A few good-un's (Clementine, High Flyin' Bird) and a few WTF's.

It's such an odd playlist for Neil for a Crazy Horse set but it's Neil and Crazy Horse so I'm always willing to give it a listen.
Incidentally, the Horse is playing a show (shows?) at Red Rocks this summer with Alabama Shakes opening. What I wouldn't give to be at that show.

Crazy Horse at Red Rocks? That would be a fun night! I will look forward to giving this a listen.

Listening now...I just wanna hear them do Cortez the Killer!

After the second listen with good earphones and higher quality files, it was more enjoyable. Fun at times, even! He and Crazy Horse somehow make some of the songs work, thanks to the arrangements and heaviness. A few didn't work, but the others make up for it.
