Neil Young and Promise of the Real

Collaboration between Canadian singer-songwriter Neil Young and American band Promise of the Real, credited on recent studio releases including The Visitor and Peace Trail.

Neil Young is a Canadian singer-songwriter and musician active since the 1960s. He collaborated with Promise of the Real on The Visitor; he released Peace Trail and publicly supported the Standing Rock protests (Dakota Access).

The DeBaser review by sotomayor delivers a largely negative assessment of The Visitor, criticizing arrangements, guitar sound and band performance. Acoustic tracks fare better, but not enough to redeem the album. The reviewer contrasts this release with the more positively received Peace Trail.
