Neil Young and Promise of the Real
It's all one Song

Eurotour 2016 electric sets

With recently (03-2018) some new shows announced I reckoned it was time to do a little review of the last tour in 2016

Allways wondered what makes an artist decide what order of songs to play at a show or sequence an album,
I thought it would be innaresting to set up a compilation
and let the songs/chords themself be the guidance instead of the in concert order of performance.
Kind of a guitar players angle I guess.
The feel of the whole thing changes. That's what this compilation especially is about.
You should play in one row to experience it to the full.....

Quite remarkable that the Am and Em section has the best of the long songs, does the melancholy feel of the minors keep you longer in the mood to play .....

I paid extra attention to the beginnings and ends of the songs, the normal applause part sometimes was handed in for a tight transition.
Before all the guitar players wonder : I didn't precise the D/Dm/Dmodal settings. Sometimes a D sharp is played in a Dmodal tunned song like When You Dance.

This compilation has the same songs as the EuroTour comp part 2 from 2016, but ...
almost all the tracks are from different shows or from different sources with the exception of The Loner(that was a hard one to fit in)
There is even some uncirculated stuff here.

So why again adressing these recordings: Well the music is just freaking good and it's a lot of joy to work on these well recorded tracks

Points of interest:
Vampire Blues with an innaresting ending
Like An Inca (09.55) and Down By The River (12.25)with a few berserk solo's from Neil at the end part
Akwark begin to Mansion On The Hill (or is it sound problems)
False start to Here We Are In The Years
A moving Cortez from a new Barcelona source
A very very strong vocal delivery on Don't Be Denied
Country Home with a whistling solo (haven't heard that very oftern)
Winterlong and Bad Fog Of Loneliness in a stepped down pace (evidence by comparison)
A spacey and pretty fast version of Love And Only Love, with a freaky ending
And yes in Berlin Rocking In The Freeworld started wih the chorus. Note the Volkswagon reference in the new verse

Don't download this when your ratio isn't up to it, it will hurt you.

Almost all the tracks were converted from FLAC to WAV and after the editing back to FLAC as most of them were originating from Dime downloads.
Editing with Adobe Audition. Encoded to flac level 8, aligned on sector boundaries.

The original information with lineage is nailed in the infofile
