2damcool.

[corvozoppicando]

@sexypsuedonym He had payola blues!

[crassyfrake]

Geffen asked for a rock album, and thats what he got, yeesh....hahaha

[ProfByronBrainard]

It's Too Damn Pink! Thats all I have to say on this...

[DRATCHFAN]

1:02 FTW: lifting the helicopter over his head in slow motion. This man is a god.

[themusicchap]

2:00 Looks like Mr Geffen isn't very happy here, adjusting his legal papers there.

[heavyboxes]

Nobody has better sideburns than Neil.

[11xzxzxz]

Robert Plant got inspiration and then got sued by all sorts of musicians.

[trevor8930]

Neil: hey I think I'm gonna make a country album.

Record company: NO! make another Rock album.

Neil: Fine, I'll give you Rock&Roll......

enter Shocking Pinks

[signalsyyz]

wonder if Robert Plant got his inspiration for the Honeydrippers after listening to this disc by Neil....hmmm?

[africanspells]

good work

[cicadagodking]

Neil is the greatest musical-morphologist!

[zapple100]

This is my favorite Neil Young album.

[Shoknifeman]

@zapple100 Same here, only one I ever bought

[Shoknifeman]

I never thought Neil Young would be able to pull off a rockabilly album, but , he did, and I LOVE it!!!

[CosmosOfBeauty]

@Shoknifeman Define, "pull off".

[Shoknifeman]

@CosmosOfBeauty Well, it's an expression meaning to complete a task successfully

[signalsyyz]

cool never seen this! ..maybe Neil was trying to catch that Stray Cats wave....around the same time....and i`m not knocking neil....genius actually...

[WoodRatGirl]

I love this, fuck Geffen!

[ratonrock]

ESTO ES EL VERDADERO ROCKNROLL GRACIAS POR COMPARTIR.

[1akarma]

[12inchvertical]

Everybody's Rockin - so the legends are true :)

[DocGeorge4U]

Not just "good"- EXCELLENT!

[mychickenlivers]

[gaurinn29]

Optimus Prime just went between Neils leggs

[WoodRatGirl]

@gaurinn29

LOL thx for laugh :)

[seapro17]

@gaurinn29 That is the funniest freakin comment antone could have come up with for that !!!!!!!! freakin hysterical !!!!!!!!!

[Midnightguy1171]

He sounds somewhat like Jerry Lee Lewis doing this rockabilly effort.

[russ9356]

great rockabilly

[LadyGrinningSoulDiva]

I love Neil and thought this would be complete crap, but I actually kind of like this song. :-o

[mdees100]

hey, Elconquistador69too! give me payola blues!

[darkcowboyhero]

The greatest FUCK YOU to a record company of all time.

[Isismusicnow]

@darkcowboyhero True :) But the funny thing is that it's really good

[duanerichardson1]

@darkcowboyhero

So was the other FUCK YOU to a Record Company "Metal Machine Music" By Lou Reed???

[yakacm]

@duanerichardson1 ha ha, this is a bit more listenable thou, it's funny cuz Bowie brought out Tin Machine, which was a bit fuck up also, but again not as much as Metal Machine. Lou Reed maintains to this day that it's not a joke and the album has been released 3 time now once on Vinyl and twice now on CD, whatever it's still hard fucking work to listen to.

[duanerichardson1]

@yakacm

Then I was wondering, If I have it on CD and play it nightly to put me to sleep....what does that say about me?

[yakacm]

@darkcowboyhero It's gr8, you've gotta love Neil Young, the story goes that the album b4 this Trans which was an electronic influenced record, and the next one Neil gave to Geffen was a country album which they didn't like, so they told he to go back and make a R&R record, and this is the result, when they found out what he was doing they pulled the plug on the sessions that's why the album is so short. It's still Neil thou and he looks like he's having a good time, it's kinda good I guess.

[theLaNDoftheLOOPS]

@darkcowboyhero Right on. Neil was experimenting and having fun. Geffen ended up signing all of these big artists like Elton John all due to the couple who made Geffen Records successful- John Lennon & Yoko Ono Lennon.

[smyeisright]

this also inspired R.E.M  to tell them to fuck off as well

[GoodHardShag]

@darkcowboyhero - Too right !! Strange stuff on the Geffen label.

[celticscot100]

@darkcowboyhero yes, yes it was! all these record company puppets wish they had the balls he had

[MrHanzle]

Neil? I'm so confused man.

[Seasass]

@MrHanzle I think Neil would consider your comment the highest compliment :)

[dukepoope]

I played Everybodys Rockin everywhere I went. I thought it was gonna be the new B52's.

[Pentdad]

I heard this whole album was an inside joke to get back at the record company. They asked for rock and roll so he gave them this greese stuff lol.

[drcanehdian]

@Pentdad followed it up with Trans - Geffin wasn't too impressed - but hey Neil is Neil !

[stewartakaryan]

he loves to make wacky videos...love it

[derekjtbone]

my favorite Neil Young. Hhahahahaha

Wonderin
