Neil Young + Promise of the Real - Rockin' In The Free World Live at Farm Aid
In September 2016, Neil Young performed 'Rockin' In The Free World' at Farm Aid, a poignant event he's been a part of since its inception in 1985. Just before this live recording, he released 'Earth' in 2016, an experimental album infused with themes of environmental awareness, showcasing his ever-evolving artistry. This performance with Promise of the Real was especially electrifying, as the band shared a deep musical chemistry with Young, evident in their dynamic stage presence. Plus, it's fascinating to note that Young's commitment to farm aid—a cause close to his heart—aligns beautifully with his broader narrative of activism and social consciousness. This moment captures not just nostalgia, but also his undying spirit to advocate for change through his music.
