Neil Young to Release ‘Live At the Cellar Door 1970

It’s been about nine months since Neil Young released an album, which is an eternity for the prolific legend. Thankfully, that drought will soon be over.

Vintage Vinyl News reports that Young is ready to continue his series of archival releases with ‘Live at the Cellar Door 1970,’ which — as per its title — collects live performances from Young’s six-show stand at the Washington, D.C. venue in 1970.

As Young explained to Guitar World in 2009, the recordings remained under wraps for decades because he felt they lacked “enough great takes to release it as its own disc”; in fact, he went on to say he planned on giving them away to owners of his ‘Archives’ box.

“I’ll probably make the songs available as downloadable updates to ‘Archives,’” he mused. “We’ll drop them onto the timeline, one at a time. So one day you may receive an update that will allow you to download the first song from that show, and then maybe a week later, you’ll get an update with the second song. And then the third song will come the next week. Before you know it, you have 40 minutes of music in high-def sound that you didn’t have to pay for, and that no one’s ever heard before.”

Young, true to form, has since changed his mind. ‘Live at the Cellar Door 1970,’ which will not be free, is tentatively scheduled for a Sept. 6 release.



‘On the Way Home’
‘Tell Me Why’
‘Only Love Can Break Your Heart’
‘Old Man’
‘Down by the River’
‘After the Gold Rush’
‘Expecting to Fly’
‘Flying on the Ground Is Wrong’
‘Bad Fog of Loneliness’
‘See the Sky About to Rain’

Neil Young Adds 2014 Tour Dates

Neil-Young.jpg

He didn’t play as many dates as he’d planned in 2013, but Neil Young is already filling up his concert schedule for next year.

Young has announced a handful of 2014 shows, starting in January with a series of benefit performances on behalf of the Athabasca Chipewyan First Nation relief fund, established to help Albertan natives fight the development of oil-sands reserves in the Canadian province. Young is scheduled to be joined by Diana Krall for the dates, four in all, starting on Jan. 12 in Toronto and concluding Jan. 19 in Calgary.

After trucking through the Canadian snow in January, Young and his entourage will be ready for warmer climes, and in July, they’ll head to the U.K. to appear at the Hyde Park festival. On July 12, Young and Crazy Horse will join an eclectic group of artists — including the National, Tom Odell, Caitlin Rose, Phosphorescent and Flyte — on the sprawling 10-day event’s impressive lineup. Barclaycard customers have access to a special pre-order sale that begins Dec. 11 at this website.

Young fans who find themselves jonesing for live Neil, but are unable to make the trek to Canada or the U.K., can content themselves with the just-released ‘Live at the Cellar Door 1970,’ which continues his Archives Performance Series with a look at a pivotal series of solo dates from early in his career.

Neil Young 2014 Tour Dates

1/12 – Toronto, Canada
1/16 – Winnipeg, Canada
1/17 – Regina, Canada
1/19 – Calgary, Canada
7/12 – London, England

this starts tonight.
Neil added 4 nights at Carnegie Hall prior to this on this small all solo tour.
I went Tuesday night and had box seats stage right. I've been to Carnegie Hall a number of times but never in the box seats. Excellent view and sound. Neil did two great sets and a two song encore. Highlights Are You ready for the Country, Man Needs a Maid, Love in Mind, Comes a Time.

Only had my so so camera (wish I had the good one-there is no picture taking at Carnegie but they don't search or scan and when your in the box seats they don't bother you if you use no flash or screen)

Love Neil's setup he told a few stories about them including one Stephen Stills game him and it has a bullet hole thru it.
