New Neil Young releases – pricey

For a long-time Neil Young fan’s birthday, I was looking forward to buying two of the recent releases, Living With War: In The Beginning (the stripped-down version), and the Heart Of Gold DVD.

Then I saw the prices at HMV - £18 and £25 respectively. Gimme a break – for that kind of outlay, I’d want a front row seat at Shakey’s next London gig thrown in free.

Someone in the supply chain is getting greedy - or losing touch with the marketplace. I’ll be buying both releases, but only when they’re sensibly priced.
