Notes
Written in London in 1971 and cut in Nashville that year. My favorite record from Nashville. Neil Young Decade liner notes 1977
I've got this new song that I just wrote last night. And I can't remember all the words. And I forgot to bring out my piece of paper with them on it. This is a new song. It's going to be the title song on my album when it comes out. Should be April 15th in the United States. Probably a little sooner...there it is right there [presumably given the lyric sheet] - whoo, ah - a lotta words folks. I could never remember that. It's called Harvest. That's what the album will be called. Neil Young Royal Festival Hall, London, England February 27, 1971
