Are You Passionate? is a 2002 album by Neil Young and Booker T & the MGs. It represents Young's foray into soul 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.
