Official release series discs 22, 23+, 24 & 25

"The fifth volume of Neil Young's ongoing Official Release Series reissue campaign covers his great comeback of the George Herbert Walker Bush administration. The box -- containing either five CDs or nine LPs -- features the studio albums Freedom and Ragged Glory, along with the double-live Weld and its experimental feedback-laced companion Arc. Only Ragged Glory gets a new remaster here; it's also the only one to feature bonus tracks, with the B-sides "Interstate" and "Don't Spook the Horse" added to the record alongside the previously unreleased versions of "Box Car" and "Born to Run." These are nice enticements to Ragged Glory itself, while the rest of the set lives up to the series' reputation for handsome, definitive reissues of Young's core catalog".
