"Toast" is the 44th studio album by Neil Young and Crazy Horse, the Canadian-American singer-songwriter's band. Recorded originally in 2000-2001, the album was initially shelved in favor of "Are You Passionate?" and remained unreleased for over two decades. It finally saw its official release on July 8, 2022, as part of Volume 09 of Neil Young Archives' Special Release Series.
As one of Young's "lost" albums, "Toast" offers a glimpse into a specific creative period of his career with Crazy Horse. The delayed release added to its mystique and anticipation among fans and music critics alike. The album's availability as part of the Neil Young Archives' series underscores its significance within Young's extensive discography and his ongoing exploration of different musical styles and collaborations over the years.
