Hear Neil Young's new guitar album

Also on NPR. This one's pretty interesting, both to listen to and the story behind it:

As producer Daniel Lanois puts it, there is no band, no overdubs, just "a man on a stool and me doing a nice job on the recording."

...To record the album, Lanois gave Young an electro/acoustic guitar; he'd spent years perfecting the instrument's electronics.

"I wanted to give him something he'd never heard before. He picked up that instrument, which had everything — an acoustic sound, electronica, bass sounds — and he knew when he played it that we had taken the acoustic guitar to a new level. It's hard to come up with a new sound at the back end of 50 years of rock 'n' roll, but I think we did it."
