Neil Young & Shocking Pinks
Everybody's Rockin'
Rare & Collectible Vinyl Records

1983 US Quiex II pressing; promo sticker has peeled off from bottom right area. In "Everybody's Rockin'" is yet another unexpected detour for Neil Young, this time into the rockabilly genre, crafting a concise album that both honors and pastiches the classic sounds of the 1950s. Released in 1983, the record is a spirited homage to a bygone era, brimming with energetic rhythms, slap-back echo, and twangy guitar licks. Young, ever the musical chameleon, embraces the rockabilly persona with both sincerity and a touch of irony, delivering tracks that range from the upbeat and catchy "Betty Lou's Got a New Pair of Shoes" to the more introspective "Wonderin'." The album, clocking in at just under 25 minutes, is a nod to the simplicity and directness of early rock 'n' roll, yet it also carries an undercurrent of Young's characteristic restlessness and genre-defying tendencies.
