(2003)"Are You Passionate?" is a 2002
album byNeil Young andBooker T & the MGs . It represents Young's foray intosoul music , not sounding like anything he had previously released. Exceptions are the epic rocker "Goin' Home", recorded with Crazy Horse, and the brooding "Let's Roll", a response to the 9/11 terrorist attacks. The album ends with "She's A Healer", an extended jam considered by many to be the highlight.Track listing
