"In blind listening tests (adjusting the VTA for the difference in thickness), an audiophile focus group, correctly identified from and preferred the 200gram QUIEX SV-P pressing to a 180gram normal profile QUIEX SV pressing. The differences, in terms of increased clarity of instruments, harmonic integrity, and spatial detail are easy to hear even with untrained ears. Much like the difference in moving to QUIEX SV, the new heavier QUIEX SV-P pressings were unanimously preferred."

Bakgrunnsinfo og kommentar fra Neil Young:

From the Neil Young performance series archives, the acclaimed 1971 solo acoustic Massey Hall performance. The LP mastering and cutting was done using the original 1/2" analog master tapes (at Bernie Grundman Mastering) with plating and pressing on Classic's proprietary 200g QUIEX Super Vinyl Profile at RTI.

"This is the album that should have come out between After the Gold Rush and Harvest. David Briggs, my producer, was adamant that this should be the record, but I was very excited about the takes we got on Harvest and wanted Harvest out. David disagreed. As I listen to this today, I can see why."- Neil Young, 2007

Omtale (Michael Fremer, Analog Planet):

"Look, if your system is up to the task, this double LP set will take you back in time and space to the evening's concert and put you near the front of the stage. The image of Young's voice and both the guitar and piano are superbly tactile, transparent and three-dimensional. The balance between direct and reflected sound is perfect

If you don't sit transfixed through all four perfectly pressed, absolutely quiet sides, you're clearly not a Young fan. If you're like me though, you'll find this set transportive to a time when audiences sat with rapt attention listening to soft spoken, sensitive artists who held the stage as few manage to do today, with just an acoustic guitar or a piano or in this case both. When Young leaves the stage after “See the Sky About to Rain” the audience goes berserk. Young returns for “Down by the River,” and “Dance Dance Dance,” finishing up with “I Am A Child.”

Classic's deluxe packaging, the 200gram Quiex SV-P flat profile pressing and Chris Bellman's astonishingly transparent cut of a magnificent piece of engineering and mixing by Young's longtime producing and engineering cohort David Briggs adds up to a musical and sonic treat Young fans would be foolish to pass up. Surely this won't be in-print forever, so get it while you can! Live recordings don't get much better than this."
