Northern Lights – Southern Cross is the sixth studio album by Canadian-American rock group the Band, released in 1975. It was the first album to be recorded at their new California studio, Shangri-La, and the first album of all new material since 1971's Cahoots.

Northern Lights-Southern Cross totals eight songs in all, and he and the rest of the group rose to the occasion, luxuriating in the range afforded by the studio (christened Shangri-La, a reference to the idyllic haven for art and civilization in James Hilton's novel Lost Horizon - the vibes were that good).

The first few seconds of Northern Lights - Southern Cross promise a departure. Before long it’s equally evident that the Band’s new sound is the result of a revolution in instrumental and recording technology and not of a revolution in ideas. Rags and Bones, which ends the album, consists of an obsessive catalog of urban sights and sounds with only a passing evocation of déjà vu to indicate what they mean to Robertson or are supposed to mean to the listener. In Jupiter Hollow, an apparent dream journey into states of mental dissociation, Robertson notes matter-of-factly, without seeming to complain, that nobody cares when a man goes mad/And tries to free the ghost within.

The Band’s Northern Lights-Southern Cross is, in nearly every respect, the group’s studio swan song. The group’s fifth album is also one of its finest works, a finely textured collection that at the time of its 1975 release marked the quintet’s first album of new material in four years. And what songs they are. Anchored by the standards Acadian Driftwood, Ophelia, and It Makes No Difference, the set finds the collective in peak form. Mastered from the original master tapes brings the beauty, intellect, and contours of Northern Lights-Southern Cross to life as never before
