Album Notes & Community Reviews

Documenting the massive 1978 'Rust Never Sleeps' tour, this concert album traces Neil Young's artistic dichotomy with striking clarity. The set evolves from an intimate, fragile acoustic solo performance into an immensely distorted, roaring onslaught once Crazy Horse takes the stage. The theatrical staging and blistering noise of the electric half notably positioned Young as a pivotal precursor to the burgeoning grunge movement.
