Listen to Neil Young’s Christmas playlist

Neil Young has posted a Christmas playlist on his YouTube channel. Running to an hour and three quarters, it includes Young’s own material – including tracks from Harvest, After The Goldrush, American Stars ‘n’ Bars and Harvest Moon – as well as music taken from Seven Gates: A Christmas Album (later reissues as Christmas At The Ranch), a 1994 collection by his long-serving collaborator Ben Keith which featured Young alongside Johnny Cash, Nicolette Larson, J.J. Cale and others.
