Neil Young

In this electrifying live recording from November 30, 1975, Neil Young and Crazy Horse deliver a heartfelt performance of "Don't Cry No Tears" at the Budokan in Tokyo. This show came just before the 1976 release of Young's acclaimed album "Long May You Run," created in collaboration with the Stills-Young Band. Interestingly, Young was exploring a more polished sound during this period, diverging from his earlier raw acoustics. Known for his unpredictable touring style, Young's willingness to embrace the live setting contrasts with the studio work and offers a raw glimpse into his emotional depth. This performance, capturing Young's signature gruff vocals and gritty guitar, still resonates with audiences today, showcasing his undeniable impact on rock music and his ability to connect authentically with fans.
