...Ways" sounds very much like a transitional album, a disc Young felt he had to make to establish his new down-home credentials. Only in an historical sense, then, like 1969's painfuly feeble and ruthlessly over-dubbed "Neil Young," is "Old Ways" a vital part of the Young canon...
...blessed with a first-rate cast, a skilled if not always inspired conductor, and a director with strong dramatic ideas about the piece, it must rank as one of the best stagings in recent memory. Objections may be raised about some of Director Nikolaus Lehnhoff's departures from Wagnerian canon in an otherwise traditionalist view of the work.

The church's new code of canon law, which took effect in December of 1983, spells out the rules for all orders, down to such details as living in "their own religious house" rather than an apartment and wearing some kind of religious clothing "as a sign of their consecration."
