Neil Young - Way Down in the Rust Bucket

I have been streaming this new release quite a bit this past week, and it just gets better with each listen.
First of all, the performances are top notch. Neil and Crazy Horse are in fine form. No wasted notes, just great guitar jams. Second, but no less important, the sound quality is fantastic. I’m streaming from Qobuz in 24/192 and it sounds great.
As for the era, I own Ragged Glory but have never considered it my favorite era of theirs. This show is from that tour, and now that I’m hearing this show I really wish I had seen them on this tour. They are every bit as tight as any of the 70’s era live stuff I have heard.
I am considering the vinyl/DVD box set.  Have any of you purchased this one?  I'm curious to know the quality of the vinyl.  
Enjoy!

I'll check it out on Qobuz. But 62.00 for the vinyl release is a hard pill to swallow.......

62 bucks for almost 9 hours of music doesn't seem like such a bad deal when I often pay close to that for one MFSL release with 40 minutes of music.  I have a hard time making the time commitment to listening to big vinyl box sets though, it's much easier to digest in chunks streaming it.  Still listening, only 80 some songs to go.

9 hours?  I only see about 2.5 hours.  
Still, it's not overly expensive compared to other releases.  
I bought the vinyl/CD/DVD set.  Going to rock out tonight.

Listening on Qobuz right now. I have to say I'm pretty impressed. Good recording and some of my favs with the horse. I might have to pony up (you decide on the pun) for the vinyl.

My bad, I confused this release with what I've been listening to - Archives Vol II.
