Neil Young’s much-delayed Archives, Volume 1 box set will finally be released via Warner Bros. on June 1st. The lavish 10-disc set, available in Blu-Ray (retailing for $299), DVD ($199), and CD ($99) versions, features every studio album Young recorded with Buffalo Springfield, Crosby, Stills, Nash, & Young, and solo, as well as rarities and live tracks, from his earliest work in 1963 through his peak commercial years, 1972’s Harvest era. It looks to be, quite literally, every note Young committed to tape during these years. A preorder page has been set up, featuring an interactive video tour of the box. Full tracklist after the jump.
