Damn. One thing about Neil; he plays guitar in perpetual motion. Never have seen anyone that can play & move like he does; even from way back when he was with Crosby Stills, Nash &Young. Always be my #1 rockstar; Mr. Young; since the glorius 70's. Cheers!
@@steveclapper5424Love his playing. You think he is making a mistake but that’s just him. I used to laugh when my “guitarist” buddies said he sucks. I always said they just wished they suck that bad.
First time I heard Neil I was hit hiking through New Mexico a guy picked me up we smoked a joint and he put Neil young into the cassette deck in his old van it blew my mind he let me off in the middle of nowhere in the middle of the night it was surreal to say the least just one more experience on the hippie trail !
Everytime I listen and watch these videos I want to go out to the club and listen to music. And then I think. Wait ain't gonna hear music like this too much anymore......
This is why Neil Young is one of the greatest of all time. Nobody puts as much passion and emotion into his performance as he does. When other musicians catch that "vibe" it becomes EPIC. This drummer is no different. I LOVE Neil Young!
The coolest thing is that he's playing like this even today. I just watched a concert he gave with Crazy Horse last year at age 75! Memo to Neil: Keep shredding till you're a 100! What a legend!
I remember working as a stage manager for local promoter in my town back in the late 70s, during the Rust Never Sleeps Tour. It was in October during the World Series. After sound check, instead of rubbing elbows with the media, label big shots, A&R people and 'hangers on', Neil came into the crew room and asked if he could watch the game with us. Well, duh! Yeah. What an incredibly humble and down to earth human being- with so fucking much talent.i still have the play list he scribbled.
Niel Young is a true musician, he never got caught up in the fame, money, and the ego that most artists have now days. It's all about the tone. Neil is a legend.
Outstanding, to Neil Young and the other guitarists and also to all the band, drums, organ, backround singers. Thank you to all of you, what a wonderful performance.
@denisestickel6288 - Just to stick a pin in it, let’s mention the band. It’s Booker T and the MG’s, a band that has been around since about 1962, and the originators of the unique Stax Sound. With the exception of Booker T. Jones, the band members have changed over the years, but all members have always been among the cream of the crop. In the video are Booker T. Jones on the Hammond Organ, Steve Cropper on guitar, the late Donald “Duck” Dunn on bass and Steve Potts on drums. It hardly gets better. I had the distinct pleasure to have a beer with Mr. Jones in a bar at San Francisco International Airport around 1965 (I was underage, he was just old enough). This was a couple of years after his hit “Green Onions”. He was great to talk to and real nice man to a dumb kid, even though I was only three years younger than him. The backup singers… Peggi Young, Neil’s late wife and Amber Young, Neil’s daughter.
I love seeing each breathe he takes and exhales in the cold air as a white vapor escapes into the night. It is like a spirit of words here and gone in an instant never to repeated the same way again.................
The kids today don't know how lucky they are to be exposed to great music so easily thru IT , us 60 + had to find out thru word of mouth and music papers and books then had to save up pocket money and buy one record a week !!!!! Then maybe lend out records never to get them back !!! LONG LIVE ROCK
yes! and just as hard in new zealand, at least you had live venues there and actual bands! my 2nd yr in high school i started babystting for a couple who had 1st record collection i ever met.. it was 1972 and they even had zeppelin, i couldn't get there fast enough after school on thursdays, .. our tv had one b/w programme per week 1969-71 where overseas pop artists were 'covered' by a couple of bands, a few singers, and some dancing girls ... i laugh so much thinking about back then, comparing it with whats available to kids today
Not seeing him live yet is my most foolish mistake. No one can play guitar like him - pure emotion, he knows that traditional technique is but one of many tools and so he is truly free to create with no inhibitions. Wherever the song's emotions go is where he takes the guitar, every time.
Every person truly would like to perform such a iconic Song , sung by the most famous Song writers and Guitar players , Along the Watch Tower is only for the best of Artists that can knock this performance of out of the Park , Neil Young simply shows his most divine brilliance of true Artistry, his Guitar performance is surely his heart and soul . Give our True Canadian artist a show of applause to the Greatest ever born with also past performers of our time in Canada. Thank you Neil Young , Outstanding Life and Career you have brought to all in understanding your true Fame , Talents, and your Heritage. Proud to knowing a icon like yourself .🇨🇦 Incredibly a Gift to one of the Greatest Rock performers of our time. Bravo Bravo Bravo.
He's not lost in the music; he becomes the music. Neil becomes every note, every riff, every measure, every lyric and every wail of the guitar. A man possessed. Rock it brother...
I really enjoyed his music when I was university student, early of 20th. Still now, neil young is one of greatest musicians in the 20th century and hope to keep going his wonderful plays. Thanks for bob dylan and neil young.
This song as many have been in the past 6 months every day i discover a diamond a gold nugget from neils treasurr of songs, how can you describe genius or a master at his craft people need to realize how special man is, he can play any type off music and delivered performances that are breath taking, no one else is comparable, his the top of the pyramid ❤
All Along The Watchtower is my favorite all time rock song as created and performed by Dylan and, in my opinion, perfected by Hendrix. This version led by Neil’s heart, soul, passion and skill, brings tears to my eyes with a heavenly rendition that honors the prior artist’s performances with his trademark professionalism paying great homage!
When I was a kid in my 20s I thought, "Neil is a terrible lead player." One day when I was a little more mature I thought "But doggone, his guitar is totally distinctive...you can always identify it." Now I think it's brilliant work. But it took me a few decades to get here 🎸
@@louispatenaude2252 Don't forget Jimi. I count him as a co-author, he changed it that much. If it weren't for Jimi most people would never have heard this song 🎸
My neighbors loooooooove this....they just threw a brick through my window to hear it better!
I like your neighbors already
I'm that guy to
Sort of hard Rock for Neil
😂
I’m a crazy fan of Neil Young and mostly playing this Dylan’s song.
Neil Young the one and only he is the best. I LOVE listening to him I'll listen to him forever. ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I've been in love with and listening to Neil young for 53 years now. Nobody else comes even close to the feeling I get from him. Love you Neil
So, your are my competition. Now, I know. 🙃
I've seen him live he's a musical wizard
Neil Young, my hero forever! First I saw him on TV in 1972.
This is rocking at its finest .What a national treasure Neil has become.
Good combo, Neil rocking to Dylan!

