Neil Young - BBC Sessions, Volume 3: In Concert, Glastonbury Festival, Worthy Farm, Pilton, Britain, 6-26-2009

Here is Neil Young's third, and so far last, BBC concert. It's from the huge, annual Glastonbury Festival in 2009.

This was the first and still only time that Young has performed at Glastonbury. However, as I write this in February 2025, it has been reported that Young is scheduled to be one of the headliners in the summer of 2025. (There were news reports that he canceled due to a dispute with the BBC, but then later reports that he undid the cancellation.) So let's hope that later in 2025 there will be a "Volume 4" in this series.

This 2009 concert was not performed with his band Crazy Horse. However, you'd be excused if you thought otherwise, because this was very much in the same rocking mode as his Crazy Horse stuff. Instead, his band was just called his "Electric Band."

This is also a long, complete concert, nearly two hours long. Only some of his songs were broadcast on BBC TV or radio, less than an hour's worth. But somehow the full version was made public with excellent sound quality, so I'm posting all I can.

A couple of months prior to this concert, Young released his latest studio album, "Fork in the Road." He didn't promote it much in this concert, however, performing a grand total of one song from that album, "Get Behind the Wheel." Instead, he did classics from all phases of his long music career, plus a cover of "A Day in the Life" by the Beatles as the final encore. 

This album is an hour and 46 minutes long.
