Neil Young - Mother Earth (Live at Farm Aid 1990)

Neil Young performs "Mother Earth" live at the Farm Aid concert in Indianapolis, Indiana on April 7th, 1990. Farm Aid was started by Willie Nelson, Neil Young and John Mellencamp in 1985 to keep family farmers on the land and has worked since then to make sure everyone has access to good food from family farmers. Dave Matthews joined Farm Aid's board of directors in 2001.

Farm Aid's performances are donated by the artists in order to raise funds and raise awareness for family farmers. They've raised their voices to help - what can you do?

I've listened to this a million times, this sound of guitar is just beyond anything I've ever heard. I'd say "goosebumps" but to me it's like 1000 times more than goosebumps means, I have no words for this

[@88napolitano]

I was there.You could just feel the energy Neil gave off.It was so fucking awesome!A great memory.

[@neilbunting8129]

Me 2) Guns N' Roses did on the farm = GREAT

[@andywatt2376]

The best that legendary guitar has sounded. It is perfect.

[@mrduckspeak]

As it happens, that's Neil's No2 guitar, not "Old Black" - but I know what you mean! :)

[@F3FisGoodforYou]

The sound is just out of this world, just fantastic.

[@theunknownpoet.5767]

I enjoyed this so much. I remember the way the 1st chord filled up the 'room'. Neil Young is sort of the the odd guide that I keep running into on the trail.

[@joshuatrees797]

It is so easy to fall in love with his raw and genuine emotion.

[@tl7260]

Goosebumps.....the music...the lyrics....isn´t this world ruled by greed? FTS. So touching...

[@dublinboyo]

Saw him do this song the same month and year at a enviromental benefit at the Santa Monica Civic Auditorium on a one off bill with CSN&Y. Heavy stuff and I never forgot it.

[@Martine1love]

Fabulous!!!

[@NeoViny]

This will never get old....what a wonderful song...

[@harryprufert2138]

Du hast so rechNeilt, denn es liegt in unserer Hand unserer Erde, Welt und das Leben zu erhalten, die Natur ist göttlich, unser Planet einzigartig, vielleicht sogar einmalig ....

[@EarthtonesCymbals]

Now more than ever.

[@kieransoregaard-utt8]

In these uncertain times….out of an abundance of caution….we’re in this together….

[@yoshimisang3317]

This is a song @ that used to inspiring someone or somebody to " take good care of Mother Earth "🙂

[@lilrolterBigBluesMama]

The incredible sound of Neil Young! ... BBM ♪♫ *¨*•

[@jamic3911]

Saw him rip this on the pipe organ last week. This is a sick rendition but I think I like the organ feel a bit better.

[@markgrunzweig6377]

That Les paul, '53 gold top really sustains even in just G and not D Modal!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@jasonmorris3533]

And that distortion is sooooooo thick and just dirty lol.. Good stuff.. I'm gonna look up what he's using for that gain

[@Walkinamaze]

beautiful

[@marciliopereira5878]

(*) Neil Young é incrível, porém já assisti apresentações muito melhores do que essa de 1990.
Tem uma apresentação de Neil de 1990 ou 1992 em que ele destrói simplesmente... show!
Foi no Madison Square Garden, naquele Tributo aos 30 anos de Bob Dylan!!

[@janjansen960]

Great effort Neil. I love you.

[@ironfist440]

❤❤❤

[@stormbringercoming8105]

This is infinitely better than the overdubbed version on Ragged Glory. It’s good enough as without the “sweetener”.

[@greglapointe1311]

The traditional The Water is Wide given an electric facelift by Neil.

Neil for president!

[@lsdecaria1]

Like sweetness to my ears

[@diamondrhyme]

Just the best

[@GrumpyBand]

He just rewrote the guitarist handbook. Awesome!!

[@bmojo7118]

He just made an old song better- much better- Gotta love NY.

[@Bryan8329]

Neil's mother (to whom this was written) made the same comparison, not favorably so either lol
