Neil Young

In July 2016, Neil Young performed "Saddle Up The Palomino" live in Leipzig, marking its first appearance since 1986. Just before this show, Young released the studio album "Earth" in 2016, where he presented his signature folk-rock style infused with environmental themes. The album's release came amid Young's ongoing activism—whether advocating for the planet or Indigenous rights. His willingness to revisit older tracks like "Saddle Up The Palomino" during this performance highlights his deep connection to his extensive catalog and reflects a career that’s always been about more than just music; it’s about storytelling and social commentary. Fans were treated not only to nostalgia but also to a glimpse of an artist who continues to evolve while honoring his roots.
