Neil Young

In September 1994, Neil Young and Crazy Horse performed 'Piece of Crap' at the Farm Aid concert held in New Orleans. This was a vibrant time in Young's career, as he had recently released the album 'Sleeps with Angels' earlier that same year, which included poignant themes reflecting his views on societal issues and personal experiences. The performance itself was energetic, showcasing Young's raw talent and his passion for social causes, especially poignant given the context of Farm Aid’s mission to support family farmers in America. Interestingly, 'Piece of Crap' stands out as a satirical commentary on consumerism, and during this era, Young was known for his unwavering stance on environmental issues and advocacy for farmers, making this live performance not just a musical event, but a statement on the world around him.
