  NEIL!!! Have a heart of gold and make a sedan delivery of some copies of OTB 
  to the record store shelves. There's a world of diehard fans out there who feel 
  like they're on the losing end without this gem in the collection. The music 
  needs to be heard! Tell me why you're holding out man!

  I own a lot of NY Lps and I have to say that one is my favorite (but Time Fades 
  Away is a close second.) I'm tired of waiting for this to be released on CD, 
  so last night I just ripped the Lp to a CD. Now I'm listening to it at work. 
  Joy!

Name: Rik Stigter Country: Netherlands Date: 
  Thu Feb 20 08:42:21 2003 Comment: My LP copy of OTB is growing old and stale. 
  I agree on the lousy quality of CD in general, but at my age I suppose I don't 
  hear the difference that well anymore, anyhow... The rest of the "missing SIX" 
  are sorely missed as well! Rik.

Name: Peter Theisen Country: Denmark Date: 
  Sun Feb 16 13:06:24 2003 Comment: When released, I found it strange and boring. 
  Bowadays, I seldom listen to Harvest, but often to "On the beach". So, Neil, 
  let the listener make his own choice - even if you personally find the album 
  too dark. 
Name: phil sawkins Country: japan Date: 
  Sun Feb 16 03:26:05 2003 Comment: I've only heard the album a few times on a 
  bad taped copy. That was almost 8 years ago in France. Still, when I have problems, 
  I always think of the lyric "though my problems are meaningless, that don't 
  make them go away". A haunting album.

Name: Ken Babich Country: Canada Date: Thu 
  Feb 13 00:27:09 2003 Comment: I just read 'Shakey' and Neil was quoted as saying 
  (with respect to the never ending quest to get his archives ready for release) 
  that the archives need to include everything, the good with the bad. Whatever 
  he thinks of 'On the Beach' doesn't matter. Not re-releasing it is hypocrisy. 
  
Name: Matt Price Country: u.s. Date: Wed 
  Feb 12 23:54:45 2003 Comment: Release On The Beach and American Stars N' Bars, 
  They are easily the best 2 albums by Neil Young but not everybody who wants 
  to listen to them can. Thanks alot for the MP3's You should make some for all 
  the "vinyl only" albums.
