  • Completely incredible version, the best, thank you!

  • THAT LES PAUL....

  • i just got home from CSU,this is just what i needed! CRANKED THAT SH**!!!!!

  • I can only imagine the energy they all must feel on stage. What a transcendent experience that must be! It's no wonder most rock musicians turn to drugs. Their normal life can't top what high they experience while playing live. Thank God for Pearl Jam and Neil Young, and the legends before them. Consistent excellence.

  • its a song  stop analyzing

  • The smile on Boom's face at 3.00 completely sums up this video...

  • Dylan is really amazing, this version is good!

  • Ummm - this is a Bob Dylan song. Hendrix version may be the most popular, but still a cover...

  • i just had an 8 minute lasting orgasm

  • @Knukleheada I hear you!! But I just had a nine minute orgasm listening to this version "Dave Matthews Band - Watchtower w/ Warren Haynes -MSG- 2000"

  • Comment removed

  • ha ha eddie drunck as fuck

  • completely and totally awsome 

  • Neil is like a hurricane!

  • How can anyone possibly dislike this song and video ??? Really ??? Really ????

  • Niel looks like a bricklayer... and play the guitar like a MASTER

  • re copado che!

    

  • Man, I'm travelin through the watchtower versions, startin from Battlestar Galactica, over Hendrix, Bob Dylan, Matthews Band and then this one here and it was like *flashed* wow! acustic orgasmn... @_@

  • GREAT!!!

    Love the hammond...

  • been watching this for over a week just on loop.... over a nice bowl of grass :)

  • ...it´s like being in heaven...neil and eddie together.....the only thing i really needed being in heaven is my fürstin by my side... :-)

  • the way he plays this song... puts me ina trance, and only gods of rock can do such things

  • NEIL YOUNG IS THE GREATEST MAN ALIVE

  • A Hymn!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!!!!!

  • YES!

  • What a f***in' GREAT SONG! Performed by f***in' GREAT PEOPLE!

  • Neil Young = Pure passion!

  • I remember first time I saw this video, and someone had posted a comment which said "THEY ARE PLAYING LIKE THE WORLD IS GOING TO FUCKING END"

    And thats fucking exactly how it feels, this performance is so fucking insanely well done, I wish to have this in my ipod when the apocalypse comes :)

  • this needs one word: BRILLIANT!!

  • Dylan wrote it. Hendrix covered it.

  • that shirt neil is wearing to SO TRUE. ive seen pearl jam a couple times...would have loved to see this.

  • Holy FUCK! I just got goosebumps! Neil Young is a god!

  • Neil Young just gets better and better.

  • I thought they were covering the Frank Marino & Mahogany Rush version.... Just kidding!

  • Neil Isn't the better guitarrist of the world ( at least technically),

    he hasn't the best voice of the world.

    Music isn't a" race", it's Art and Neil is for sure one of the best musicians of the world.

    Also nice job by Pearl Jam....

  • every cover made after jimi's has been based on jimi's version (michael hedges, dave matthews band, this etc). Even Bob Dylan said that this is a hendrix song after hearing his cover

  • @dannix87 SO awesome Dylan was just like "eh he did better than I did on that one" Its like Roy Orbison and Van Halen on Pretty Women.

  • Neil looks like David Carradine!!!!

  • Power-demonstration from Neil Young.......

  • Haha this is awesome, it's just like an 8 minute jam :)

  • yo pearl jams guitarist is sick

  • @nucleardude11 Both are. Stone and Mike. I'm assuming you were talking about Mike? He is brilliant.

  • @nucleardude11 Everyone....look at the comment this guy made and give it a big fucking thumbs down. This guy might be one of the biggest douchebags that I have ever encountered. Neil Young is one of the best guitarists of all time, and you are and idiot.

  • @ fIRsTRATmAN

    I mean the roof and the stuff within. Iam really not gay, but this song is rockn roll and whos not understand this need help.

