About this item

A two disc collection containing remastered versions of the "Crazy Horse" and "Loose" albums in their entirety, with a second disc of previously unreleased tracks from the Crazy Horse sessions including Neil Young's "When You Dance You Can Really Love". With their 1971 self-titled debut, Crazy Horse offered a tough, soulful alternative to the mellow, self-satisfied brand of country-rock that had settled over American music at the dawn of the decade. The band's line-up on Crazy Horse (lead singer-guitarist Danny Whitten, bassist Billy Talbot, drummer Ralph Molina, producer-keyboardist Jack Nitzsche, and singer-guitarist Nils Lofgren) never recorded together again. But with Talbot and Molina at the core, Crazy Horse continued to be known as Neil Young's favourite backing band, occasionally making records on their own.
