"Any Young completist will need Carnegie Hall 1970, but it's a special performance that can be appreciated by more casual listeners as well. Alone at the microphone, the purity, simplicity, and one-of-a-kind magic of some of Neil Young's best songs come into view in a way that's undeniable".

"[This] first entry in Neil's Official Bootleg Series comes hot on the heels of 'Young Shakespeare', which captured a solo show taped less than two months later. There's overlap in the setlists, but 'Carnegie Hall' has its own distinct vibe, with the songwriter coming to terms in real time with his burgeoning, sometimes over-enthusiastic fanbase. But when things calm down, Neil rewards them with an often brilliant set, presented here in not-at-all-bootleggy sound quality. Highlights include three Buffalo Springfield tunes (...), all re-imagined for grand piano, plus a preview of the 'Harvest' to come with a note-perfect 'Old Man', already sounding like an utter classic".
