Fun Facts
The original version of "Neil Young", released in 1968, was mastered with a process known as Haeco-CSG, intended to make a Stereo record compatible with Mono systems. Neil discusses this on the archives. Bottom line: It was a disaster, ruining the Stereo play in the eyes of NY. He insisted the record be re-done without Haeco-CSG. He saw this as an opportunity to re-mix four songs: "Here We Are In The Years", "I've Been Waiting For You", "What Did You Do To My Life?" and "If I Could Have Her Tonight". It is believed that the alternate mixes of "I've been Waiting For You" and "What Did You Do To My Life?" presented here are the original mixes prior to their being spoiled by the Haeco-CSG process. The original mix of "Here We Are In The Years" is lost, but Neil recently re-created it and issued it as a BD-Live.

The master of "Sugar Mountain" presented here was, strictly speaking, only first released on "Sugar Mountain - Live at Canterbury House" since prior releases of this take (Single b-sides and "Decade") were edited to remove the introduction.

"If I Could Have Her Tonight", released on Neil's first Solo LP, was omitted from this disk but it shows up in Acoustic form on the NYAPS00: Live at the Canterbury House CD, as a freebie in the stash box.
