Odeon Budokan (Vinyl LP)

Originally recorded in 1976 almost a world apart at two overseas venues: Hammersmith Odeon in London and Nippon Budokan Hall In Tokyo, Odeon Budokan includes an electrifying range of songs, from well-known classics to true surprises. Tracks on Side 1 were recorded in London March 31, 1976, and feature Neil Young's solo set on guitar and piano from the first half of the concert. Side 2 tracks were recorded two weeks earlier on March 11, 1976, with Young and Crazy Horse at an early electric apex. 

This is the first official vinyl release of the previously unissued Odeon Budokan  It has only been available on Compact Disc as part of Neil Young's Archives Volume II box set, released in 2020 in the highest-grade audio high fidelity. Young's songs like Cowgirl In the Sand, Cortez the Killer, Lotta Love, Stringman and others are heard at their absolute highest peak.

This album was produced by David Briggs shortly after the 1976 tour. It was put on hold because of other albums that were being made and released at the time.
