Americana ist das 45. Album von Neil Young . Seine erste Zusammenarbeit mit Crazy Horse seit den Aufnahmen zu Greendale und ihrer gemeinsamen Tournee 2003/2004 wurde am 5. Juni 2012 veröffentlicht. Das Album enthält Neuinterpretationen klassischer amerikanischer Folksongs .
Rezeption Country Music News meinte zu dem Album, Neil Young schicke die alten Klassiker quasi in eine Zeitmaschine, wenn auch an der E-Gitarre technisch etwas eingeschränkt.[1] Durch das Neuarrangement der leicht angestaubten Titel aus dem Great American Songbook entfalteten sie fast magische Klänge.