It is fake, useless git could not play a note.
And there are no doubts about who is playing.

The music that accompanied me for the last 50 or so years. We are blessed. Thank you Neil.
Is that Donald Duck Dunn on bass?
Right up there with Traffic and the Allman’s!
WOW, I forgot how much I loved Neil!
They took this tune to the HIGHEST level . This is absolutely ☢️☢️Nuclear ☢️☢️!!!
Incredible performance by the whole band, they were really on that night.
the eternal paradox of Neil Young: the man who can go from soulful ballad to grunge in the twinkling of an eye!!
Perfect musician x
The best.
He's a peasant, no more.

I am with bro!
Exactly. He’s covering the Hendrix version of the Dylan song. Love it.
Proving it’s not the amount of notes you hit but the energy behind the music…damn shred right here !
Neil Young is a badass.
Neil invited me in for a beer when i took him room service at the Dayton Beach Hilton in 1980 somthing. Cool Dude.
I'm grateful I found this before I died.
me too !!!!!!!
Hope you will live for a long time because of hearing this good music very often 👍
From southern man on 4 way street to this? Neil you've been so damn good for so long! What an honor listening to you!

Going to a Neil Young concert is like going to another universe for the night
Look at this man. He's in love with his job and in love with his spirit. That's why we love him. So much.

