A beautiful and downbeat set of Neil songs, that formed the “lost” album The Old Homestead, which was perhaps intended for release in 1974.
Homegrown from this same period also didn’t see the light of day in its full form until much later.
A few of these songs appeared on Zuma, but most didn’t.
From the Archives II HDCD box set.
