[TUSCALOOSA - Neil Young + Stray Gators](/#/album?id=A_106)

released 6-7-2019

When the tour got to Alabama, I was happy to see all the people there. We were playing in a University Field House I think I recall. The band was pretty tuned in because we were doing lots of shows in a row. After a while, the groove sets in and you really don’t know how good it is when you are in it. It turned out to be a great night in Tuscaloosa.

Stray Gators, anchored by Tim Drummond and Kenny Buttrey, were unbelievable to play with!

They are all gone now but for me. So this is a special album personally, one I wish you had heard a long time ago as a ‘Harvest Greatest Hits’ live album or something. . . .but that was not to be.

I was doing a new album of songs from the tour as a record itself. I wanted to try that at the time.

So here it is at long last. The vinyl from the original analog masters is outstanding, as is the high resolution file.

I really do hope you folks out there get a glimpse of what those days were like. It’s all there for you. . . . in Tuscaloosa.
