说明:
(2020) Scott the Hoople - NEIL (Vol. 1)
Review:
Neil (Vol.1), the tribute to the Canadian Loner has been recorded by Scott McCaughey with the pseudonym of Scott The Hoople. The album has been mixed by Kurt Bloch from Fastbacks and Mike McCready plays the guitar in 7 songs, he recorded his parts at the Hockeytalker Studios in Seattle. Scott McCaughey was in many bands as Young Fresh Fellows, The Minus 5, Baseball Project, The Filthy Friends and has been part of R.E.M. from 1994 to 2011, the year the Athens band broke up. In 2017, Scott had a stroke and lost the ability to talk, sing and play instruments. As part of his rehabilitation he decided to try to remember the music he loved most during the last fifty years. This tribute to Neil Young comes from that desire. He started to work on this tribute at the beginning of 2020 and it contains many Neil Young’s less known songs. Scott revealed that he had to dig deep down in his messed up brain to try and remember those songs. “When I had a major stroke three years ago, I lost my ability to talk, sing, make music. As I found my way back, I turned to the songs I had a best chance at recalling, music somewhere deep in the recesses of what was left of me,” Scott says in a note about the release. “The Beatles and Neil were my subterranean lode … words and chords COULD be unearthed if I tried hard and often enough. When this homegrown effort started taking shape, in the bowels of 2020, I consciously swerved away from much of the best known Neil songs to me, and the casual listener. Digging deeper, like I had tried to cough up favorite songs in the ditch of my  ed-up brain.”
