They were good friends. James Taylor played the banjo on "Old Man". He also got dragged down a hill by his "long Hippie hair" when they were working on an old truck of Neil's. If it isn't BBC then it may be The Johnny Cash Show.
Two of the best. Cat Stevens and Harry Chapin were great in that day too!
Thank you for posting this! Is this from the bbc concert where James Taylor, Neil Young AND Cat Stevens played?? Am I right to say Cat Stevens was also featured on the concert dvd? thanks :)
I'd like to see Justin Bieber or Bruno Mars or Lady Gaga or any of the other manufactured megastars of today sit down with nothing but an instrument and I microphone (sorry, no "autotune" either), and perform a masterpiece as brilliantly as this. Oh, and they have to have written that masterpiece all by themselves too, like Taylor did this one.
They're all pretenders today...this is REAL music.
This video is such a treasure!!! Two unequalled masters at the outset of their careers. What's amazing is that they're both still recording and performing today. Thanks for posting.
Great song and one of my favorite artists of all time.

Wow, Don Draper sure changed his look after he left the advertising biz. And I didn't know Jack White had been around for so long.
Jokes aside - this is pure gold. Thanks for posting.

Two consummate masters at work... now "old" songs that will never get old. The bar was raised high then, and so many fall short these days.
