ROCK REVIEW

Neil Young in Concert: How to Get to the Point

By Jon Pareles

  • Aug. 21, 1996

Neil Young sang his credo as one of his encores at Madison Square Garden on Monday night. ''People tell us that we play too loud/But they don't know what our music's about,'' he declared in ''Prisoners of Rock 'n' Roll.'' He continued, ''That's why we don't want to be good.''

By then, he didn't need to explain. He and Crazy Horse had already demonstrated how to use nothing more than the basics -- three or four chords, a lumbering beat and blaring, distorted guitars -- to make rock that was elemental and profoundly satisfying. After three decades as a performer, Mr. Young doesn't bother with frills or try to be a ''good'' musician with fancy technique. His example has taught grunge and alternative-country musicians how eloquent a plain statement and an unpolished sound can be.

Mr. Young's tours with Crazy Horse have long been as dependable as rock gets. Although he has worked with other groups, from Booker T. and the M.G.'s to Pearl Jam, he keeps coming back to Crazy Horse (Frank Sampedro on guitar, Billy Talbot on bass and Ralph Molina on drums). Since his 1978 ''Rust Never Sleeps'' tour, Mr. Young has sporadically reconvened the band to stomp through some of his best 1970's songs and more recent ones; he also plays a handful of songs by himself while full houses of longtime fans sing along. On Monday, the set included three songs from the ''Rust Never Sleeps'' album, six from his 1976 compilation, ''Decade,'' and three from his new album, ''Broken Arrow'' (Reprise), along with one each from the 1980's and early 1990's. There were no clinkers.

Nearly all the songs were slow, usually in minor keys, with a beat somewhere between a clog dance and a long march. Only the encores were reminders of Mr. Young's variety, with the punky ''Sedan Delivery'' and the blues-tinged ''Tonight's the Night.'' Most of the songs had only verses with no choruses, like Appalachian ballads, and their lyrics were filled with visionary leaps. They arrived in a tempest of guitars, with Mr. Young's measured lead lines poking through layers of fuzz tone or gleaming far above the din.

In the high, quavery but resolute voice of a bemused wraith, Mr. Young sang about friends lost to heroin, in 20-year-old songs that could apply to rock's latest wave of addiction. He also sang ''Sugar Mountain,'' a glimpse of lost youth written on his 19th birthday; now that he's 50, singing to an arena full of baby boomers, it has grown more plaintive. And he sang about lost Edens, from Aztec Mexico to 1960's California, as he insisted, ''I'm still living the dream we shared.''

The music was unadorned, and so was the staging. Mr. Young was in grungewear -- baggy shorts and a T-shirt -- and he bobbed up and down almost constantly, often at faster tempos than the songs. The backdrop was simply a large sheet of fabric illuminated in one color at a time: orange, for instance, in ''Cinnamon Girl.'' For much of the set, the band was dimly lighted, with Mr. Young's face in shadows. The only special effects were a barrage of strobe lights during ''Like a Hurricane,'' when Mr. Young and Crazy Horse let loose a huge, sustained rumble, the roar of that hurricane breaking free.

The music was deliberately primitive but never crude. Mr. Young and Mr. Sampedro are connoisseurs of distortion who get their rough-hewn guitar sounds from small, old-looking amplifiers, driven to their limits and then meticulously miked. Above the rhythm section's crunch and splash, they created a monumental noise, simultaneously grand and frazzled and ornery. It filled the arena with resonances of both rustic Americana and technological wallop, in a vast, detailed buzz of memories and desires, consonance and chaos. The sound was as much a masterwork as the songs, one 1970's artifact that's not at all dated.

Neil Young & Crazy Horse Open ‘Love Earth Tour’ With Jam-Heavy Night Of Classics [Videos]

When  Neil Young announced his tour with  Crazy Horse back in February, he didn’t announce much else. All fans really knew was that Young and his longtime on-and-off backing band would play 16 shows (since increased to 28) with  Willie Nelson ‘s son  Micah taking over guitar duties for  Nils Lofgren who is touring with Bruce Springsteen & The E Street Band . Those who showed up to his tour opener on Wednesday in San Diego rolled the dice on what they might get, and they were rewarded for their faith with a night full of classic songs, a “new” verse on an old favorite, lengthy bouts of improvisation, and a solo acoustic interlude.

As the crew drew back a curtain to reveal the oversized amplifiers and road cases from the 1978  Rust Never Sleeps tour (H/T  Rolling Stone ), Young took the stage at the  Cal Coast Credit Union Open Air Theatre  alongside Nelson, drummer Ralph Molina , and bassist  Billy Talbot . Armed with Old Black, Young started the show off with a bang on a 14-minute version of “Cortez the Killer”. Amid the tight, heavily distorted jamming, Young unveiled a lost verse for the 1975  Zuma favorite which was left off the original recording because the studio console briefly lost power. Young recently stumbled upon the original lyrics and revealed earlier this month that audiences would hear the song as it was originally written.

