CROSBY STILLS NASH & YOUNG Tribute to Neil Young Bootleg David Crosby, Graham Nash, Steven Stills, Neil Young
|
Manic Depression was one of those Italian labels that appeared at the
end of the '80s selling hard-to-find live concerts on CDs for the first
time. This was among the earliest CSNY CD bootlegs with a professionally
designed cover and quite a nice selection of rarities all in very good
sound. The main part of this bootleg was a CSNY concert from June of 1970 that is supposedly at Lakehurst in New Jersey. It is a nice soundboard with very good to excellent sound. The label wanted to showcase Neil Young's talents from the beginning and included early demos, work with his band The Squires and Buffalo Springfield. Whoever was the source offered pretty high quality tapes, the seven 1965 demos that Young will hopefully release on his archive set and even a couple of Buffalo Springfield acetates and demos. Even Buffalo Springfield's performance at Monterey Pop, left off the official release, shows up here. This incomplete show has never been released even after 40 years. Only one track, For What It's Worth, was finally released in June 2007 on a Razor & Tie Monterey Pop collection. The CSNY show has seven Young songs out of the show's 18. The Young medley of The Loner, Cinnamon Girl and Down By The River boasted his talent as guitarist and soloist. The 13-minute long Southern Man closed the show in fine hard rock tradition. With Neil Young, CSN gained a harder sound to offset their folky image. Consider Tribute To Neil Young a fan's dream of what his archive release will be. This was a great start to the CD bootleg era. Thanks to the folks at Manic Depression, whoever you are. - The Little Chicken Disc I CSNY 01 Suite: Judy Blue Eyes 02 Blackbird 03 On The Way Home 04 Teach Your Children 05 Tell Me Why 06 The Loner Medley: The Loner/ Cinnamon Girl/ Down By The River 07 Black Queen 08 49 Bye-Byes/ For What It's Worth 09 Love The One You're With 10 As I Come Of Age 11 Pre-Road Downs 12 Long Time Gone 13 4 And 20 [live at Big Sur, April 1, 1969] Disc II CSNY 01 Helplessly Hoping 02 Ohio 03 Southern Man Neil Young unreleased 1965 demos 04 Sugar Mountain 05 Nowadays Clancy Can't Even Sing 06 Run Around Babe 07 Don't Pity Me Babe 08 I Ain't Got The Blues 09 The Rent Is Always Due 10 When It Falls It Falls Over You Buffalo Springfield 11 Down To The Wire [1967 Gold Star acetate] 12 Do I Have To Come Right Out And Say It [1967 Gold Star acetate] 13 There Goes My Babe [1966 demo released on Buffalo Springfield boxset] 14 One More Sign [1966 demo released on Buffalo Springfield boxset] The Squires from 1963 15 Sultan 16 Aurora Buffalo Springfield live at Monterey Pop Festival, June 17-18, 1967.
