Weld

Product Information

Weld consists of rock and roll songs by Young and Crazy Horse, duplicating seven that had appeared on either Rust Never Sleeps or Live Rust from twelve years earlier.

L'interprétation qu'ils livrent de la set list est marquée par l'utilisation poussée de la distorsion et des feedbacks qui transforme l'ad libitum des fins de morceaux en champs de bataille. The tour coincided with the Gulf War, which had an impact on how the band played the songs, and influenced Young to make changes to the setlists, adding the violence themed songs " Cortez the Killer" and " Powderfinger". The mix on the video is by longtime Young collaborator David Briggs and is a harder-edged, superior mix, according to biographer Jimmy McDonough in his book Shakey. Young's use of experimental guitar feedback was also inspired by Sonic Youth, the noise rock band who opened for parts of his live tours in 1990 and 1991. To calculate the overall star rating and percentage breakdown by star, we don’t use a simple average.

It was initially released as a limited edition three-disc set entitled Arc-Weld, with the Arc portion being a single disc consisting in its entirety of a sound collage of guitar noise and feedback.

However, Arc was not recorded through video camera microphones, as was the case with Muddy Track, but instead was compiled from various professional multi-track recordings made throughout the tour. The album includes Young's "Gulf War" version of Bob Dylan's "Blowin' in the Wind", which has air raid sound effects. Cette inspiration hendrixienne est à son sommet dans la reprise de Blowin' in the Wind de Dylan, que Neil Young joue littéralement sous les bombes. We were watching CNN all the time, watching this shit happen, and then going out to play, singing these songs about conflict. The highlights for me are Love to Burn and Crime in the City, but there is not much here that falls down.The album includes Young's " Gulf War" version of Bob Dylan's "Blowin' in the Wind", which has air raid sound effects.

Is there anything special with this copy, cause I can't find it listed with the "P" at the end of the catalog number? I´ve bought a vinyl copy with the catalog number 7599-26671-1P and an "PR-Copy" sticker at the back side of the cover, printed in Germany by WARNER MUSIC MANUFACTURING EUROPE.

Filthy sounding riffs with solos that send a shiver down your spine and poetry for lyrics , play loud. Can't stop listening to this collection of songs, too many amazing songs to review, its all been said by the other reviewers. Comme l'avait fait Jimi Hendrix lors de la guerre du Vietnam en reprenant un hymne américain apocalyptique et décimé par les décibels des bombardements, Neil Young et le Crazy Horse vont reprendre des anciens morceaux de Young, ainsi que de nouvelles compositions issues de Ragged Glory et en faire un hymne dénonçant la violence de ce qu'il se passe là-bas.

Simply put, if you're ever going to own one album each by the two Neil Youngs (the electric rock'n'roll animal and the gentle acoustic troubador), make damn sure that Weld is the former and Harvest is the latter.

Young placed a video camera on his amplifier during the 1987 tour and recorded the beginnings and endings of various songs, and later edited them down into the film's soundtrack. But when I recently tried to rearrange the CD songs, there were sounds between the songs that did not fit together. It was the sound of the entire band being sucked into this little limiter, being compressed and fuckin' distorted to hell," Young said to Martin, referring to the soundtrack of Muddy Track.
