On this DVD, Young puts on a flawless show that includes
his excellent guitar work (don't forget the harmonica) and
nice, amusing little asides.
The one where mic feedback squeals has him telling the audience
he's had a special line put in to talk to his dad in Canada.
A second squeal has him saying: "That's him now."
Powderfinger will always be one of my favourite Young
songs and if everytime I hear "Look out Mama there's a white
boat coming up the river" I go into a trance and start strumming
an imaginary electric guitar as the images of America's south
flood to mind.
Daddy Went Walking is a sensational bit of country
that, to me, is the type of Young's music I like. Catchy,
almost boppy, you can just see it being sung around a campfire
or at a country dance.
Walk On is a great syncopated rendition of the classic,
Harvest Moon is at its acoustic best, Tonight's
the Night begins with an amazing piano intro from Young
and then the vocals kick in with a bluesy accompaniment.
The transfer is really sharp and clear with dark, but atmospheric
lighting. There are few highlight burn-outs and the close-in
images have you thinking you are in row 2.
This DVD is not just for Neil Young fans, but anyone who
may like to see a great rock performer showing his stuff.
