Video: Neil Young Plays ‘Pocahontas,’ ‘Mr. Soul,’ ‘Long May You Run’ & More in Winnipeg – Jan. 16, 2014

Neil Young via Winnipeg Free Press.

Last night Neil Young performed the second of his four-show Honor the Treaties tour at the Centennial Concert Hall in Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada.

Reviewing the show in the Winnipeg Free Press, Jen Zoratti wrote: “…there were only supporters in the house that night, and Young let the music speak for him in an intimate, solo-acoustic show that shone in its quietest, creakiest moments. With his face obscured by his now-iconic black hat, the Canadian icon reminded us just why he’s one of the best songwriters the world has known. He kicked it old school in a set that spent a lot of time revisiting his commercial peak of the 1970s, playing classic after classic.”

Exclusive: Neil Young and Jack White Collaborate for New Covers Album

Neil Young emerges from Jack White’s 1947 Voice-o-Graph vinyl record recording booth.

In April of last year Neil Young was in Nashville and he recorded Bert Jansch’s “Needle of Death” at the Third Man Recording Booth on Record Store Day.

What I’ve now confirmed is that Young and White have recorded an entire album together, according to a source associated with the project. The album will be released on Third Man Records, and probably Warner Bros, as well.

In December 2013, the Neil Young website Thrasher’s Wheat had these quotes from a source: “It is an album of covers. In it, as anticipated, he pays tribute to other renowned singer-songwriters. There are 12 tracks on it. There are no Neil Young originals…”

It is likely that the album will include “Needle of Death,” as well as Phil Ochs “Changes” Bob Dylan’s “Blowin’ in the Wind,” Gordon Lightfoot’s “Early Morning Rain,” Ivory Joe Hunter’s “Since I Met You Baby” and Tim Hardin’s “Reason To Believe,” songs that Young played at the 2013 Farm Aid concert.

Young Played “Changes” and “Needle Of Death” during his recent Carnegie Hall shows, and at Massey Hall in Toronto on January 12, 2014.

The Time Machine: Bob Dylan & Neil Young at San Francisco’s Kezar Stadium

This is ragged and a bit of a mess, but wonderful.

Bob Dylan and Neil Young at the S.N.A.C.K. (Students Need Athletics, Culture and Kicks) Benefit Concert at Kezar Stadium, Golden Gate Park, San Francisco, CA, March 23, 1975. Young, with the Stray Gators — Ben Keith and Tim Drummond – performs with Dylan, and the Band’s Rick Danko, Garth Hudson and Levon Helm.

They perform “Helpless” which flows right into “Knockin’ On Heaven’s Door.”
