got to film one of my heros, Neil Young. he absolutely crushed this DBTR....go neil! and enjoy! shot by runme69 (JFI Productions) and helped immensely by the blests, ash, chris, and chappell
Every note from Neil Young is THE perfect note in that moment. Accept no substitute...because there simply isn't one. This man has more passion in his big toe nail than the rest can hope for in a lifetime.Rust never sleeps!
I smoked my first joint in my bedroom by my fireplace to Down by the River in the early 70"s. I have seen him live three times..last time was at Chastain Park in Atlanta and at the end of the concert I was drunk and ran down thru the bleachers screaming let me thtu..let me thru..let me thru until I I got to the stage crying and screamed I have loved you all my life and I reached out my hand and he squeezed it and we let go...I'll never be the same again..!!! I'll never wash my hand ever again..!!
What a killer kool as hell story. Lucky you. Just saw him at Atlanta May 7th & with Crazy Horse to boot. My 1st live show. OMG, it was absolutely the very best night of my life. Been waiting 50 years. I didn't come back down for like 2 weeks. I was like I was in a complete Neil fog & couldn't seem to get anything done. LOL. All I know is....... If I ever get the chance to go see him again........MY ASS WILL DO WHATEVER IT TAKES TO GET IN THE FRONT AS CLOSE AS I CAN FUCKING GET TO NEIL & OLD BLACK. But, I absolutely love your story, cause you gotta be around my age (61&3/4) & I can just imagine running down bleachers, hollering at folks. And him reaching for your hand, I know was PRICELESS. Hell, your lucky he was still there, cause when I just went, after encore, they were gone & roadie's was tearing that shit down within 5 secs. Wanted to take some stage pics,but no. That's alright, it's in my head. Much Love from Lower Alabama.
Nearly 50 years of playing this song and it is fresh, vibrant, intense and magical -- What a groove!!!!! (Although the records are ace - many of NY's songs come alive played live!!
All over again and again. Been Playing, hearing, listening 40+ years. End of 2017. Never, ever, ever gets old. Never will. ROCK ON NEIL YOUNG and THANK You for sharing this on TH-cam with ALL OF US
God Damn look at him!!!!!!! Its not Uncle Neil anymore, its full on Grandpa Neil!!! And he's still completely crushing everything on stage!!!!!!!!! Amazing how he can grab some new blood and energy in PotR and feed off it. Incredible.
And then Bradley Cooper saw them and used them as the live band in "A Star Is Born" up for Oscars and Grammy's. Lukas co-wrote songs for it. P.S.- And that is Willie Nelson's son-Lukas Nelson in the red plaid. ☮
If there was an award for filming a live concert in the audience with near professional results and capturing the EPIC musical magic that transpired you'd win hands down. Almost like you were there ! I close my eyes and I'm hearing and feeling music from the Fillmore back in the day . Thanks man, you did really good !!!
It's the right descriptive words , when Neil young is referred by writers as an Artist and a Legend. "Uncle Neil" has been keeping me occupied enjoying his different interpretations of his creations and I'm still discovering more of his inventory or his soul, in songs in my middle age male life. I guess I can thank in part, agencies like the CRTC, Of Canada for their silly censorship regulations. I was going to take the politics out of my comment and then I remembered how committed Neil is to his world outside of his art...
I was there. If you looked a couple hundred feet to the right of the stage rolling by the festival grass was an unobstructed view of the Mighty Mississippi. Down by the River literally. Simply an awesome experience to take in live. Neil never disappoints. I believe this is the longest DBTR ever done. First verse doesn't kick in until 12 min mark, Lmao! At about 21:14 they ramp it up to a whole other level.
I am 61 and this was written _50 YEARS AGO!_ We are a truly blessed generation. All the great music that came _out every single week-for decades._ DJ's played what they wanted, musicians were paid for their dedication & sacrifices and now we have TH-cam to watch concerts for free.
61 also & yes we are so very blessed for the exceptional music we have gotten to witness before most of music went to shit. They just don't come like this much anymore. It's not the same. We got most of the legends.
