Beautiful Bootleg: Legendary 1971 Solo Show Includes 16 Tracks, including the Harvest Version of "The Needle and the Damage Done"
During Neil Young's long and storied career, some of his concerts have gained mythic status, thanks to the practice of bootlegging. Recorded on January 30, 1971, this previously unreleased concert was performed at gorgeous Royce Hall on the campus of UCLA in Los Angeles, near the end of the singer/songwriter's 1971 solo tour.
Young played 16 solo acoustic numbers that night, accompanying himself on guitar and harmonica. The track list features beloved classics like "Old Man," "Heart of Gold," "Ohio," "Cowgirl in the Sand," "Don't Let it Bring You Down" and "Down by the River," plus the timeless version of "The Needle and the Damage Done" that appears on 1972's Harvest, one of the greatest albums of all time.
