Neil Young

In February 2008, Neil Young was in the thick of his Continental Tour, promoting his album "Chrome Dreams II," which had just hit the shelves in October 2007. This album, hailed for its eclectic mix of styles, showcased Young's creative evolution and his ability to blend rock, folk, and country seamlessly. The live recording of "Sad Movies" from the RAI in Amsterdam captures his introspective side, reflecting themes of love and heartache. An interesting tidbit? Young had been known for his specially designed guitars, and in this performance, he often incorporates unique sound textures that only he can conjure. This era was a poignant time in his career, as he balanced embracing new musical influences with his iconic, recognizable sound, making moments like this concert essential pieces of his ongoing legacy.
