  freedom - Hutchinson encyclopedia article about freedom
The absence of restraint is known in philosophical terms as negative freedom; a concrete example is the freedom of a prisoner released from jail.
The negative view of freedom tends to be held by those philosophers who think that the state is no more than the sum of the individuals composing it (mechanism).
The positive view of freedom tends to be held by those philosophers who regard the state as an end to which its citizens are the means (organicism).

 Freedom
The 80's are often referred to as Young's "lost" decade after turning out a series of albums which left many fans scratching their heads at his experiments in techno, rockabilly, and country.
A ranking of the ten most important albums in the history of alternative music was compiled in 2001 by Pagewise.

 Album Quilts
Album quilts were not just quilts made for warmth and/or beauty, but rather they were, and are, made with love and affection with the primary purpose of expressing that sentiment to the recipient.
Album or Friendship quilts, were made with a special recipient in mind, while another type of Signature quilt, the Fundraising quilt, was made to raise funds.
About 25 years ago, Album quilts began to enjoy renewed popularity and these quilts are still likely to be signed in embroidery, or with the newer ink pens which again promise to be non corrosive to fabrics.

Freedom was Young's return to form after almost a decade of electronic experiments and mediocre novelty music.
In 1969 Young released his first great album, `Everybody Knows This Is Nowhere', his first with Crazy Horse and delivering timeless tunes such as `Cinnamon Girl', `Down By the River', and `Cowgirl In the Sand'.
Freedom is a ringing declaration, a call to arms and a classic.

 Tonight's The Night
Neil Young's 1975 "Tonight's The Night" is considered to be his 'darkest' album - both literally and figuratively - and the last of the "Ditch Trilogy" (along with Times Fade Away and On The Beach).
The album explores the depth of Neil's pain over the heroin overdose deaths of Crazy Horse's Danny Whitten and roadie Bruce Berry.
The legend of the album continued to grow with Lynyrd Skynyrd 's album 'Street Survivors', where you can see Ronnie Van Zant wearing a 'Tonight's the Night' t-shirt on the cover which was taken shortly before he died in a plane crash.

 Plan 9 - Neil Young : Prairie Wind   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-11)
Neil Young always seems to be making a comeback, but detractors who have diligently panned his releases from the 1990s and 2000s (and sometimes with good reason) will be forced to change their tune with 2005's PRAIRIE WIND.
The most striking characteristic of the album is its mood, which is heavily nostalgic, melancholy, and, lyrically, full of reflections on memory, loss, and mortality.
Instead, Young cut the album in Nashville with top-shelf personnel (Spooner Oldham is among the usual suspects), giving PRAIRIE WIND a smooth veneer.

 Amazon.co.uk: Freedom: Music: Neil Young   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-11)
Realistically, a large element of this album is Neil making socio-political commentary, and he is not the greatest lyricist or thinker to pull that off.
“Freedom” – his best album from the 1980’s – opens with two of his finest tracks: the anthemic “Rockin’ in the Free World” and the driving acoustic riffs, wonderfully atmospheric sax breaks and lyrically brilliant textures of the 8 minute “Crime in the City”.
In short, if you're into Neil Young you MUST buy this album, it is just the greatest ever Neil Young album and one of my personal choices as contender for greatest album of all time.

I had enjoyed "Neil Young" as a casual listener before this, but "Freedom" is the first album of his that I totally absorbed and loved.
While 'Freedom' isn't the groundbreaking work 'Everybody Knows...' or 'Rust Never Sleeps' proved to be, it did serve the purpose of positioning Neil square in the mainstream of popular music for another decade.
I respect this album as the catalyst for Neil's return to his former glory after the unpredictable 80s, but I have to say I don't like this work.

 King's X.Net: Album Reviews and Discography: A Site for Fans of the Power Rock Trio from Houston Texas   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-11)
In fact, my only criticism of the new album is the fact that, with its newer electronic sound, it seems like it's the one that should have had the guy with the big lightbulb for a head on the cover.
If the rest of the album is as strong, this will be a must have in any CD collection.
Throughout their 16-year existence, King's X have remained an enigma., refusing to have their sound - a combination of eclectic moments lifted from metal, pop and soul - pigeon-holed into any specific genre.

 Threads of Freedom: The Underground Railroad Story in Quilts
This nationwide, informal network of fugitive slaves and their supporters was particularly strong in Ohio, which became known as its "trunk line." In 1787 Congress abolished slavery in the Northwest Territory, a region that became the states of Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Michigan, Wisconsin, and part of Minnesota.
Because the Fugitive Slave Law of 1850 still permitted southern slaveholders to apprehend fugitives in northern states, however, once the fugitives were in Ohio they continued north into Canada, which had no such provision.
The earliest quilt in the exhibition is the Abolitionist Quilt, an album quilt made around 1842 by Hadley family members of Clinton County, Ohio, and Wayne County, Indiana.

 Neil Young: Freedom ---Ink Blot Magazine
But as the decade drew to a close he slowly, slowly got his act together.
Freedom isn't a perfect record; it includes two dreadfully over-glossed ballads ("Wrecking Ball" and "Someday") and a criminal hedge-clipper edit job on "Don't Cry's" guitar solo (you have to unearth a copy of "Eldorado," an EP released in Japan in New Zealand, to hear the uncut version).
Freedom is a heartening document of a man who'd been lost for too long finding himself.

