Neil Young

In February 2008, Neil Young delivered a mesmerizing solo performance of "Down by the River" during a concert at Falconer Salen in Copenhagen. This heartfelt rendition came just after his album "Living with War," which had been released in 2006, a project that stirred up strong political sentiments and showcased his commitment to addressing social issues through music. By this time, Neil was well known for his ability to tap into the zeitgeist, blending poignant lyrics with his distinctive guitar work. It’s fascinating to think about how Young, with a career spanning decades, continues to evolve, yet retains that raw, authentic sound that fans adore. This live recording captures not just a song but an enduring legacy, showcasing a veteran artist still fully engaged in the craft.
