Description
Neil Young & Crazy Horse’s concerts on March 6th and 7th, 1970 at New York’s Fillmore East have been the subject of legend for decades. The nights featured Young with the original line-up of Crazy Horse: Danny Whitten (guitar, vocals), Ralph Molina (drums, vocals), Billy Talbot (bass) and Jack Nitzsche (electric piano), performing at the very peak of their powers.
Those two nights are among the only officially recorded shows of the band with these members, and as the debut release of the Neil Young Archives Performance Series, the album Live At The Fillmore East is set for release.
Live At The Fillmore East has been the subject of devotion among Neil Young followers since the shows themselves in 1970, when Young and Whitten’s duelling guitars were credited as one of the best match-ups in rock history. As heard on these six songs from those concerts, they perfectly illustrate exactly why. Joined by producer-arranger legend Jack Nitzsche on electric piano, a sometimes member of Crazy Horse, the Fillmore East shows are a landmark in Young’s unequalled musical career.
The DVD includes a Hi-Res Stereo version of the album, along with rare photos from the concert, Young’s handwritten song lyrics, archival press articles and other rare memorabilia and documents relating to the concerts and this period of Neil Young’s career.
