  • my god. this is incredible

  • 14:51??? WTF??

  • mikkel bang brouht me here

  • Always one of my favorites from the Crazy Horse period. Can't find music like this these days. Everything is now recycled American Idol rubbish. Give me the early 70's or give me death!!!

  • @EnlightenedRogue One of my absolute favorites too. If someone who'd never heard an electric guitar before asked me what it sounds like, I'd play this song.

    But I disagree with your views on contemporary music. Sure, most mainstream acts are crap, but if you're willing to get your hands dirty you will find plenty of good music.

  • @SpaceProphet5 I can't think of one rock classic since maybe "Smells Like Teen Spirit" and I was not a big fan of Nirvana.That was 20 years ago. Back in the 60's and 70's there was a new hit every week and rock was on the billboard charts where as today it is not. Good music has gone underground so I have to go and find it but as kids all we had to do was turn on the radio. I'm proud of my 17 year old niece who has Neil, Derek and the Dominoes, The Beatles and The Allmans dominating her IPod.

  • The Filmore, Wow ,best version on Y-tube, get a cold beer and close your eyes and remember that special place,that Girl peace-out

  • The Fillmore East was a very special place. There was just something remarkable about the room acoustics. You can hear that in this recording.

  • Over 49,000 views and 0 dislikes. What can you say? One of the greatest tunes ever...

  • @Lakeguy1234 Likes and dislikes mean nothing! If I dislike something, I click on something else. If I like something, I listen to it, but never click like. So it really has no significance.

  • I wanted to thank you for the music, and your very cool efforts to put it up !!

    Music does sooth the wild beast. THANKS

    65 and I have always dug the long guitar versions of really great rock.

    _- - in the case of Hendrix, Doors, Cream, etc., etc., we unfortuanetly fought a war listening to the music, when we could.

    JAK

  • man, what a nice version!

  • Who the heck was Brian Auger!

  • Amazing interplaying between Neil and Danny Whitton.

  • Neil Young is one of the few artists that actually sound better live. There's just so much feeling in that guitar

  • 40 years later good god young cranks and this is a fantastic rendition. This was one of the first neil young tunes I heard and its always been a favorite of mine

  • Remember when bands were made up of musicians ?

  • @goindownthe1road Do you know why music is shit today? Because all music has always been shit.

  • badass version.....didnt even know this show had been released...DAMN

  • why was this not released in 1970? all those years we could have been listening to to this. what a shame!

  • is it bad that i bought this for someone for christmas but want to keep it for myself?

  • Absolutely, The Best Ever, Long Live Neil Young, God Bless...Why was it released in 2006, when originally recorded in 1970 ?

  • AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • A retard gene driven stream of caterwauling, unharmonic guitar screeching more worthy of a transgendered trollop pushed into a gutter after swallowing cum from multiple wayward gentlemen enjoying a night of depraved abandon in seedy establishments on the outskirts of the Shining City on a Hill.

    James!! Scuttle your way to me quickly now, man!

    Bag that cat Nelly Young tonight. Here's a stout bat. Beat the daylights out of her!

    Don't forget your cheap gin, James. Courage, man! Don't fail me.

  • @FuckngBastard You might be a genius.

  • AN INCREDIBLE FIFTEEN MINUTES WITH A NEVERENDING GUITAR SOLO !!!!

  • There have been some great versions of Cowgirl over the years but, this is the best for me with Danny on rhythm. I would give anything for live video of this show.

  • I'am 66 yo and still love his songs , I saw his performance at the fillmore and I know its closed but went to visit . lota good music was in there . and I still have my longhair and longbeard.

  • he cannot make a bad song , it makes me feel new and alive thank god there is archivests and you tube to to make these available I have all his songs on vinyl but this is superior .Oh god I'am starting to cry with chills! especially with half a tab and the jausha light show.gs

  • he cannot make a bad song , it makes me feel new and alive thank god there is archivests and you tube to to make these available I have all his songs on vinyl but this is superior .Oh god I'am starting to cry with chills .gs

  • The Original Grunge Rocker Rock and Roll must never die!!! Kudo's for upload!!

  • I saw Neil Young at Alpine Valley Ski Resort in East Troy Wisconsin, most awesome!

  • why does every song turn into a fucking debate just shut the fuck up and only use your ears to listen to fucking good music yeah!? RESPECT Neil young!

  • the loooong version of Neil's greatness...

  • @TREYOLDHIPPIE

    x2 :) ...never thought I'd hear of a "long version" of cowgirl. :D

    ...let alone live and a good recording too.

  • @AlvinAZ ~ not bad huh! Yeah I could replay this for an hour a day.. almost midnite, I have no sense to turn it off..

  • orale, no habia escuchado este album, que buen concierto era garantia el fillmore, muero por haber nacido en esa epoca y presenciar a los mejores musicos que han existido sobre la fas de la tierra, que buena musica!!!

    saludos desde México DF

  • @garfieldingeniero

    Saludos desde el naco-culo-Gringo in Arizona

  • the first young's song i heard was heart of gold, i thought 'wow, that's good'. the second was cowgirl in the sand, and i thought 'god, this man is a genius'.

