Willie Nelson - 1979-08-18 - Sedalia, Missouri (SBD)

I've seen Willie Nelson live on one occasion, on September 2, 1978 when he led in for the Grateful Dead at Giants Stadium, just the 3rd concert ever performed at that venue. Actually, it was supposed to be Waylon Jennings and Willie, but the former no showed the concert. Willie didn't let that stop him from getting us fired up for the main event with a perfromance as hot at the weather that day.

The same year I saw him in concert, Willie released the album Stardust. where he covered 10 legendary pop standards, such as the title track, Georgia on My Mind, Blue Skies and September Song. Stardust received rave critical reviews, and went to # 1 on the Billboard Country charts, as well as #30 on the magazine's top 200 album chart.  This soundboard recording captures Willie a year later,  on tour in support of that disc, on August 18, 1979, 47 years ago today.

Farm Aid - 1992-03-14 - Irving, TX (TV SBD)

1990s - #5: On September 22, 1985, Neil Young, Willie Nelson & John Mellencamp, inspired by Bob Dylan's pleas at Live Aid to help the family farmer in America, launched Farm Aid intending to do just that! That first concert, which was held at the University of Illinois, attracted 80,000 fans and raised over $9 million. Over the past 4 decades, the effort has raised well over $75 million to help America's family farms while also serving a a key organization to raise awareness of the importance and plight of those farmers. This TV SBD recording captures highlights from Farm Aid 1992, held in Texas, on March 14, 1990, 3 dozen years ago today. The line up is filled with rock and roll hall of famers, including the 3 founders!

2020s - #2: The 2023 Rock & Roll Hall of Fame Induction ceremony continued to see the institution widen its net beyond classic rock, with inductees such as country legend Willie Nelson, and hip hop star Missy Elliot. The Hall also recognized lyricist Bernie Taupin, whose work with Elton John produced countless hit tunes, and TV host Don Cornelius, who created Soul Train, perhaps the first show to specifically focus on African American culture, music and dance.  Sheryl Crow was all over the ceremony, playing 3 of her tunes, with guest appearances by Olivia Rodrigo, Stevie Nicks and Peter Frampton, joining Willie Nelson for Crazy, and taking a verse of The Weight during the tribute to Robbie Robertson.  

This TV soundboard recording captures the musical highlights from that ceremony on November 3, 2023, 2 years ago today. A complete list of inductees is provided below.

Note - while the sound quality is generally excellent, some extraneous noise can be heard during Neil's set.

Farm Aid - 1985-09-22 - Champaign, IL (AM, FM, SBD)

Today we bring you highlights of the first Farm Aid, held in Champaign, IL, 4 decades ago today.  We've used AM, FM and TV soundboard sources to bring you as much of the show as possible, so many artists that I couldn't list them all in the labels accompanying the post.  We even have Bob Dylan's appearance alongsideTom Petty.  It was, of course, Dylan's somewhat controversial comments at Live Aid that prompted Neil Young, Willie Nelson and John Mellencamp to embark on this 40 year old venture known as Farm Aid that has raised almost $80 million to supoport the American family farmer.  You can donate here.
