Decade is a triple album compilation by Neil Young, released in 1977, now available

on two compact discs. It contains 35 of Young's songs recorded between 1966 and 1976,

among them five tracks that had been unreleased up to that point.

It peaked at #43 on the Billboard Top Pop Albums chart.



History



Compiled by Young himself, with his hand-written notes about each track, Decade represents

every album from his career and various affiliations through 1977 with the exception of

Four Way Street and Time Fades Away. Of the previously unreleased songs, "Down to the Wire"

features the New Orleans pianist Dr. John with Buffalo Springfield on an item from their

shelved Stampede album; "Love Is a Rose" was a minor hit for Linda Ronstadt in 1975;

"Winterlong" received a cover by Pixies on the Neil Young tribute album from 1989, The

Bridge; and "Campaigner" is a Young song critical of Richard Nixon. The track "Long May

You Run" is a different mix to that found on the album of the same name, featuring the

harmonies of the full Crosby Stills & Nash before David Crosby and Graham Nash left the

recording sessions.



The album has been lauded in many quarters as one of the best examples of a career retrospective

for a rock artist, and as a template for the box set collections that would follow in the 1980s

and beyond. However, in the original article on Young from the first edition of the Rolling Stone

Illustrated History of Rock and Roll and a subsequent article in the 1983 Rolling Stone Record

Guide, critic Dave Marsh used this album to accuse Young of deliberately manufacturing a

self-mythology, arguing that while his highlights could be seen to place him on a level with

other artists from his generation like Bob Dylan or The Beatles, the particulars of his catalogue

did not bear this out. The magazine has since excised the article from subsequent editions of the

Illustrated History book; a transcription of it can be found at the link below (despite his scathing

view of Young's career, Marsh gave the album the highest possible rating).



For many years, Decade was the only Neil Young compilation album available. A 1993 compilation called

Lucky Thirteen was released, but it only covered Young's 1982-1988 output. It was not until 2004 that

Reprise Records released a single-disc retrospective of his best-known tracks, titled Greatest Hits.

Throughout the 1980s and '90s, Young promised fans a follow-up to the original Decade collection,

provisionally titled Decade II; eventually, this idea was scrapped in favor of a much more comprehensive

anthology to be titled Archives, spanning his entire career and ranging in size from a box set to an entire

series of audio and/or video releases. The first release of archival material since Decade and Lucky Thirteen

would appear in 2006, Live at the Fillmore East, a recording from a 1970 concert featuring Crazy Horse

with Danny Whitten. Several other archival live releases followed, and in 2009 the first of several

planned multi-disc box sets, The Archives Vol. 1 1963–1972, was issued.



[edit] Alternate early version

Initially, Decade was to be released in 1976, but was pulled at the last minute by Young. It was

shelved until the following year, where it appeared with two songs removed from the original

tracklist (a live version of "Don't Cry No Tears" recorded in Japan in 1976, and a live version

of "Pushed it Over The End" recorded in 1974). Also removed were the following comments on those

two songs and Time Fades Away, from Young's handwritten liner notes[1]:



“ Time Fades Away. No songs from this album are included here. It was recorded on my biggest tour

ever, 65 shows in 90 days. Money hassles among everyone concerned ruined this tour and record for

me but I released it anyway so you folks could see what could happen if you lose it for a while.

I was becoming more interested in an audio verite approach than satistfying [sic] the public demands

for a repition of Harvest.

Don't Cry No Tears. Initially titled 'I Wonder,' this song was written in 1964. One of my first songs.

This is a live recording from Japan with Crazy Horse.



Pushed It over the End. Recorded live on the road in Chicago, 1974. Thanks to Crosby & Nash's help on

the overdubbed chorus, I was able to complete this work. I wrote it for Patty Hearst and her countless

brothers and sisters. Also, I wrote it for myself and the increasing distance between me and you.
