Neil Young has announced the release of Oceanside Countryside – the latest of his great “lost” albums to be released as part of his Analog Original Series (AOS) on February 14th, 2025. The album was recorded from May to December 1977 on tape. These are the original mixes done at the time of recording.
“This analog original album, recorded in 1977, was unreleased at the time. These songs are the original mixes done at the time of the recordings. I sang the vocals and played the instruments on Oceanside, in Florida at Triad studios and Malibu, at Indigo studio. I sang the vocals and recorded with my great band of friends at Crazy Mama’s in Nashville on Countryside. I hope you enjoy this treasure of an Analog Original recording as much as I do.” said Neil Young in a statement via Neil Youn Archives.
Oceanside Countryside will be available on black vinyl, limited edition clear vinyl via the Greedy Hand Store at NYA and indie retail stores and digitally including in Atmos via the NYA Download Store© and most digital retailers.