  • COOOO EEEEE MO O !! LOL

  • @mohumadtreebranch Colin's very talented--to have a signpost do ALL the music & singing for him--WOW BEST STAGE SHOW EVER!! =:)

  • What the hell is with the bass players low E string. It must have gotten bumped and in a big boomy room it's hard to hear the notes your playing. As the song goes along he gets more and more out of tune. Towards the middle it's unlistenable, but gets worse. I can't believe they would release this. Neil Young must really hate the bass player to have released this. On the other hand, this is one of Neil Young's Best songs. 10:19 man it just keeps getting worse.

  • @Stratonini 10:15 colin had a fix thats why

  • Comment removed

  • A legend in his own time!!! Nuff said!!!

  • To whomever posted this: THANK YOU!!! I've only ever heard the album version which is great but this live version is a master class in keeping the rhythm section doing their thing while the lead kicks ass.

    I shed a tear, it's beautiful!

  • iF THAT AINT ROCK AND ROLL,I"ll kiss your ass!

  • @theguycansing Here's my bum X lol

  • another great version is in "Perfect Echo" compilation (6 or more cds) along w/long live versons 60's to few yrs ago. I like this one the best because of the bass line and ambience. Holy Modal!

  • 56 years old and haven't listened to cowgirl in the sand for over 30+ years. turned on to this three days ago and i can't stop playing it

  • Chills, man. Gives me chills. The lead breaks are jagged shards of glass. The band surges and fades with Whitten's rhythm playing. None of Sampedro's heavy hand. All light, cool, subtle and quick. Sheer grooviness. Epically so.

  • god, Danny Whitten, lay it out there bro....

  • @66clearlight Well, I guess I made a mistake, it is Neil playing all the leads here. Wonder why they list Danny Whitten as "lead guitar" in Crazy Horse?

  • @TheAURIEMMA well said, agree totally

  • I was born in 95, but damn how I wish I was alive at a time to see Neil Young and Crazy Horse play one day, Miles Davis the next, John Mayall the week after that, a week later see the Moody Blues, and in a week come back to see Joe Cocker and Brian Auger, That would be nice

  • guns n roses!?!? this song is like pure uncut columbian not some over produced 80's album. i like both bands but different stratosphere s

  • Thank you RockkkV2 holy cow..... the absolute best version. A religious experience.

  • Thank you for posting this version. THIS IS THE BEST VERSION! PERIOD! I'm glad I found it here. It's like finding gold. I can't believe that someone here wrote that a specific album by Pink Floyd and GNR is ahead of this. Come on,child!

  • i think this is the best version of the song

  • why does everyone seem to hit the high mark when they played at the fillmore east...and when Neil hits it, ti's sublime

  • Its not suppose to get much better than this, right?

  • #1 Live Album on the Planet Earth..

  • @dockie1964 no way man :P it's good but there is so much better.. I would put Appetite for Destruction and Dark Side of the Moon ahead of this easy

  • @BubbleParadox appetite for destruction you kidding me?

    and pink floyd have better albums than dark side of the moon its like saying led zeppelin best album is led zeppelin IV

  • @BubbleParadox appetite for destruction over this? NO. 

  • @roejogan8 Your oppinion I guess, I'd rather listen to it than this though

  • This concert...Please god take me there some day...

  • A killer version!

  • I can,t believe I found this. I was at this concert many years ago. Steve Miller Band were there also

  • connecting with humans through time with sound. who says that the time machine doesnt exist? Keep ridding the great highway!

  • neil young could bust out a deck of cards and play solitairy on stage,i would still be captivated

  • The 60s eara were a special time and place and that music then as now is timeless, it was a good time to be young and appreciate what was happening before your very senses.

  • neil plagiarized this from God...

  • this song always brings the hugest goofy grin onto my face

  • Only just got into Neil Young. What have I been missing out on?!!

  • @WhyHerro it's never too late ^^

  • @WhyHerro

    Everything .....

  • @WhyHerro cuz it's Neil Young & Crazy Horse.  there's a difference. get on it.

  • @WhyHerro better late than never dude!

    you must take a look at his unplugged album

  • @toniko88 That was the first thing i heard by him. Love it

  • @WhyHerro you don't even know half of what you've been missing

  • @WhyHerro everything man ,everything.

  • @WhyHerro

    Me 2 man! Knew him for a long time already, but never learned to appreciate his music as much as i do now! Neil is such an amazing musician: great singer and performer, but the simply the BEST songwriter out there! thanks neil for all of this amazing music!

  • @WhyHerro cortez the killer is banned in some countries lol

  • @WhyHerro Your in for a treat. He rocks. Talent and class.

  • @WhyHerro Right? You been missing a lot!

  • @WhyHerro rhetorical question?

  • @WhyHerro check out the tune like a hurricane off the weld live album its a 14 minute song or so and he is playing leads for oh about half of that

  • And Whitten propels another of Neils songs into eternity.

  • @rickslv08 i dont know if its the best guitar song but of course its one of the best.. first time i heard this song it was like is this real? or wtf! every musician has his best live performance, so i guess this is the best live performance by neil young..
