The provenance of FU##IN’ UP is slightly less clear at this point. According to an email received bt Young’s Archives subscribers:
Neil and The Horse have played together for over 50 years and the performances of these familiar songs, recorded in 2023, is a true highlight. As Neil explains, “In the spirit it’s offered…made this for the Horse lovers. I can’t stop it. The horse is runnin’. What a ride we have. I don’t want to mess with the vibe. I am so happy to have this to share.” FU##IN’ UP contains 9 songs on 2 LPs. The album will be released in limited edition color vinyl pressing on Record Store Day April 20 with a wider, all format release starting April 26.
According to rumours, it might well be a recording from a private performance at The Rivoli, Toronto on November 3, 2023.
