Hey Youngsters. It's been a minute. Two things: First: Here's a quick and fun interview with our friend Astrid Young who's got an amazing new project in the works with some of the best in the business. Astrid is one of the best in the game, and just an all around genuinely great person. Check it out and show your support here: https://igg.me/at/ONAGR/x#/ Second: We miss you like crazy, but all good things must come to an end. We're planning on doing 5 or 6 more episodes over the summer, and then...

We were gonna record this episode in person but New England weather pushed us into zoom once again, so apologies for the less than stellar audio quality. We all really loved Homegrown. We talk about it. We also spend a lot of the episode listening to Mike gush over The Banshees of Inshirin. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

It's been a long minute, Youngsters, but we're back. And we're talkin' Colorado! We talk about the planet. We talk about Nils. Some new bits get created. Some old one's get archived. It's an episode.

Hey Daryl! You're on the podcast! Starting this weekend (9/30/22) Paradox is officially available on the Neil Young Archives! And who better to spread the news than our old friend Adam CK Vollick and our new friend, the one and only Daryl Hannah! Huge, huge thanks to both Daryl and Adam for joining us on this episode. We were psyched to revisit Paradox and even more excited to talk about it with both of you. The movie is exactly what the title says it is: somehow a deep, beautiful story with mul...

We're trying our best to not have this turn into a once-a-month podcast, I promise. So here we are a month later talking about Tuscaloosa! We get into the album. The song versions on it. Neil's funny and sometimes not funny intro banter. Danny Whitten gets brought up. We read some reviews. At some point "Angry Neil" makes an appearance and really lets us have it. He seems like he'll be around a while. We've missed you, Youngsters! Long May You Young is a proud member of the Pantheon Podcast Netw...

How's the business, Youngsters? It's been a minute! A few of them actually. But we're finally back and booming with some quality LMYY content - talking about ourselves and occasionally sprinkling in some Neil talk. And the Neil talk I speak of comes from two great live albums - Songs For Judy and Tonights The Night Live at the Roxy. We get into our favorite tracks. Talk a little history. Get sidetracked. It's pretty much exactly what it's always been. Mike gets mad at Russ for putting ketchup on...

You better believe Mike put on his best cowboy outfit for this one, while Luke and Russ chimed in from their twin outhouses. That's right. It's time to talk about Paradox, Youngsters. Daryl's behind the camera and Neil and the POTR boys are out front. We talk about our highlights from the movie. We get gushy over Lukas covering his dad's tune. Luke wishes he were there for that cowgirl jam. Mike loves a good pipe organ. Russ enjoys a particular river scene. Who am I kidding? We all do. Patreon.c...

We're podcasters, by the way... Mike's back. Our chemistry is immediate and unflinching as we trudge into The Visitor.

The jury is in: This is one hell of an album. Almost every review we found, and everyone we asked seems to have the same feeling - this is raw Neil doing what he does best and doing the hell out of it. Recorded in 76 but not released until 2017, this stripped down collection is some of the finest Neil we've heard. We geek out for quite a while on it. Mike unfortunately had a family situation and had to bail last minute, but thanks to our top tier Patrons John Locke and Craig Bitch - we had a hel...
Apr 28, 2022•1 hr 48 min•Ep. 74
All the boys agree, this is a good album. it's Neil doing what he does best, and finding exactly the best people for the job to accompany and produce a solid record. It's Peace Trail. We talk about it's origins. The pipeline protests. We semi-worship Keltner a bit. We read some mixed Facebook reviews. A robot orgy / Jacket family reunion is discussed. Russ and Mike at some point have a Malkavich-off. We get on the Peace Trail and ride. Thank your Alexa later. Pantheonpodcasts.com for more incred...

It's good to be back, baby. We're talking Earth today, but in true LMYY style - we're also talking Will Smith, Taylor Hawkins, WWIII and if Crazy Horse were muppets. We do eventually get into the album. We've got mixed feelings, but overall we leave with on a positive note! Pantheonpodcasts.com for a ton of other great music themed shows. And super huge thanks to the patreon family at Patreon.com/longmayyouyoung - you folks keep us going. Longmayyouyoungpodcast.com This episode was sponsored by ...

A Neil Young podcast walks into a pub and talks about Thin Lizzy... It's Saint Patrick's Day! So we're taking a quick break from Neil's catalogue and diving into some good old Irish rock n' roll - Thin Lizzy's first self titled album. You're probably asking yourself if a Neil Young podcast can just decide to do an episode about something not really Neil related at all and the answer is we can do whatever we want. Mike's out for this one, so our good pal Will Martin is taking his place! We talk a...

It's mind-blowing to me (Luke) how many people have missed this album, including myself. I don't know if it's because of the album title, or if it's because it's one of his later records, but after spending close to a month listening, it's nothing but a tragedy that I, and so many others, slept on this one. The Monsanto Years rules. We talk about the album title. We get into Promise of the Real. Tim Cackett (Town Meeting) hops on towards the end and chimes in for a few songs. Honestly I don't kn...
Feb 23, 2022•2 hr 8 min•Ep. 70
Very excited for today's episode because we got to talk to our old pal Derek Webb! Derek has been a fixture in the Nashville music scene for over two decades and according to Luke - he's a lot like Neil. We get into his favorite Neil albums, the songwriting process, his experience with record labels and a bunch more. Honestly, it's one of those rare episodes where we don't go completely off the rails. It's kinda nice. Also, we fired Mike for this episode and hired our favorite substitute podcast...

Joel's still with us as we wrap up our thoughts on Storytone. We go song by song and compare versions. Luke almost makes Mike quit with his careless commentary on blues music. We find out Neil might be Joel's dad. Honestly, the more I think about it the more I'm sure Neil is definitely Joel's dad. Even if it's not true, I'm happy to just start that rumor. Joel is Neil's son. You heard it here first, Youngsters. Longmayyouyoungpodcast.com for merch and other crap. Pantheonpodcasts.com for all the...

