Neil Young

In 1990, Neil Young delivered an electrifying performance of 'Keep on Rockin' in the Free World' at the Farm Aid concert in Indianapolis. This moment came amid a vibrant chapter in his career, shortly after releasing his album 'Freedom' in 1989. 'Freedom' marked a significant return to form for Young, featuring a mix of rock and socially conscious themes, perfectly aligning with the spirit of Farm Aid's mission to support family farmers. Interestingly, 'Keep on Rockin' in the Free World' became a defining anthem for not just the album but for a generation grappling with socio-economic challenges. Young’s passionate delivery at this live event underscored his commitment to activism and artistry, reflecting the urgency of the times.
