Neil Young - 2016-07-16 -  Lucca, Italy (FM)

Earlier this month we brought you Neil Young team ed up with fellow Guitar God, Steve Cropper. Today we have Neil paired along with Willie Nelson. While the country legend doesn't usually spring to mind when thinking of the greatest guitarists of all time, Rolling Stone's 2011 listing ranked him at #77. The magazine wrote that "like his conversational singing, Willie Nelson's guitar playing is deceptively laid back, playfully offbeat and instantly recognizable. Amazingly, Nelson has been playing the same Martin M-20 classical guitar, nicknamed Trigger, since 1969; it has defined his sound, a nylon-stabbing mix of country, blues and Django Reinhardt's gypsy jazz. Though the guitar now has a large gaping hole, Nelson still plays it nightly. "I have come to believe we were fated for each other," he said. "The two of us even look alike. We are both pretty battered and bruised." This FM broadcast captures Neil and Willie, who co-founded Farm Aid along with John Mellencamp, in Italy on July 17, 2016, just 1 year ago today.