 Elvis Costello - Allen Toussaint - The River In Reverse - Verve Forecast
Sessions for the album took place over a whirlwind two weeks late last year in Hollywood, CA and at Piety Street Studios in Toussaint's hometown of New Orleans.
Produced by Joe Henry, the album masterfully combines Costello's band The Imposters with Toussaint's horn section (Amadee Castenell, Joe Smith, Sam Williams and Brian Cayolle) and guitarist (Anthony Brown).
The majority of the tracks were cut with the entire group in the room and Costello singing live, occasionally adding his guitar to the mix.

 [No title]
You can skip the instructions right into the lyrics/chords but note that Neil plays Em7 (add your pinky on the D on the second string) in the verses instead of the Em at the beginning of each line, and that he plays C and Cadd9 in the chorus instead the C here.
This is a great song, (and the second one I ever learned), not difficult to play and a great strumming exercise for beginners (information is included about nearly every beat of the measure).
VERSION and NOTES: ------------------ 1) BTW I have 3 versions of the song, 2 electric (from Freedom and Weld) and one acoustic, this is the acoustic version from Neil Young's "Freedom" album.

 HyperRust: FUNHOUSE! "Freedom" Review
This isn't to say that Freedom is an easy album to evaluate, in the fashion of something like Ragged Glory.
Freedom represents the first step in Neil's commercial come back, and as such there are a number of good, and some great, cuts included.
Its shifting style makes for a unique listening experience, and while fans have seen such shifts in style in the past on records from one side to the other, notably on Rust Never Sleeps and Hawks and Doves, be ready for changes from track to track on this one.

In 1989, White Heart released Freedom, the last of their three albums on their contract with Sparrow Records.
Freedom is my overall favorite White Heart album, featuring vocalist Rick Florian, guitarists Billy Smiley and Gordon Kennedy, keyboardist Mark Gersmehl, bassist Tommy Simms and drummer Chris McHugh--probably the best lineup in the band's history.
The Brown Bannister produced albums best tracks "Kingdom Come", "Power Tools" and "Invitation" are better than almost any secular album, let alone a CCM one.

 The Road to Freedom album-review
I think they've taken LRH's voice off some tape or other [this album was released in 1989, after his head was enshrined posthumously], singing a little ditty that has a musical climax on a low note.
The funny part is, LRH apparantly couldn't hit the low note, so it's been pretty blatantly dubbed in and had a lot of effects dumped on it to make it sound like Barry White or something.
I think this is why they were asking for all members to purchase 12 albums each, so it would go platinum or something.

 SA ROCK DIGEST ISSUE #113
The songs are mellower than on the studio albums, this is thanks largely to some prominant flute work of José Guadiana and mandolin strumming from Steve Cooney, but still maintain their edge, thanks to the biting lyrics that we know and love, and also the familiar rough, yet somehow smooth vocal tones.
For many, this album is one magnificent trip, lost in the haze of hippiness, and indeed the album is laced with narcotic references, but as far as talent goes, 'Cold Fact' is a remarkable album perfect for idealists and dreamers.
The obsessive 'I Wonder', perhaps the best known of the album’s tracks, is a simple tune that mirrors the type of questions you’ve always wanted to ask of certain people and never had the courage, but it is the album’s ultra-trippy opening number, 'Sugar Man' which really lends the album an air of intrigue.

 Freedom by Neil Young CD
After spending the 1980s going through stylistic changes, Neil Young released FREEDOM, a more straight-forward rock album that was no less lyrically complex despite its appeal to a broader piece of the mainstream.
Neil has always been an artist who has challenged conventions by altering styles and personas from year to year and from album to album.
After releasing a dizzying 7 albums in the previous 8 years which ranged from hard core rock of re-ac-tor to vocoder vocals on Trans to country on Old Ways and rockabilly with The Shocking Pinks, Neil released an album which seemed to have all of his best styles rolled into one.

According to his official biography, it was this year that he decided to become a singer: "Despite his enormous success in television, Hasselhoff's childhood dream of a recording career had, by the late 1980's, yet to be fulfilled.
The album, Looking for Freedom, hit the top of the German charts as well, staying there for three months.
The most thrilling performance of his singing career, however, came when Hasselhoff was invited to perform, "Looking For Freedom," live on top of the Berlin Wall on New Year's Eve, 1989.

 2 Live Crew, MP3 Music Download at eMusic
The furor over the graphic sexual content of their X-rated party rhymes -- specifically their 1989 album As Nasty as They Wanna Be -- was a major catalyst in making rap music a flash point for controversy and an easily visible target for self-appointed moral guardians.
The state prosecutor determined that action had to be taken on the local, not state, level, and thus in early 1990 Broward County sheriff Nick Navarro obtained a copy of the album and secured a ruling from County Circuit Court Judge Mel Grossman that there was probable cause that the album was legally obscene.
Record retailer Charles Freeman was arrested two days later for selling the album to an undercover cop, and the three rapping members of the 2 Live Crew were arrested on obscenity charges for performing material from the record in a local club.
