Out of print for over a decade, the 8CD box set is now being reissued in its original format – housed in the “Garypak”, a unique package designed by Young’s long-term art director, the late Gary Burden. Each CD has its own custom sleeve.
At the time of release in 2009, 13 of the songs had never been released before. A further 34 tracks were previously unreleased live or alternate versions. The repertoire covers the first decade of Neil Young’s career, including material from the Squires, Buffalo Springfield, Crazy Horse, Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young and his early solo albums. The box set comes with a 24-page booklet and a large fold-out Archives poster.