“I floated on the water,” Young sang. “I ate that ocean wave/Two weeks after the slaughter/I was living in a cave/They came too late to get me/But there’s no one here to set me free/From this rocky grave/To that snowed-out ocean wave.”

Young and Crazy Horse delivered a one-two punch of classics by following up “Cortez the Killer” with “Cinnamon Girl”. After that came “Scattered (Let’s Think About Livin’)” from 1996’s  Broken Arrow , which proved the newest song played all night. The band dug deep for lengthy runs through “Down by the River” (15 minutes) and “Love and Only Love” (16 minutes), while between jams Young romped through “Don’t Cry No Tears”, “Everybody Knows This is Nowhere”, and “Powderfinger” with vigor unexpected from a near-octogenarian.

Following the lengthy “Love and Only Love”, Young eschewed his bandmates and strapped on his harmonica for a solo interlude. The acoustic-armed Young led singalongs on “Comes a Time”, “Heart of Gold”, and “Human Highway” before bringing the band back out to stomp through a finale of “Don’t Be Denied” and “Hey Hey, My My (Into the Black)”.

Neil Young & Crazy Horse return to Cal Coast Credit Union Open Air Theatre tonight, April 25th, for their second of two sold-out shows.  Check out some videos of the tour opener from Todd Norris below.

Neil Young and Crazy Horse Kick Off Love Earth Tour in San Diego

by Paul Cashmere on April 27, 2024

Neil Young & Crazy Horse are back on the road in the USA with the 2024 kicking off with two shows in San Diego this week.

Crazy Horse 2024 featured Billy Talbot on bass, Ralph Molina on drums and Micah Nelson, Willie’s son and Promise of the Real member on guitar, replacing Nils Lofgren. Lofgren is on tour with The E Street Band.

‘Love Earth’ had one glaring omission on the first show. The title ‘Love Earth’ was not in the setlist. ‘Love Earth’ was the title track of the most recent Neil and Crazy Horse album from 2022. There was nothing from the two most recent Crazy Horse albums, ‘Love Earth’ and ‘Barn’. You have to go back 28 years for the newest song in the setlist, ‘Scattered’ from 1996’s ‘Broken Arrow’.

Neil’s latest album of reused songs ‘Fu##in’ Up’ was the centrepiece of second show with five tracks out of the 14 song setlist. ‘Fu##in’ Up’, released this week (26 April), so a remake of the 1990 ‘Ragged Glory’. Why? Who knows how Neil’s mind works sometimes. Maybe he was inspired by all those Taylor Swift ‘Taylor’s Version’ cash grabs.

The first show on Wednesday 24 April 2024 was more about ‘Everybody Knows This Is Nowhere’ from 1969 with four songs out of the 14 from that iconic album of Neils.

The both shows kicked off in true elongated Crazy Horse glory with a 15 minute version of ‘Cortez The Killer’. The electric set ended with a similarly long ‘Love and Only Love’ and just to keep the jam going, show one also had a 15 minute ‘Down By The River’.

The show was divided into two parts with Crazy Horse grunge at the start followed by Neil in acoustic mode with the band back for the encore.

Neil Young Launches Love Earth Tour: Set List and Video

Neil Young launched his 2024 Love Earth Tour with Crazy Horse in San Diego, California on Wednesday night.

Young performed a number of his classics, including “Cortez the Killer,” “Cinnamon Girl,” “Powderfinger” and “Heart of Gold.”

You can view videos from the show, as well as a complete set list, below.

Young recently put out a new album with Crazy Horse, titled FU##IN’ UP, which was released on limited edition color vinyl on Record Store Day , April 20, and will get an all-format release on April 26.

“In the spirit it’s offered…made this for the Horse lovers,” Young previously said of the new record. “I can’t stop it. The horse is runnin’. What a ride we have. I don’t want to mess with the vibe. I am so happy to have this to share.”

Neil Young’s Next Stops

From here, Young will bring his tour to over two dozen American and Canadian cities, including his hometown of Toronto. He’ll perform in outdoor venues only, a precaution he decided to adopt following the pandemic.

“We gotta be careful,” Young said on a fan Zoom earlier this month [via Rolling Stone ]. “I don’t know the stats on it, but I imagine if you look at a regular group of 15,000 or 20,000 people, just randomly from around the world, and then look at 15,000 or 20,000 people that all went to a show, and how many of them got Covid, I think you’d found people that went to a show inside have a lot more of a chance of getting sick. I don’t really need to do that. Willie Nelson told me he’s only playing outside now. I felt that was a good idea, so that’s what I’m doing.”