  • Cant get enough of this fantastic song (thx Bob) and the last hippie with pearl jam...like a hymn

    @ fIRsTRATmAN : So what, I do so.

  • WOWWW! I had not caught this one before. What a powerful performance by everyone, with everyone in the groove together, feelin' the power ripple in waves off the speakers and echo back from the crowd. But it was not power enough to prevent G.W. Bush from winning a 2nd term, which was what this tour was all about.

  • awesome audio and video to this brilliant performance

  • NEIL YOUNG KICKS ASS!!!

  • @CarrollGazette Yes Carroll, Mr. Young is amazing. He may be sober now, but when he's into playing that electric, he is still on a different wavelength. Wild, crazy, weaving WAY around the melody. And he's one of the very last like himself. If he ever comes near Florida again, I'll catch him for sure. Never know. Time starts catching up on all us old cats.

  • BTW does anyone know if the Dylan version is available anywhere on youtube or do they just automatically terminate on sight?

  • Very excellent jam, just wish they didn't screw up the duet singing mode they usually were pretty good at in their other songs they've performed together.

  • Superb jam, its 3.30 am & blasting the roof of my house with this

  • I'm pretty sure Wolverine is Neil's grandfather

  • lets start some silly shit? is this what kobain would look like now. Would elvis really look like eamon holmes? would jimmy look like denzel from only fools? dude see with your ears!!!!!!!!!!

  • questions

    

  • Neil plays the hell out of that guitar. What a screaming tone!!

  • 9lp0üä#

  • no disrespect to pj, but i wish vedder would just shut the fuck up and let neil sing.  amazing cover of an amazing song.

  • @robbymadore theyre both great singers, so i dont get why ed cant sing in your opinion. are yuo crazy?

  • when i saw the two kissing.. i thought i had accidently cliked Queen meets elton john <3

  • Is this from the Toledo show? Cuz I was there if it was. What a good time!

  • are there two gays kissing at the beginning or am i wrong?

  • yes ... i was surprised too ... loool

  • @lolojulia Who really gives a fuck? If you like the band and Neil, that's what you're here for right? Or are you just a sack of shit who's afraid of homosexuals? I'm married and have a kid, and I'm not judgmental like that. What's your agenda here?

  • @lolojulia The man on a left looks like Eddie - I hope - I'm wrong

  • Anyway, THIS IS MUSIC. Fuckin' neverending Rock Legends. The might be old, devasteted by drugs, drunk or whatever - on a stage - GODs of music. And this is something - play Jimmi Hendrix with sucha passion.

    I hate those young folks, who tries to sing clean and with all those voice ornaments. I hate all those young shits - who connect music with dancing, lights, effects and good looking. Look at Eddie - simple wear. 'cause THIS IS MUSIC. Just and only...

  • @Kapiszczur ur my hero today.

  • @Kapiszczur This is actually a Dylan song, but never mind, it's still awesome :o)

  • @mshellozombiekitty I know it's a Dylan song, but this version is still about Jimi Hendrix. Bob Dylan made a soft song. Anyway - yeah it's awesome. The best, after Jimi, cover

  • @Kapiszczur what a fuckin' idiot u r. I wrote: "I know it's Dylan, but they are covering Jimi version" so yeah - what a idiot u r x2

  • @Kapiszczur this isnt Jimmi Hendrix you fool its bob dylan shows how much you know about music

  • @Kapiszczur You mean Dylan?

  • @Kapiszczur Thumbs up, man. This performance gives me chills. It almost makes me believe that those guys couldn't possibly care less if there was an audience or not...they are playing MUSIC...it's all about the MUSIC! Yes, they rock the hell out of this song and they are all music legends, but the old guy can climb on stage with the young bucks and they can appreciate each other's talents and make a historic performance...because it's MUSIC. Long live rock and roll!

