His second solo album was the start of a great run of albums by Neil Young. He is at his best whenever he plays with Crazy Horse, and he knows how to make heavy songs.

Without the help of Crazy Horse, this album consists mainly of Neil Young and a guitar or a piano. Vocally, this might be his strongest album, but there is not enough variation for me to place this above Everybody Knows This Is Nowhere.

Nice chart! I don't know if you tried Gentle Giant, but based on your tastes, I think you might like it (Three Friends, Free Hand, Octopus, Gentle Giant). Also, have you heard "Time And A Word" from Yes? This album is crazy good!
