Homegrown

Long unreleased studio album recorded between June 1974 and January 1975 (after the release of On the Beach and before the sessions for Zuma). 

Hughesy's assessment: According to legend, Tonight's The Night got the nod ahead of this long-lost gem as the follow-up to my favourite Neil album.One can only speculate how things would have panned out otherwise. As it is, everything other than Florida seems bound for a very rapid ascent into the Top 5000 Played playlist here in the Little House of Concrete.  Thoroughly worth the forty-five year wait, and enough to have the lips wettened while we await the appearance of Archives Volume 2.. Outstanding.