  • @Kapiszczur fuck these dinosaurs, the sooner they're extinct, the better

  • @Kapiszczur I am a 'young shit' and even I can tell you that Eddie would not appreciate all of your hate. I love you man, even though I am in a group you have apparently decided to hate as a whole in your head.

  • @karlehrgott I'm not talking about people, who dance, I'm talkin' about people, who call music - something - that not exist in real-live show. Like Britney Spears or Lady Gaga etc. And I don't really hate them, only in music way I hate them.

  • @Kapiszczur I can appreciate that sentiment sir =) I hate how close-minded most people are. I could never hate the people themselves though so I'm glad you clarified what direction your hate was directed =)

  • @Kapiszczur ... speaking of Gods, what they're playing - and what Hendrix was playing - is Dylan.

  • @TommyDeee thats what I was going to comment .Bob's song but Jimmi electrified it!

  • @Kapiszczur

    It's a Bob Dylan song but this version might be a little Hendrix-version inspired. I totally agree in the rest of your comment!

  • @Ryyloo I think its more to Young's style than Hendrix.. I can definiately hear aspects of Cowgirl in the Sand in the solos.

  • @Maksimfan Yes, I can too. Ofc his own version as always.

  • @Kapiszczur he's still called jimi hendrix. how old are you, boy?

  • @nico19611 my 1 letter mistake makes my stupid boy in your eyes? You must be very adult to talk so... I'm not going to insult you in any way and I'm not going to explain - 'cause your 49 is still not my level...grandpa

  • @Kapiszczur All good points... but you know Hendrix was covering a Bob Dylan song right?

  • @Kapiszczur yeah but you forgot one thing in all of your "Rock God" posturing.. this is not a Jimi Hendricks song ..this is a Bob Dylan song..do your homework next time and you will sound smart as well as passionate.

  • @Kapiszczur The fact that you have so much hate for everything that is different from what you like shows that you have no idea what music is even for

  • @Kapiszczur couldn't agree with you more, I've been searching for over an hour for THIS version of the song.

  • @Kapiszczur

    Uhh..it's a Dylan song..

  • @Kapiszczur

    Jimi covered it.

  • @lolojulia yep.look like kissing to me!

  • @lolojulia hahahah yes

  • @lolojulia one gay, one guy ...

  • @lolojulia yeah it's you and your dad

  • @lolojulia you got a problem with that?

  • @Arian545 yea, i gotta problem with it shit dick, get a room butt lips!!

  • @utubeboob9 bechause they are gay the shouldn't be alowed to kiss in public?

  • @lolojulia

    Perhaps. What is your concern?

  • How on earth anyone can say they dislike this is beyond me,unless they prefer another Neil Young performance of this great Bob Dylon song.

  • 4 people are stupid people with stupid-heads that are just stupid.

  • Great jam. 2 things that bug me,the pl jam singer should'nt be singing,leave it to Neil & also the Pl Jam guitarist with the les paul is getting on my nerves at times & is a pefect example of a guitarist not feeling or listening to the music played. He cuts in terribly after the last verse of the song and completely spoils the rythm 6:39 onwards,that is some horrible note selection and playing, no feel whatsoever & just going thru the notions other than that this is awesome, pure rock 'n roll.

  • @fIRsTRATmAN I'm almost positive that if Neil Young felt the same way then he wouldn't play onstage with those guys. They are professionals having a blast together.

  • Comment removed

  • @fIRsTRATmAN Happy New Year to you as well but don't act like you know me or seem to think I don't understand music. And do not go off and think you are some guitar guru or anything just because you play. I play as well and I don't need someone like you telling me I don't have a developed ear or can't tell what you are talking about. obviously Neil steals the show but that's obvious AND if I were PJ I would sit back and let a true legend do exactly what he did. Mike McCready does NOT suck btw

  • @shtty17 Have a go at re reading my comment not to you but my original comment for the song, leaving your ego aside, you might understand the true intention behind it.

