Next month, Neil Young and Crazy Horse will release their new album, Americana, via Reprise records. The album contains interpretations of American standards like "Clementine ," "Gallows Pole" and yes, even "She'll Be Comin' 'Round the Mountain."
According to Rolling Stone, Neil Young & Crazy Horse have set a June 5 release date for a new album, Americana. The album — Young's first record with the full Crazy Horse lineup in over 15 years — features the band taking on classic American folk standards.
While last night's 54th Grammy Awards was the week's biggest music event, the show had something of a dry run Friday night, when Paul McCartney was honored at the 22nd annual MusiCares Person of the Year gala in Los Angeles.
