EXTRAORDINARY FESTIVAL APPEARANCE FROM YOUNG AND CRAZY HORSE IN CENTRAL PARK
Neil Young and Crazy Horse were deep into a blistering set on Central Park’s Great Lawn when Young made an announcement: ‘We’re joining forces up here for you’ Dave Grohl and Dan Auerbach then took the stage with their guitars to tear through a ten-minute version of “Rockin’ in the Free World”, slashing power-chords while reverently watching the master take over, Young wrenching hazy, piercing, dissonant squeals from his Les Paul and shaking violently.
Young’s feedback-soaked set - which ranged from “Powderfinger” to new cuts like the autobiographical “Born in Ontario” and the spooky jam “Walk Like a Giant” – was an epic finale to the Global Citizen Festival, which drew more than 60,000 people to Central Park on 28th September 2012.