Au contraire to those that think the promise of the Real is somehow rookie material. ANYBODY playing with Neil will be second guessed but these guys the real, they're really great! Neil feeds off this youthful energy. I cannot believe it but this rendition is as inspired as it was 45 years ago!! UNBELIEVABLE!! Rock on Neil!!
Cant stop watching this. Neil Young is my hero and Lukas Nelson is talented and young enough to take me to my grave smiling. See you at Floyd Fest in Virginia Lukas with about 35 of my family and friends. friends LOL.
I was there to hear it live, there were some serious good vibes as they opened with this jam and crushed the whole show. I've come back and listened multiple times to enjoy it again and again!
@@vincehenriquez680 I didn't sense any boredom, it just seemed like we were all locked into this as it unfolded. It is sort of mind blowing how they just ripped right into this blistering jam that seemed like it was never going to end (in the best possible way)! I'll never forget that night.
@@vincehenriquez680 I was looking around during the opening jamming to see if the Florence and the Machine fans etc who may not have been diehard Neil fans were understanding what was happening. There was some restlessness and a few quizzical looks because they came out on stage and launched right into this. I think for some around me it went from "what the f?" to "oh, okay, this is pretty cool" once he sang the first verse>>12 min in, lol.
Extremely enthusiastic and so beautifully EXECUTED ❤You GENTLEMAN certainly know how to perform one of the most magical moments of a lifetime.I PERSONALLY CANNOT THANK YOU ENOUGH❤LOVE from Pa.❤
Jeden z nielicznych żyjących geniuszy rocka, tu przykład tego za co go uwielbiamy - wspaniała muzyka grana dłuuuuuuuuuuugooooo , z werrwą.....cudo!!!!!!!!! Wujek Neil wszystkich kochających dobrą muzykę.....:)
WOW..bro..excellent plus on your filming and recording this amazing version. of DBTR...i have always been amazed by Neil in his live shows with Crazy Horse..Buffalo Sprinfield, Stills Young, and CSNY, that i attended, but this takes the cake. Neil is such a beautiful being, and his talent on guitar, piano, and as a singer/sonwriter is off the charts. Thank u so much for filming and recording and posting this.
I was at this epic performance, and needless to say it was mind melting. Cool that someone had the patience and literally the arm strength to film the entire 36 min. First time I ever saw Neil w Promise of the Real. It got me to thinking how many DBTR w different Neil bands I've seen. Multiple times with Crazy Horse. Once w CSNY. Once w Phish as his backing band at Farm Aid (another epic jam version). At least once with the Rick Rosas/Chad Cromwell Restless band. And now w POTR. All different and unique in their own ways. I treasure every one of them. This version was obviously epic and I'm pretty sure its the longest he's ever done. Its probably the "grungiest" and most jamming. I can't say definitively its the "best", because I treasure Neil+Crazy Horse versions. There is a certain galloping rhythmic intensity that the Horse always has on this tune. They leave the space for Neil to solo and they know when to ramp up the distortion and feedback. Some of the versions I have heard from the 1996 tour are shorter (14-18 min) but so intense and crackling its incredible.
Hats off to the greatest grunge guitar player in the world. Bar none! Simply mindblowing . Awesome. Mr. Weber, New Waterford,Ohio. '^ Angel Man ^ ^Boulterontarioman^
Number 1 on my bucket list is to hear this song played live. Saw him several years ago and, to my dismay, it wasn't included in the set. He's now revisiting Australia next April - please, please, please.
I've grown old with Neil. We still have a lot in common. Love to rock. It takes a while to crank it up anymore, but we can still kick some ass. Thanks much for posting.
I remember a woman in the crowd complaining that he wasn't playing his hits as this rendition went on. People were becoming obviously irritated, but thought it better to just smile and nod. So I said, "Hey lady, you want the hits? Go home and put on your head phones. We came to listen to Neil play, not listen to you b*tch and moan." She scoffed and disappeared backward into the massive sea of people. The people near me thanked me, and we went on to enjoy the remaining 31 minutes of music gold in euphoric peace.
