Neil Young's protest album heads to Internet first

Neil Young's protest album heads to Internet first

THIS is how it should be done:

The album will first become commercially available as a digital download beginning May 2, "and we plan to get it into retail stores as soon after that as we can get them manufactured," Bentley said.

He said the label anticipates getting the album into retail outlets between May 5 and May 15. "Neil wants this album out there as soon as possible," Bentley added.


The John Lennon paradigm of hit single as newspaper. And wasn't "Ohio" on the radio about a month after Kent State?

Young's new set comes just seven months after the release of his last album, "Prairie Wind"...

No marketing plan here... just music. IMMEDIATE. Less than a month from recording to our ears.
