Neil Young | Official Release Series Volume 6

Neil Young continues his Official Release Series (ORS) with the next installment of four classic titles from the 1990s. ORS Vol 6: Discs 26, 27, 28 & 29 collects HARVEST MOON, UNPLUGGED, SLEEPS WITH ANGELS and MIRROR BALL in the ongoing reissue series and is set for release on October 24 via Reprise Records. All of them are late-career highlights in Neil Young’s discography. Not least Sleeps With Angels, which has become something of a cult classic in recent years. Unplugged, Sleeps With Angels and Mirror Ball have also been in particularly high demand on vinyl since the format experienced a major resurgence. This marks the first time since their original release that these three albums are being made available on vinyl. Only Harvest Moon has been fortunate enough to see a vinyl release since its original release.

Each disc in the limited edition, numbered box sets will contain 4 albums with the original, historically accurate artwork. Mirror Ball is an analog recording and the album has been remastered from the original analog masters by John Hanlon and Chris Bellman at Bernie Grundman Mastering. Additionally, four of the tracks have been remixed by John Hanlon and Chris Bellman at Bernie Grundman Mastering. (‘The Ocean’, ‘Big Green Country’, ‘Truth Be Known’, ‘Throw Your Hatred Down’).

The OFFICIAL RELEASE SERIES VOLUME 6 - DISCS 26, 27, 28 &; 29 (ORS Vol 6) captures a large visceral part of the era, when Young was continuing his exploration of music with an unrelenting edge, in ways that he hadn’t really done before. These four releases took him towards a new century, and anticipated some of the musical places he would soon explore. The songs also capture some of the massive changes that the 2000s would bring, and ways that music would take on challenges that are still very much being met.
