Neil Young And The Bluenotes - New York, New York (Broadcast Recording) - DOUBLE LP

Spirited Nyc Performance By Neil Young & The Bluenotes.

Fronting a nine-piece rhythm and blues band that included long time cohorts Ben Keith and Poncho Sampedro, as well as a full horn section, The Bluenotes were a powerhouse band that showcased yet another side of Neil Young as a rhythm and blues man.

Presented here for the first time is the FM Broadcast recording of The Bluenotes live on stage at The World in New York City. Much of the 1988 studio album 'This Note's For You' is represented here in more compelling form, in addition to four songs ("Welcome To The Big Room", "High Heels", "Bad News" and "Your Love Is Good To Me") that remain unreleased.

This exceptional quality live recording captures a spirited Bluenotes performance - their first before a discerning New York City audience.

Without blatantly covering anyone, Young pays homage to blues influences like Jimmy Reed, Buddy Guy, Michael Bloomfield and all three Kings (Albert, Freddie and B.B.). This is Young pursuing a very big sound while exploring some of the root elements in his music.
