Neil Young - 1986-10-20 - Columbus, OH (SBD)

Neil 1986 - Back To Back - #1: Neil Young, unlike The Who, The Stones and Pink Floyd,  didn’t vanish for a good chuck of the 1980s - it only seemed that way! In 1979, Neil was at the top of the rock world, as he was honored as artist of the year for his album Rust Never Sleeps. The disc, which is clearly some of Neil's finest work, was also recognized as album of the year. Yet, on the heels of that masterpiece, Neil would enter one of the least productive periods of his career. To put it mildly, the early 1980's were not the best of times musically for Neil Young. After signing on with Geffen Records, he released a series of albums that were baffling to fans and critics alike. From Trans in 1982, an experiment in electronic music, to Everybody's Rockin' in 1983, a rockabilly album with the Shocking Pinks, to Old Ways in 1985, a country music disc, Neil's run of releases were hardly the stuff folks had come to know and love. In fact, his own record label sued him for making music that was "unrepresentative of himself". By late 1986, Neil finally began to emerge from this experimental stage of his career, reuniting with Crazy Horse for Live In A Rusted Out Garage tour. With the Horse at his side, Neil again was stomping around on stage, playing the fierce, ragged, searing music that had become his hallmark, as evidenced in this soundboard recording from Columbus form October 20 1986, 37 years ago today. Downlaod this one, then come back the next  3 days for parts 2, 3, and 4 of this Back To Back set.
