Comment of the Moment: The Archives - Live at the Fillmore East

Lots of discussion on the forthcoming Neil Young Archives: Live at the Fillmore East. Here is a recent comment on the contretemps:

"I don't know if I can tolerate all this disagreement on the streets of Miami...We've begged Neil to release some of the treasures from his vaults, and now that he's finally taking the plunge, everyone starts bitching about the missing acoustic part. And really now, how many off key versions of Cinnamon Girl do you want to hear? This stuff has been bootlegged adnauseum, and I for one am damn sick of 128 kbps mp3 downloads of unmixed hissy 3rd generation soundboard copies! This is for real! Neil has made it clear that he is releasing the acoustic concert from the Riverboat, I'm sure there are some better acoustic versions of his Buffalo Springfield and 1st album material on this(hope it's next in the releases). Remember now Rusties, you've been ripping this material off for years now. Give the man a break! I'll be the first to buy this! Certainly looking forward to Danny singing on key with Neil after the truly dissonant Cinncinati Music Hall vinyl I've owned since the mid 1970's. This morning, I noticed a prerelease copy of this on ebay from a UK seller, so this could just be the beginning of a steady steam of archival material. Come on Folks, Don't Spook the Horse!"
