Neil Young – This Note’s For You – 7599257191 – LP Record | |
This Note’s for You is the 16th studio album by Canadian / American musician Neil Young, released April 11, 1988 on Reprise. It was originally credited to “Young and the Bluenotes.” Part of the album’s concept centered on the commercialism of rock and roll, and tours in particular. (The title selection, specifically, is a hostile social commentary on concert sponsorship.) The music is marked by the use of a horn section. It also marked Young’s return to the recently reactivated Reprise Records after a rocky tenure with Geffen Records.In 2015, Young released a live album from the album’s accompanying tour, which he titled Bluenote Café.The video for the title track – directed by Julien Temple and written by Charlie Coffey – included a Michael Jackson lookalike whose hair catches fire. The video parodied corporate rock and the pretensions of advertising, and was patterned after a series of Michelob ads that featured contemporary rock artists such as Eric Clapton, Genesis and Steve Winwood. The video also featured parodic inserts from commercials featuring impersonators of Jackson and Whitney Houston, as well as popular characters such as a Spuds McKenzie lookalike. The title itself mocks Budweiser’s “This Bud’s For You” ad campaign. | |
