Neil Young's second solo album, released only four months after his first, was nearly a total rejection of that polished effort.
Though a couple of songs, "Round Round (It Won't Be Long)" and "The Losing End (When You're On)," shared that album's country-folk style, they were altogether livelier and more assured.
The difference was that, while Neil Young was a solo effort, Everybody Knows This Is Nowhere marked the beginning of Young's recording association with Crazy Horse, the trio of Danny Whitten (guitar), Ralph Molina (drums), and Billy Talbot (bass) that Young had drawn from the struggling local Los Angeles group the Rockets.
With them, Young quickly cut a set of loose, guitar-heavy rock songs -- "Cinnamon Girl," "Down by the River," and "Cowgirl in the Sand" -- that redefined him as a rock & roll artist.
The songs were deliberately underwritten and sketchy as compositions, their lyrics more suggestive than complete, but that made them useful as frames on which to hang the extended improvisations ("River" and "Cowgirl" were each in the nine-to-ten-minute range) Young played with Crazy Horse and to reflect the ominous tone of his singing.
Young lowered his voice from the near-falsetto employed on his debut to a more expressive range, and he sang with greater confidence, accompanied by Whitten and, on "Round Round," by Robin Lane.
Everybody Knows This Is Nowhere was breathtakingly different when it appeared in 1969, both for Young and for rock in general and it still stands as one of his undisputed masterpieces

VINYL Audio: NEAR MINT
Plays beautifully with just the occasional static tick but I did not clean this copy as it looks so immaculate so these will no doubt disappear after a clean/few spins
SLEEVE: EXCELLENT+
Again, great condition with a beautiful deep, unworn glossy sheen to the front laminate and crisp, sharp edges and spine where all text is clear and bold.
Some light marks to the untreated back but nothing really
