Amazon.co.uk Review:
Neil Young has recorded many live albums, but none capture his two dominant musical personalities with as much power as 1979's Rust Never Sleeps. The acoustic side opens with "My, My, Hey, Hey (Out of the Blue)", a devastating anthem about the state of rock & roll. Comparing the Sex Pistols' Johnny Rotten to the late Elvis Presley, Young delivers perhaps his most famous line: "It's better to burn out than to fade away." Side two demonstrates the emotional power of Young's hard-rocking quartet, Crazy Horse, with the scathing political songs "Powderfinger", "Welfare Mothers", and the loud reprise of "My, My, Hey, Hey". --Steve Knopper
Rating:
- 'Rock'n'Roll Will Never Die'
'Rust Never Sleeps' is an intriguing,odd and at times excellent album with songs which must rank among Neil Young's finest.The album was recorded on the road during the 'Comes A Time' 1978 tour and it's a half acoustic,half electric affair.The majority of the tracks were either recorded in one take or live in concert but because the audience is omitted during the mix the album isn't 'live' but yearns to be.You will need to purchase the excellent 'Live Rust' to appreciate the actual tour concerts ...

- Is this the greatest Neil Young album ever?
Well, maybe not quite, but it's absolutely right up there in the pantheon. The perfect demonstration of Neil's diverse songwriting, and showcase for his qualities as a musician. (With the help of Crazy Horse.)
First up are the acoustic songs. (Side one of the original LP.) All of the highest quality, with the slight exception of "Ride My Llama". Then again, listeners sometimes need the occasional break from all the excellence. It sits straight after the powerful openers of "My My, Hey ... Read More

- Not bad for an ageing hippy
To place this in context, the year this was released the music press were hailing The Clash as the greatest rock'n'roll band in the world. But quite simply, "Hey Hey My My (Into The Black)" makes the Clash sound like a second-rate garage band. This track alone is worth the price of the CD and the 5 star rating. A massive riff, filthy dirty guitars against a granite wall of rhythm. Kurt Cobain started - and ended - here.
Not bad for an ageing hippy.;-)
Rating:
- The restless Young
You're never quite sure what you're going to get next from Neil Young. Here, he flits from philosophy to reflection, lightness to anger. There's half a side of the acoustic, half a side of the electric. The album's working title might have been 'Patchwork'. Bookended by his stunning comments on rock in revolution, 'Rust Never Sleeps' boasts compelling statements in 'Pocahontas' and 'Powderfinger'. The former draws vivid images of the tearing apart of the dispossessed. The reference to Hollywood near ... Read More

Neil in fine form !The first five tracks are all acoustic with no duff ones among them. "My my,hey hey(out of the blue","Thrasher" and "Pocahontas" would make it if another "Best of big Neil" appears."Thrasher" has the most amazing lyrics,it's a short story set to music,Neil ain't stopping at the fancy hotel with heated pool and bar,he's "Got his own row left to hoe "Good old Neil ,always the mystery man.