Yessss my wife and I decided to return to BSMF in 2016 specifically to see Neil. This was such an amazing show. I was expecting it to be good, but we were blown away by just how excellent Neil still is at his age. Thanks for bringing us back there with this great recording.
That's not Crazy Horse with him here. This video is 8 years old. That's Promise of the Real. Both of Willie's sons are in it. Micah is on the right of Neil & don't see much of him till the end. He is on tour with Neil & The Horse now.
Sorry Joe, not to bring you down, but I think you are thinking that this came from the current tour in which Neil is 78 & Billy & Ralph are 80. BUT this is from like 8 or so years ago & not with Crazy Horse. Regardless, it is OUTSTANDING. The longest version of Down By The River ever, if I'm not mistaken.
Neil Young is the Best Guitar Player in the World.. bar none!! This is as good as it gets, simply mind blowing! If you dont like it, leave the effin country. Signed, "Angel Man". Mr. Weber New Waterford,Ohio.
With Neil's style of playing it's not his technical skills or how many notes he plays...................He plays the RIGHT ones for the tune and each one carries the emotion behind the song.
This jewel was performed literally down by the Mississippi River (a hundred yards away) at the Memphis in May Music Fest -- you can feel the Memphis soul all over this one!
Yep, I was there. So cool to just turn my head to the right a few times during this epic jam and watch Ol Muddy rolling by. One of my most priceless experiences I've had in my concert going life.
Wow...the YT algo sent this one to me today...love it. Many thanks for your efforts in filming the entire thing, I know that was not easy, especially when everyone else was rocking out...what a jam...!!!
Neil said one time he wasn't going to do this song anymore. Then when Ben Keith died he said for sure he wasn't doing it anymore. Obviously, after this rendition, what he meant was he ain't doing it the the way he's done it before! They stretched this out and absolutely crushed it! Keep on pushin' ahead Neil! Thanks for the whole post!
I think the song he wouldn't play again was "Old Man" because Ben Keith played such beautiful steel guitar on the song. Could be wrong but he's play DBTR many times since Ben's death.
Slow burn shredding ! Cool marathon build up ! Thanks so much, runme 69. Seen Neil with POTR, Hyde Park London, July 2019 as the support group for Bob Dylan. Neil said they weren't used to playing in daylight, Mebbe a goodnatured dig at Bob, headlining after him. These guys were so much better that day. Worthy successors musically to Crazy Horse imo. Where does Neil get his great T-shirts btw? In Hyde Park London 2009 Neil played with one arm out of his long-sleeved shirt. Absolutely tore the place apart with Keep on Rockin' in the Free World closing number. Rick Rosas's bass shaking the ground on Hey, Hey, My, My opener.
Could be that he is still actually getting better!? The spirit is clearly undiminished in any way - has there ever been a guitarist with more spark than this man? Maybe reinvigorated by playing with young guys - who are clearly a factor in this fine performance. Leaving aside all the unfair comparisons with the Horse - they are not the Horse, but who cares? He wants to live in the moment, and what a long moment it is! Anyway, he has earned it. Magnificent.
Saw him with Crazy Horse last year in Winnipeg (2019). When he got in the “groove”, it was so moving I cried in my seat. Neil still has it and even more. NY becomes music/energy.
Awesome. It made leaf raking a blast. I remember when I first heard this and went to Korvettes in Manhattan to buy it and Jimi album because they had a sale on Warner-Reprise. My dad gave me subway fare (about 70 cents round trip) so I'd a actually save a couple bucks).
If you dont like this rendition of "Down by the River"by the Master, Neil...There must be something effin wrong with you. Simply mind blowing... Excellent!! From " Angel Man", Mr. Weber New Waterford,Ohio.
Its ALL one song! More Barn! Rust Never Sleeps! Remember as you watch this epic, this was the OPENING TUNE of their setlist! 36 min. Then they played 11 more tunes including a closing salvo of F'#@kin Up, Cinnamon Girl, Rockin in the Free World and another long heavy intense jamming tune to close, Love and Only Love, which was awesome. So at least another hour and a half.

