Description



Limited, Numbered 4-LP box set - Reprise Cat: 519173 1Extremely Low "No. 278" (Gold-embossed) Only 3,000 pressed!
Pressed at Pallas - Diepholz Germany; housed in Gatefold Stoughton paper-wrapped jacketsContains Premium remastered versions of Neil Young's first 4 solo releasesMastered at Bernie Grundman Studios by Chris Bellman from Original Reprise Master Tapes
Original owner – very light use - purchased as a 2nd setEach LP played 2-4 times (max) on Rega TT - Smoke-free home
Set probably deserves M-, yet very conservatively graded - VPI cleaned - nearly as-new condition.
4 LPs: EXC - Incredible sound and pressing with some typical, faint surface noise following lead-in grooves. Zero user/cartridge damage ~ a few audible ticks on overall set, as inherent in the vinyl formulation / Euro-pressing.


4 LP Gatefold Covers - M- pristine, each is gold-embossed with "No 278," as is the set’s box.No dings, abrasions, seam splits, soiling, etc.


Box = EXC- a few raised, linear "wrinkles" spanning 3" on lower right-hand, black area of photo(near artist's boot). Probably an air bubble 'caught' under photo during lamination on the box. It’s a minor flaw on otherwise M- Box. Perhaps a pin prick would release the "air."
Per Michael Fremer - Analog Planet Rating = Music 10/10 ~ Sound 10/10!
"What you’re really interested in hearing about is the sound quality of these reissues. But first a word about the packaging: Warner Brothers has gone to the trouble and expense of using deluxe paper over cardboard jackets that are authentic to the originals, though there are barcodes, new catalog numbers and updated mastering credits— all tastefully and respectfully done. Pick up the new Harvest and you’ll be hard-pressed to tell it from the original, so perfectly does the new, thick outer paper stock match the original.
What’s very different about these reissues though, is the sound: I have multiple originals of all of them, including both the original Haeco-CSG version of the debut album and the re-do (obviously, though Warner Brothers and Young went with the original cover, the second mix was used) and I have to tell you, these reissues, mastered by Chris Bellman at Bernie Grundman and pressed at Pallas in Germany sound far superior to the originals."

NOTE: no posters in this set (as would be the case if titles are purchased individually under various catalog #s)
Carefully shipped in protective packaging - to Continental 48 U.S. States only
