{"product_id":"freedom-7","title":"Freedom","description":"Amazon.com\n\nFreedom was Young's return to form after almost a decade of electronic experiments and mediocre novelty music. \"Rockin' in the Free World,\" a howling anthem about homelessness, depression, and drug dealing, bookends the album--and, in 1989, proved the singer\/songwriter hadn't completely dropped into obscurity. The romantic ballads (\"The Ways of Love\"), grunge-predicting guitar-rockers (a siren-screaming version of \"On Broadway\"), and one amazing, punk-like story-song (\"Crime in the City [Sixty to Zero, Part I]\") constitute Young's strongest writing in years. --Steve Knopper\n\nProduct Description\n\nFreedom is the eighteenth studio album by Canadian rock musician Neil Young, released on October 2, 1989. Freedom effectively relaunched Young's career after a largely unsuccessful decade. After many arguments (and a lawsuit), Young left Geffen Records in 1988 and returned to his original label, Reprise, with This Note's for You. Freedom, however, brought about a new, critical and commercially successful album. This album was released in the United States as an LP record and a CD in 1989. Stylistically, the album was one of Young's most diverse records, ranging from acoustic love songs to raging rockers. Three of the songs on Freedom (\"Don't Cry, \" \"Eldorado\" and \"On Broadway\") had previously been released on the Japan and Australia-only EP Eldorado, and featured heavy waves of thundering distortion and feedback, juxtaposed with quieter sections.\u003cbr\u003eASIN: B000002LHM\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: DBV.B000002LHM.G\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Neil Young\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Audio CD\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: Individually inspected: Guaranteed to play perfectly or your money back.
