NEIL YOUNG - LET'S GO AWAY FOR AWHILE lyrics

rate me

I think this song is an instrumental. And it's also a Beachboy cut from the

Petsounds album. I remember that for two reasons--listening to the album and

not being sure why a Beachboy song would appear here, and reading a Rolling

Stone review.

I remember this Rolling Stone Magazine article complaining about the fact that

Brian Wilson used the song at the end of the album. I'm pretty sure that

"Let's Go Away For Awhile" was a Beachboy song from Petsounds that Brian used

at the end of Journey Through the Past. And I think Brian was involved in the

album's production.

Because the last few tracks have the sound of surf--at least that's the way I

remember it--it would make sense. I enjoyed the album, especially the Buffalo

Springfield stuff, and because I have been a Neil Young fan since I was in the

seventh grade when I heard the first Buffalo Springfield song, I really don't

care what critics say. I try to appreciate his artistry. It's an interesting

way to end a great album.
