinkle in the live archive albums as you go through? We might get through the '70s by May.
I was thinking start with the first solo album (too much non-Neil BS material for my taste, plus all the best songs reappear on his own albums anyway), but I could be swayed.

Archives Vol. 1 Disc 2 probably has the most essential BS songs.

Landing on Water has some great songs, particularly Hippie Dream.
I’m definitely down/up for a catalogue review.

Nice list, ST. I would make a list like that of my own, but I can just look at the spines of my CD's and get the same information

I like you.
I would still have to make a mix of the unreleased songs on the other Archives Vol. 1 discs. And I didn't include any CSNY, either. Then there are a couple of random singles as well.