I never could understand what all the fuss was about him. TO each HIS OWN
Shakey.... fucking legend. And don't give a fuck. Love Neil Young.
Neil is talent, genius and LEGEND!!!
Fame, money and ego is American.
Oh yeah, Neil has no ego.
This is fucking GOLD, you young guys out there, this is how it’s done, damn it.
You got that right
Thank you utube
He put on a workshop.
you got that right! Neil Young, from Toronto, Ontario Canada!
Neil debería ser patrimonio de la humanidad
My favourite guitar thug, at it again! One of the GOATs.
Thanks , Neil you is you..... An original....a bad man.
I love this so much...
an incredible version of one of the greatest rock songs in history..
Outstanding, to Neil Young and the other guitarists and also to all the band, drums, organ, backround singers. Thank you to all of you, what a wonderful performance.
@denisestickel6288 - Just to stick a pin in it, let’s mention the band.
It’s Booker T and the MG’s, a band that has been around since about 1962, and the originators of the unique Stax Sound.
With the exception of Booker T. Jones, the band members have changed over the years, but all members have always been among the cream of the crop. In the video are Booker T. Jones on the Hammond Organ, Steve Cropper on guitar, the late Donald “Duck” Dunn on bass and Steve Potts on drums. It hardly gets better.
I had the distinct pleasure to have a beer with Mr. Jones in a bar at San Francisco International Airport around 1965 (I was underage, he was just old enough). This was a couple of years after his hit “Green Onions”. He was great to talk to and real nice man to a dumb kid, even though I was only three years younger than him.
The backup singers… Peggi Young, Neil’s late wife and Amber Young, Neil’s daughter.
Спасибо за интересные подробности❤
Greatest song ever, no matter who is doing the cover. Neil is one of my favorite covers because of the sound of his beautiful guitar sound.
Dear lord. Wish I could have been there. Words fail me. That was sublime.
This is phenomenal. Neil is just great. He puts everything into it.
Excelente música
Neil was playing grunge,before the term had been invented.
When the music giants play. That's how it sounds forever.
Neil played that like he lived it. must have been a blast for the Booker T cats.
Let it rip neil nice !!!!
I never really appreciated how powerful this song was until I heard Neil Young play it live
Its been powerful for over nearly 60 years since Bob wrote it and Jimi took ownership
still watching today such a great artist
this is the greatest live rock performance of all time-watching this sends shivers up my spine
Wauw, dankjewel. Dit is waar het om gaat!!!
What a emotional guitar play! The best cover of ALL ALONG THE WATCHTOWER.
I’ve played along the Tower since age 11. U2’. The Edge’
Yes I'm sure we can both see Jimmy smileimg
@@charlesking617 amen to that bro 🎸 👍 😄 😎 🙏 💕, play on jimi, man hendrix was so far ahead, they are still playing catch up 👆 😂 😍

thats nicely said
Friggin' poetic in the cooler night air. For sure
This is a fantastic "Neil Young version" of a fantastic song from an amazing songwriter, further given meaning by a legendary guitarplayer/singer.
The best version of this song!
And that Ladies and Gentlemen is how it is done ❤️
That's the question: how could he create such music ?
'niel. Youg. Restera à. Jamais
Dans. La. Pop. Rock... Forever !!!.??...

Yeah, but local music isn't thriving like it used to, live I mean. It's no longer an average weekend to go see live music for most people.
Real music with real backup artists real lead and real soul. Miss those days.
What a " genius" interpretation " All along the watchtower. " Mr Young on his best!
A strong musical building.!
"PHENOMENAL!!!" "LOVE YOU", NEIL!!! Always ~ Joanne♡
Let us enjoy the passion and talent of this living legend while he and we still can. Just unreal!
There’s no way this tune could ever be played loud enough!

Dylan gave birth to this great song and Young took it over the top. What a great masterpiece, Thanks you guys.
Harvest is still my favorite album…1972 was a blast while in the airforce in Tucson @DM.

Such a great song. I miss Canada 🇨🇦 haha. Peace and love ❤️ and joy.8888
That brutal, raw, guitar sound is unmistakeably Neil and only Neil. Making myself deaf on it since I could play it back in 1972.
Zanthxs um. Yup. Neal young is the ultimate poet and rocker, even Dylan and the late great sir John acknowledge so.LoveLoveLoveIS
Correction: Neil and Old Black. Love the way the roadie brings him out like the holy grail...
Zanthxs, what better to deafen yourself with ???!!!
Yep, he sounds like a drunk, wounded wildebeest looking for his car keys... but in a good way.
Twanggggg guitar hard strokes, Neil energy personified.
Only a guitar God can play like this!
There is a rumor of a Holy Chord...maybe he's searching.
I don't know if I watch the dead or the dead watch me. For ever keep rocking in the free workd
This song as many have been in the past 6 months every day i discover a diamond a gold nugget from neils treasurr of songs, how can you describe genius or a master at his craft people need to realize how special man is, he can play any type off music and delivered performances that are breath taking, no one else is comparable, his the top of the pyramid ❤
Forever one of my favorite musicians. Keep on rocking in the free world.
kick ass! 💚💜
that is a definite ripping it- thx for your soul Neil! and why we need music
Neil, always said Jimi was the Greatest, but Neil is the Greatest in his own Style!!!
Jimi said Rory was the best but they were 3 guitar gods In their own style. Outstanding .
Is there anything that this man can’t do in music? What an icon !
Whenever I think I need a haircut, I'm inspired by good ol' Neil. Still living the life, Neil!
I have watched this time and time again and never tire of it, Neil is genius. 👍

Thank you Neil!! You are one fine shredder!! 🤘
I am really shocked. Thats the best Coverversion from my favorite Hendrixsong I have ever heard in my Life . I would throw more than one brick.🥰
except it is a dylan song ;-)
Some people play music, people like Neil Young the music plays through them.
