Editorial Review:

Amazon.com:
The first stop for anybody new to Neil Young's music, this 34-song set (originally released in 1977) traces his growth from Buffalo Springfield and Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young to Crazy Horse to his Harvest band, the Stray Gators. The album defined Young to rock radio the way Hot Rocks determined which Rolling Stones songs would become classics, but this is more than a quickie greatest-hits collection. Rarities and hits--Springfield's "Mr. Soul," CSNY's "Ohio," and Young's "Cinnamon Girl," "Heart of Gold," and the closing "Long May You Run"--develop in thematic and chronological patterns. --Steve Knopper

- Good, balanced collection
I bought this 2 CD-set for Neil's Greatest Hits and some that maybe should have been. Not at all disappointed with "Helpless, "Heart Of Gold", "Ohio", and the rest of the more familiar ones. As an interested but not deep fan, the Buffalo Springfield stuff and several other selections might take some time.
My initial take on my first NY collection is that he didn't go into the studio to "write a hit". He had the words and music which wee going to connect with a very large number of fans, anyway. ... Read More

- Excellent Overview of Neil's Work
I really enjoy this CD. It has great cuts from Neil with CSNY, Neil as a solo and duet artist, and Neil with Crazy Horse, so it's excellent in that respect. I've been a casual Neil young fan and I have a whole new respect for him after buying this album. I think it's a great purchase and I would highly recommend it.

- The Best and the Worst
How can an album as important as this one be allowed to remain in it's current state of "not yet remastered" disrepair? Forcrisake, every other chunk of trite music out there from the 70's and 80's has been remastered. Either Neil is going to launch the mother of all box sets, or someone has just gotten very lazy.

- The worst fidelity in my collection of 2,000+ CDs
The music would be a fine introduction to early Neil Young, but the fidelity sounds like an old car radio playing through your friend Larry's coat. Every track that is available elsewhere sounds better elsewhere. (Compare "Like a Hurricane" on this album to the one on "American Stars n Bars," which is HDCD in standard release.) If you simply must have some of the oddball cuts it doesn't look like you have much choice. Actually, the smart thing to do would be to wait until Young's back catalogue gets the ... Read More

- Ten golden years
Spanning Neil Young's career form 1966 to 1976 (and leaving no stone unturned), Decade is an epic collection of songs, a glorious encapsulation of one of the greatest discographies ever recorded. As an introduction to the wonderful world of Neil, it can't be beat; every one of the eclectic artist's passions is on full display here, from the apocalyptic electric guitar workouts of "Down By The River" and "Cowgirl In The Sand" to the soul-shaking folk introspection of "Old Man" and "Heart Of Gold." As such, ... Read More