I'm sure this will saturate our episodes for the weeks and probably months to come, but we felt like we had to do at least one episode specifically about what's going on right now. We give our opinions on Rogan, spotify and the whole situation here. Do we cover everything? No. But it's a start. And there's more to be said. Ironic that the next album we'll be covering is The Monsanto Years, no? Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Joel Desmarais-Racine (Don't Be Denied podcast, Neil Young Canadianposting) joins the boys all the way from Canada for this mammoth two-parter where we try and tackle every inch of Storytone! We discuss the making of the recordings. We get into our favorites and least favorites of the 3 versions Neil released. Joel brings up Neil's relationship with Pegi vs. Daryl. Luke and Russ feel a bit like Disney Princess's. Joel can't believe we've never seen Predator 2. Mike gets a little annoyed at Luke ...

We're back, baby! Delayed a week or two because Luke and Russ caught a little bit a 'rona, but now we're back and we're jumping right into A Letter Home! Mixed feelings right off the bat with this one. Mike comes in hot (he's back on the scotch...) and echoes our friend Joel's sentiment that it feel a bit gimmicky. Luke disagrees. Russ is somewhere in the middle. The episode is going along smoothly enough until Al gets brought up, then all hell breaks loose. You'll see what we mean. Pantheonpodc...

Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays, Youngsters! It's our Christmas spectacular! Santa shows up. The White Russians keep flowing. We try and talk about Ben Keith's Christmas At The Ranch but it's mostly just a beautiful chaotic mess of an episode. This episode gets ridiculous - even more than usual if you can believe that - but we do want to let everyone who's been listening this year know how much we love and appreciate you. You feel like family to us. We're so happy to call you friends and fell...

Even though it wasn't released until 2013, we're heading back to the early 70's again with Live at the Cellar Door! An absolutely fantastic album, we get into why it wasn't included in the archives. We talk about our favorite tunes, as well as the placement of this release. Luke issues a formal apology to Ringo. Mike says he won't record any more episodes unless we get him a 9 foot piano. Luke thinks Neil sounds adorable. Russ doesn't let it bring him down. It's a good one. Patreon.com/longmayyo...
Dec 01, 2021•1 hr 23 min•Ep. 65
The Horse is back for a second time in 2012 to deliver one of - in most of our opinions - the finest albums they've ever made. It's Psychedelic Pill! Our pal John Craigie joins us once again and we dive into each song. We fawn over Ramada Inn. Mike threatens physical violence against anyone who doesn't like the song. We find out John is a bit of a whistle snob. Russ has an interesting take on She's Always Dancing. Luke can't get enough of Driftin' Back. It's a great album to talk about. We had f...

Luke and Mike got to zoom it up with the uber-talented Adam CK Vollick! Adam is an incredible artist who worked with Neil on Le Noise, Paradox, Mountain Top and so much more.

Neil gives us his take on some American classics on his 31st studio album, Americana! And he's back with the horse! The boys lament over the "Lost" episode. We get into the origins of the songs. Luke suggests that maybe Neil is more than a time traveling vampire. Mike laments the amount "Tom Dula's" there are. The Soprano's gets brought up and basically takes over most of the rest of our recording. It's an okay episode, I guess. It's not even close to as good as the Lost episode. I really wish y...

Two albums for the price of one today, Youngsters. And oh man, do we got two ABSOLUTE GEMS. We dip into Dreamin' Man and compare it to Harvest Moon. Luke prefers it. Russ thinks it lacks BK, but also loves it. Mike only wants to listen to Such A Woman. We move onto A Treasure and zoom almost immediately kicks Luke off and stops the recording. Russ geeks out over Long Grain. I mean, really geeks himself out. We talk about the Harvesters. We talk about this tour. It's a good episode. Trust me. Or ...

Neil joins forces with the uber talented producer Daniel Lanois to create his 30th studio album, Le Noise! And we join forces to talk about it! We go over the album and the unique way they went about making it. Luke very much loves Love and War. Russ reflects on this being the Neil's first project after the passing of Ben Keith and LA Johnson. Mike very much prefers this version of hitchhiker. Luke recounts stories from Nail's bachelor party. We plug the patreon too much. Pantheonpodcasts.com fo...

Spoiler alert: There is almost zero Neil Young talk in this episode. Also - THIS ONE IS RIDICULOUS. If this is your first time tuning in - sorry. Mike couldn't make it this week, but Russ and Luke were near the equipment anyway so they thought they'd record a little something to show you they didn't forget about you and to let you know this is the end of their lackadaisical summer. Listen. We know we've been scarce. But that ends in October! Oh and we have a Patreon now! Patreon.com/longmayyouyo...

It's Neil's 29th studio album and boy is it a fun one to talk about! The boys have mixed feelings about it. We get into the Lincvolt and the documentary behind it. Russ talks about Ben Keith and this being his last album with Neil. Luke loves Just Singing A Song. We toss around the idea of a Patreon page (Then while Luke is editing the episode, he gets drunk and makes one - patreon.com/longmayyouyoung). We interview Markus Rei, who worked with Neil on the Lincvolt project. It's a good time. Spec...

I hate to get all Staind folks but it's been a while, hasn't it? Well, fear not! The boys are back talking about the first two installments of the ever growing archives! But in true LMYY style, we banter a bit before hand. Not gonna lie there's like 13 minutes of strait banter before Neil gets mentioned at all. What do you want? We had to catch up. We missed each other! Anyway once we get into the meat, we compare the two records. We talk about the highs and lows of each. Russ is sick. Luke like...
