How did I miss Neil Young? Must have been fantastic.

It was great. But I miscalculated when I said several years ago. My husband said it was more like 8 years. So I looked it up and it was 12 years ago😹. The older I get the faster time seems to go. But the concert was amazing. It was Neil alone, no band, just him and his guitars and harmonica. It seems like it was yesterday. I keep hoping he will come back. But I don’t know if he is still touring.

Checked around — no tour dates announced for this year. But his website is excellent. A study in nostalgia. Recommend the streaming documentary with Crazy Horse. "Barn: A Band, A Brotherhood, A Barn." https://neilyoungarchives.com/movie-night/subscriber-features

Speaking of nostalgia...when I was in college, my roommate and I found out when "Harvest" was being released. It was February 1972, the year we graduated. We bought it at a record store (remember those!) the first day it was available. A masterpiece then, and just as good today.

Thank you for the link. I will check it out. I love Harvest and had the record also. Now of course it’s on my play list. Speaking more of nostalgia.. I grew up in the San Francisco Bay Area and saw Neil and Crazy Horse several times at the Fillmore an Winterland, Also when he was with Crosby Stills Nash as well as many other great bands. My husband tells me to quit bragging about it, but I was just in the right place at the right time.

Great memories. I played the “Everbody Knows This Is Nowhere” album so many times that I swear every lyric and note are hard-wired in me.

If you have Amazon Prime there are several Neil Young movies on it. Neil Young Journeys and Heart of Gold are 2 of them that I love, if you haven’t already seen them.

Same here. As soon as I started reading the name of the song on your post, it became the song in my head.
