Today’s Music Monday celebrates the birthday of Farm Aid co-founder and board artist Neil Young! It’s been an amazing year for his fans this year, as he’s been very active. In addition to performing on tour with Crazy Horse (including September’s Farm Aid concert), he’s written an autiobiography called Waging Heavy Peace, was featured in Jonathan Demme’s film Neil Young Journeys, and released two records: Americana, an album of folk standards; and Psychedelic Pill, a two-disc album that’s the first collection of original music by Neil Young and Crazy Horse in almost a decade.
So, to celebrate all that, let’s go back to a Neil Young and Crazy Horse performance from Farm Aid 1994 which was held in New Orleans, Louisiana on September 18. Check out the seven songs in this playlist, including, "Country Home," "Change Your Mind," "Down by the River," "Farmer John," "Homegrown," "Piece of Crap," and "All Along the Watchtower."
Our YouTube channel has over 600 Farm Aid videos. Which one is your favorite?
