Neil Young

In 2015, Neil Young, already a legendary figure in rock music, was riding high on his artistic resurgence with the release of 'The Monsanto Years,' an album inspired by environmental themes and corporate greed. This progressive album, dropped earlier in June, showcased his collaboration with Promise of the Real (POTR), blending his classic rock roots with a fresh, dynamic sound. During the live performance at the Santa Barbara Bowl on October 10, 2015, captured in the video, Young's fervent energy and commitment to activism were palpable, as he often utilized concerts to convey his messages. Fun fact: this period marked a significant return to his social activist roots, igniting conversations around sustainability and corporate responsibility, which resonated deeply with fans old and new, making the live rendition of 'Fuckin' Up' an unforgettable statement in his ongoing legacy.
