Neil Young – Down By The River

This is a live performance by Neil Young doing the song “Down By The River”. The performance is from the Farm Aid show which is a charity show.
The song is available on the album “Everybody Knows This Is Nowhere” which Neil Young did with the band Crazy Horse. This album was originally released in 1969.
I really love the song and the simple folk feeling it has. I love how Neil Young plays this solo with just him and his battered up old Les Paul. It sounds so good and genuine.

Enjoy ; )

This is a performance from rock icon Neil Young playing his classic song "Cinnamon Girl". The song was released in 1969 on Young's album "Everybody Knows This Is Nowhere" which was also his first album with the backing band "Crazy Horse".
The song is known for it's sung harmony of Young's low-pitch voice, and on the original recording a second higher pitched voice sung by Danny Whitten. It is also famous for the catchy guitar riff that drives the song throughout. It is written in Double Drop D tuning on the guitars, and gives it the lower sound of the top and bottom strings on the guitar.
It's a great live performance, and Young performs 100 % and still does to this day, what a great performer and musician.
