I remember sitting in my livingroom in West L.A. back in the Summer of 1983 watching this entire 'Live in Berlin' concert on Showtime - it was a part of a series called SRO ( Standing Room Only ). I finally managed to get it on DVD a few years back and it is still as fresh today as it was back then - Keep on rockin' Neil.
I dont get why people hate this era of Neil Young. Not to compare them but I always loved 'Trans' just as much as 'Harvest'. I think pretty much everything this guy has done is gold.
@berwin19 A buddy of mine was stationed in germany and seen this very show! Then when Neil came back to the states, I seen Trans at Madison Square Garden NYC!..This was something else to see it live, I love the Trans album!
@dockie1964, Unfortunately I only found out the name of the album just recently. The only way I was able to recognize that I had seen this was by the tassels on Neil Lofgrens guitar. I'm going to have to find the album. Good memories.
@KURTIS19801 Modern synths just don't have the monster tone of the old analogue synths... I'm sure there's some kind of irony there, those synths are "Dinosaurs in the computer age!".
This song was so far before it's time. Any audio engineer can appreciate the work involved in performing this song live. You only see the band on stage. But there are people backstage working the synths and I think they need credit to. Great song, and it never gets old :)
not CRAZY HORSE,maybe he's making fun,you never know but either way he has guts enough to do different shit,age is wisdom learn that if you wanna rock true. GUITARS T T
Saw this tour. It was amazing how the lyrics were so much easier to understand live than in this video.
Hearing Neil, again, taking a jab at another 'institution,' in this case the coming, 'computer age,' I found myself smiling as Neil wondered around the
stage, starting out into the crowd, with the sunglasses, huiding his eyes, maybe hiding what was to come.
HEY HEY MY MY ROCK N ROLL WILL NEVER DIE!!

Even the Berliners have no clue what's just happened here.
What a frickin' cool way to get out of a record contract.
And then right after this came the Shocking Pinks. You gotta love Neil.