I did other things listening to Down By the River that took exactly as long as the song lasted....what was I doing? Oh, I dunno -- but I was 14....lol
Im back for the 20th time..thanks for this post! What a show this was. This song alone for me for me was worth the ticket price entire price!
This live performance is an epic moment in rock and roll history!
Nearly 50 years of playing this song and it is fresh, vibrant, intense and magical -- What a groove!!!!! (Although the records are ace - many of NY's songs come alive played live!!

my mind is splattered ...great old time jam. There's nobody like Neil.

I close my eyes and I'm hearing and feeling music from the Fillmore back in the day . Thanks man, you did really good !!!
When you say Filmore I say YAH!
Thank you! Quite the compliment!!
Yes. Thank God you captured and shared this here in Memphis !!;💜💯
I wholeheartedly agree.

Sweet Christ this jam is fucking outrageously good. I just hope this audience appreciated what they got here 👍
A co nie słychać?- ogarnij się fakir!
I know that's right. Man, you can feel it like Holy Shit Let Me In.
Neils heart is still Young! Thank you for filming it .
I have been a fan of Neil since 1966 and this is the best I have ever heard! Now I know why he is working with these guys...!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
right?-I loved Crazy Horse but this is mind blowing-Neil has written my life-I love it when he gets all metal
RUST NEVER SLEEPS!!
The King of Grunge....I've seen him once live, and it was ASTOUNDING. I've listened to his music for at least 45 yrs.....yeh I'm an OLD fan!~
If there was a university of playing live rockn roll music,this should be taught every day!
long live teacher neil my respect and love to your talent at this age
I love Neil. And this band rocks!
I grew up with Neil I've never seen him so Wasted Age catches up with us All Rock onOl' Comrade
I am 61 and this was written _50 YEARS AGO!_ We are a truly blessed generation.

Christ, This is ridiculous, just mind blowing!

I was at this show. Thank you so much for filming it. You did a great job. ❤️
So was I! Mind bending.

Awesome. It made leaf raking a blast. I remember when I first heard this and went to Korvettes in Manhattan to buy it and Jimi album because they had a sale on Warner-Reprise. My dad gave me subway fare (about 70 cents round trip) so I'd a actually save a couple bucks).
Neil is a giant force of nature . O to be on sugar mountain
the consummate artist; thanks for posting!
totally lovin the PSJB ... (Plad Shirt Jam Band) ... tunes.
If you dont like this rendition of "Down by the River"by the Master, Neil...There must be something effin wrong with you. Simply mind blowing... Excellent!! From " Angel Man", Mr. Weber New Waterford,Ohio.
I am pretending I am there. Wishful thinking ❤
So so needed right now. Almost healing
I was there. Surreal lookin at the Mighty Miss flowing by to my right a few bundred feet away. Incredible experience.
holy fuck this is awesome. I need to see him before I miss my chance
Me definatley I wish he would tour to the UK again so I could see him, I love this man
Willies boys jamming with Uncle Neil...
Its ALL one song! More Barn! Rust Never Sleeps!
Remember as you watch this epic, this was the OPENING TUNE of their setlist! 36 min. Then they played 11 more tunes including a closing salvo of F'#@kin Up, Cinnamon Girl, Rockin in the Free World and another long heavy intense jamming tune to close, Love and Only Love, which was awesome. So at least another hour and a half.
Greatest living genius in arts
Wow! You captured gold.
He's the Ambassador of Rock Royalty!
