Neil Young has announced the forthcoming release of Hitchhiker, a long-lost solo acoustic album he recorded in a single day in 1976.
The previously unreleased album, available on Sept. 8, features material recorded live in Malibu, Calif., reports Pitchfork. Young’s longtime collaborator David Briggs produced the original 1976 recordings, according to Pitchfork. The forthcoming version features post-production by John Hanlon.
