Now Watching On Youtube

There's some other rare video on that page - I am going to try to find this:

 

Yesteryear Of The Horse

(Gold Standard)

LAST YEAR, AFTER Young released his Year Of The Horse concert film, a compilation video appeared among collectors' circles entitled Yesteryear Of The Horse. Highly unauthorized, it made for compelling viewing as it captured Neil and his Horse in full gallop in Japan and London during the legendary spring '76 tour; rumor had it the professionally shot footage was originally slated for a concert film, never completed, called Odeon/Budokan. Now, some enterprising persons have taken the audio portion of Yesteryear and turned it into a compact disc (also, um, highly unauthorized). And if you excuse the slightly low volume level, which can be remedied by a twist of a stereo knob, and a bit of audible hiss due to tape generation loss (not a problem if you're used to listening to live tapes), it's quite a show. Starting out in "mellow Neil" fashion ("Mellow My Mind," natch, then "Too Far Gone") and rising to an early rocking peak ("Drive Back," "Cowgirl In The Sand") then back down to some country and folk ("Lotta Love," "Tell Me Why"), it concludes with two of his epic-length classics ("Down By The River," "Cortez The Killer").

The dynamics of this set are just like those of a great concert, suggesting that the original video compilers had a sense of artistry about them, or at least an intuition where it comes to things-Neil. A lo-fi banjo/harmonica rehearsal of "Out On The Weekend," from '72, is tagged on the end as a nice bonus cut.

Kudos again to Aman for consistently posting some of the sickest jams to be found on youtube. :thumbup

 

"Elizabeth Reed" is to ABB as "Dark Star" is to GD. :worship

The man is a genius.

It's nice to know that several of us across the globe just spent 6 minutes and 36 seconds sitting in our computer chairs and grinning like idiots! :cheers

 

But the look on the drummer's face said "That is the last time I'm giving this mother f*cker any of my co-caine!"
