Tuscaloosa (album)

Tuscaloosa is a live album by Canadian-American musician Neil Young, released on June 7, 2019, on American record label Reprise Records. It is Volume 04 in the Performance Series of Neil Young Archives.

The album features recordings from the February 5, 1973, concert in Tuscaloosa, Alabama, which was part of Young's Time Fades Away tour with his backing band The Stray Gators. Unlike the album Time Fades Away, which was compiled from later tour dates, the lineup features drummer Kenny Buttrey (who was later replaced by Johnny Barbata). The album doesn't feature the whole concert, as not all the songs were captured to tape, while "The Loner" and "On the Way Home" were not included for various reasons ("The Loner" eventually was made available for streaming for Archives subscribers in 2020).

The album was also included in the Archives Volume II boxset released in 2020.

Tuscaloosa was originally released on Neil Young's website through a monthly subscription that included other benefits for fans, for Young was known to criticize streaming platforms as he claimed they provided low-resolution music streaming quality and unequal payment methods to artists for every stream.