Neil Young and Crazy Horse's "Love Earth" tour coming to Colorado this summer

By Austen Erblat

Updated on: April 23, 2024 / 3:01 PM MDT / CBS Colorado

Neil Young is making his return to the Denver area this summer after not having played in Colorado since 2016.

He and Crazy Horse are set to play Fiddler's Green Amphitheatre in Greenwood Village on July 31. The last time Young played in Colorado was in October 2016 in Telluride, where he owns a barn he rebuilt. That barn is also home to a recording studio he called "Studio in the Clouds" where he recorded his 2019 album, "Colorado."

That album marked the reunion of Young and Crazy Horse after a 7-year hiatus. The group has played together for a combined 50 years.

Neil Young preforms at Denver University's Magness Arena, promoting his new album, "Fork in the Road." Young delivered classics and songs from his new album in a two and a half hour show. Opening for Young was the Neville Brothers and Everest. Tim Rasmuss

"In the spirit it's offered...made this for the Horse lovers. I can't stop it. The horse is runnin'. What a ride we have. I don't want to mess with the vibe. I am so happy to have this to share," Young said in a statement about the tour.

Doors open at 6:30 p.m. and the show is set to start at 7:30 p.m.

Presales began Tuesday but general ticket sales don't start until 10 a.m. Friday. You can buy tickets at AXS.com .

Austen Erblat is a digital producer and assignment editor at CBS News Colorado and is Covering Colorado First. Originally from South Florida, he's been working as a journalist in Denver since 2022.

Neil Young Stuns at 2024 Tour Launch, Unveils Lost ‘Cortez the Killer’ Verse

By Andy Greene

Andy Greene

In typical Neil Young fashion, virtually nothing was revealed about his 2024 U.S. tour before it kicked off Wednesday night at San Diego’s Cal Coast Credit Union Open Air Theatre, other than the fact he’d be backed by Crazy Horse , and that Micah Nelson would be taking over guitar duties from Nils Lofgren. Would he pull a Greendale and debut an entire rock opera nobody had ever heard? Would he focus the set around the three new studio albums he cut with Crazy Horse between 2019 and 2022? Might he repeat the concept of his 2023 solo tour by spotlighting obscure Eighties and Nineties album tracks and skipping most of his hits?

They jammed for six minutes before Young sang the opening lines, igniting the crowd into a frenzy, but the big moment came near the end, when he began singing completely unfamiliar words. As he teased earlier this month , it was the legendary lost segment of the song that failed to record during the 1975 Zuma sessions because the console briefly lost power. Young recently found the lyric manuscript, and worked out where they originally fit in the song.

“I floated on the water,” Young sang. “I ate that ocean wave/Two weeks after the slaughter/I was living in a cave/They came too late to get me/But there’s no one here to set me free/From this rocky grave/To that snowed-out ocean wave.”

It was a remarkable moment to witness. After 49 years and over 540 live performances, the world finally got to hear the song as Young originally wrote it.

Editor’s picks

The 250 greatest guitarists of all time, the 500 greatest albums of all time, the 50 worst decisions in movie history, every awful thing trump has promised to do in a second term.

Young was talking about “Scattered (Let’s Think About Livin’),” from 1996’s Broken Arrow, which was the newest song they played all evening. The rest of the set was music recorded when Briggs was alive, largely between 1969 and 1979, beginning with “Don’t Cry No Tears.” He followed it up with a triple shot of Everybody Knows This Is Nowhere : “Down by the River,” “The Losing End,” and the title track. And it was a particularly mesmerizing “Down by the River” that stretched out for 16 blissful minutes.

After the Everybody Knows This Is Nowhere mini-set, the quartet (Crazy Horse 4.0?) kicked into one of the greatest renditions of “Powderfinger” I’ve ever heard, thanks to improvisational guitar work prior to each verse by Young and Nelson. What came next was a 16-minute “Love and Only Love,” the band walking offstage, and then Young strapping on an harmonica rack for solo acoustic renditions of “Comes a Time,” “Heart of Gold,” and “Human Highway” that had the entire amphitheater singing along.

The band returned to wrap up the night with “Don’t Be Denied,” an autobiographical tale that carries a lot more emotional weight when Young sings it at age 78 as opposed to 28, and a thrashed-out “Hey Hey, My My (Into the Black).”

Team trump is ready to lose the supreme court immunity case. they’re celebrating, billie eilish would like to reintroduce herself, russian mercenaries hunt the african warlord america couldn’t catch.

He might duplicate this exact set when the tour continues the following night at the same venue. He might not repeat a single song. He may even perform a complete classic album, which is something he started doing late last year. The joy of seeing Neil Young is that you never have any idea what’s going to happen once the lights dim.
