Neil Young loves vintage automobiles so much he made an album that sounds like them. The drums powering the country-funk get-down “Fuel Line” mimic hammers bashing out dents in rusty hubcaps, while the ’50s-style rocker “Johnny Magic” roars like a muscle car tearing down the blacktop. But not every cut is so explicit. Acoustic and disarmingly honest, “Light a Candle” is a classic Young ballad that meditates on the winding journey that is life.

‘Mein Beethoven’ is the logical next step for Dieter Ilg. His last album ‘Parsifal’ – a chamber-jazz interpretation of Richard Wagner’s sacred festival work, which Focus magazine called a ‘highlight in the Richard Wagner Year 2013’ – closed with a whispered theme from Beethoven’s Ninth (‘Ode to Joy’), retitled ‘Sehnsucht’ (Longing) by Ilg. Now he has satisfied that yearning and recorded an entire album, ‘Mein Beethoven’, dedicated to this Olympian of German classical music, the most classical of all our composers, the one-time ‘superstar of the music capital Vienna’: Ludwig van Beethoven.
