  • Thanks for SUBSCRIBING! Transfered with a modest HD upscale from a well loved VHS bootleg this #neilyoung acoustic show from his Beacon Theatre residency in '92 captures some great Neil moments. From Neil shaking fan's hands with a "Nice to meet you" to later pleading with out of time clappers to knock it off is all bonus to the legendary tracks he masterfully performs with the ease and charisma of a great artist. Unfortunately the tape dies after he tries to start You and Me. Want the rest? Should I perform surgery on the cassette tape? Let me know in the comments!

    Excerpt from NY Times By Karen Schoemer Feb. 15, 1992:
    "When Neil Young plays acoustic guitar, his body language speaks as loudly as his words. He never stops moving. At the Beacon Theater on Thursday night, performing the first of six solo acoustic shows, Mr. Young spent most of his set sitting down, but his body was always rocking slowly back and forth. His boot struck the floor in an easy front-porch rhythm, and his left hand made a strumming motion even when it wasn't actually hitting the strings. Mr. Young's acoustic style is like no one else's. In a single sweep he controls percussion, rhythm and melody, his thumb striking a bass note that resonates through the entire chord, his fingers picking delicate notes off the high strings. He is hushed, but never static.
    Mr. Young's acoustic shows are the latest installment in his singularly unpredictable career: a mere number of months after releasing "Weld," the heavy-grunge live album from his "Ragged Glory" tour, and its companion piece, "Arc," (both on Reprise), a 35-minute opus of feedback and electric guitar distortion, he has flipped to the other side of the coin. With the exception of a few old favorites like "Heart of Gold," "Long May You Run," "Sugar Mountain" and a version of "After the Gold Rush" played on an ornate antique organ, his set was devoted exclusively to new material from a coming album titled "Harvest Moon," intended as a sequel to his 1972 album "Harvest."
    Like much of "Harvest," the new songs had a gentle, rustic feel, flavored with both country and folk. But where his early lyrics often leaned toward obscure imagery, these were as plain-spoken and direct as anything he's ever done. For someone as infamously outspoken and political-minded as Mr. Young, lines like, "When we were strangers I watched you from afar/Now that we're lovers I love you with all my heart," from "Harvest Moon," have an emotional resonance few songwriters could pull off. As he sang, his fingers struck muted tones on the guitar; the notes fell like stars."

      Nope! Just vacation time sucking away my ambition! Had to get this one out of the way since the tape might have seen its last pass and the Neil/Crowd stuff is priceless
