This is the first version that opens the album, the acoustic version, titled My, My, Hey, Hey (Out of the Blue). The album ends with an incredibly raw, raucous electric version titled Hey, Hey, My, My (Into the Black). Much different vibe, as you can imagine - especially on the follow-up tour album, "Live Rust." Great stuff!

I may have shared this story before, so apologies if I'm repeating myself. My high school sweetheart and I were together in 1972, but after the break-up and our graduations, we went to separate colleges and I moved out of state, so we lost touch with each other. We both played guitar at the time, and Neil Young brought us together. We both loved his music, and it was about the time his Harvest album came out. The old flame would come over and we would always jam to Neil Young. Fast- forward to 2010, I got a FB message from him, after 36 years, and the rest is history. We got married in 2011! Probably sounds corny, but not to us! All this being said, Neil Young will ALWAYS be special to us! Thanks for this great reaction and stirring up the nostalgia of reminiscing about our love story. ✌💙✌

One of my favorite concerts was a Neil Young concert I saw. He walked out on a completely empty stage, totally empty, not an instrument, an amp, nothing, just Neil in his jeans and flannel shirt. He played a couple on guitar, added a harmonica for a couple, the rolled out a piano and pianist and every couple songs added an instrument. It was the cleanest, most stripped down sound, he played and told stories, and it was amazing.

I like that variety in a concert. I saw Donovan on his "Mellow Yellow" tour in 1967. He did his first set with a jazz combo and sang his jazzier songs like "Sunny Goodge Street". Second set he brought out a rock band and did songs like "Season of the Witch". Third set he came on stage with a string quartet and harpsichord and sang his songs that sounded like they were written centuries ago, like "Guinivere". Last set he played solo and did his folk stuff like "Catch the Wind". And the kicker was his opening act. A 16 year old girl named "Janis Ian" singing her new song "Society's Child". It was definitely among the top concerts I've ever seen.

In Kurt Cobain's suicide note, Cobain used a portion of the lyrics from this song - “It's better to burn out than to fade away”.

He was saddened that he felt that Cobain had misunderstood what Young had meant by that particular lyric

Young lost Bruce Berry Neil's roadie and good friend as well as Danny Whitten his twin flame rhythm guitarist who died a short time apart in 1973. I think Young would be particularly sensitive to Cobain's death but I think that note hit harder because of Young's experience with losing people close to him. These deaths and his breakup with Carrie Snodgrass lead Young to create 4 albums that concentrate on these tragedies in his life. It's known as the ditch trilogy of albums but Zuma is a part of that as well.

If you did 3 Neil Young songs every day, it would take a year to get through them all. That would include songs from Buffalo Springfield, CSNY, his solo work and songs he wrote for others. 🎸😎

It's interesting that you mentioned Lynyrd Skynyrd. Neil Young and Lynyrd Skynyrd were involved in a years long feud. Lynyrd Skynyrd took issue with Young's criticism of the South starting with Young's song "Southern Man" and it was amplified when Young released his song "Alabama." As a result it inspired Lynyrd Skynyrd to respond with their hit song "Sweet Home Alabama." There's a reprise to this song "Into The Black" where they use electric guitars instead of acoustic and rock it up a bit.

The second harmonica solo in this song is the best one ever did in a song. I spent years trying to get it right. Rarely getting the full power of this recording. It did my heart good to see Neil rarely matched it. It's really special.

Cowgirl in the sand is his best. Long song for a reaction though.

The song was influenced by the punk rock zeitgeist of the late 1970s, in particular by Young's collaborations with the American art punk band Devo, and what he viewed as his own growing irrelevance. Great song.

The hippy days where great Niel Young had a whine in his voice that was distinctive to him he was a festival king, stoned and chilling out, the greatest memory's for me were back in the good days, now the festival scene is pop? good reaction to a great man