  • @fIRsTRATmAN If you think Mike McCready's guitar sounds "terrible", then you've wasted all those years playing guitar. Your ears are useless, man. Period.

    Believe me, I've been playing guitar for over 40 years now. Professionally. And I live pretty well ;).

  • @back2back75 Who the fuck are u to tell me ive wasted all those years playing guitar & calling my ears useless just shows what kind of a useless person u are, period. If u read my original comment,u may understand what i said.I never said he's terrible,I said his playing was terrible here at times.Now if u dont like wht ive said & wish to respond with personal insults like u have done dont bother instead upload videos of ur playing.Let me see what kind of a guitar player u are to insult one.

  • @back2back75 Mr.Playing for 40'years, What gives you the right to insult a musician you loser. You are an absolute dick head fag like the two fags kissing at the start of this video. You insult me, then like a bitch you block me? What kind of a fag are you? peice of shit garbage. Dont respond to my comment like a little fag, respond like a man and show me your guitar playing.

  • @fIRsTRATmAN If you play your guitar with the same "style" as you reply to other people here, no doubt my previous comment was absolutely right. You're not only a faggot, but also have no idea about playing guitar. That's a fact, you piece of crap. Suck my big "Mr Playing for 40 years" balls and go learn who Mike McCready is before I have to pop your cherry again in front of everybody.

  • LONG LIVE ROCK 'N ROLL. NOTHING BEATS IT!

  • THIS IS ROCK 'N ROLL!.... THIS IS REAL MUSIC. THESE ARE REAL MUSICIANS NOT FKING X FACTOR, RIYANNA, BEIBER, GAGA DUMB CRAP!

  • Neil Young's style is superb. without him and just pearl jam this song wouldnt sound anything like what its sounding. This is all Neil Young.

  • The 4 deaf cunts who disliked this video are bebier,gaga,riyanna fans. How can you not like this. I dont think i can speak or communicate with people who dont like music like this....

  • Im blasting this full on, the only way to listen. As Mark Knopfler once said rock 'n roll should be heard LOUD!......... Superb, this is orgasmic.

  • only version i like after Hendrix's

  • THIS IS ROCK 'N ROLL

  • Beautiful, ROCK 'N ROLL.... LONG MAY IT LIVE!

  • i like this version, but i still prefer hendrix's. thanks for the upload, epic quality :)

  • all i know is 2 of the greatest arena shows i have seen are Neil Young and Pearl Jam ( different shows).

  • blistering version

  • what i would do to have old black.

  • Einfach genial....Neil Young,Eddy Vedder.....und Bob Dylans Lied!!

  • my favorite version of a wonderful song,thanks to both bob and neil

  • So let us not talk falsely now, the hour is getting late

  • man, i think the only thing pearl jam is lacking is a power house drummer. dont get me wrong, i like matt cameron a lot, but dave a was the man and woulda made them sound so much better. still though, even now, pearl jam is one bad ass mother fucking band. the only thing about music nowadays that i like. everything else is terrible. and them and neil killed it here. love watchin these guys play together. mike is such a bad ass guitarist

  • Pearl Jam are pretty good, but they sure a'int no Crazy Horse.

  • That's true lunamysun, I have that double cd from Dylan's anniversary, the greatest version of that song from Young for me. But I cannot find it anymore on Utube! I seen it a lot, but somehow it's not available anymore?

    greetz. Marcel, Holland

  • That's a beautiful combo of voices, right there. Just gorgeous...

  • Fuck!!! Fuck!!! Fuck!!! This video is really Fucking good!!!!

  • HITS THE SWITCH AT LIGHTNING SPEED AT 4:20 AND CONTINUES TO MAKE LOVE TO HIS GUITAR - LEGENDARY!

  • Heh Heh my my, Rock and roll never dies...

  • @toogie555 That was what I thought it sounded like.

  • i am so glad to see that many icons his generation lives on in so many new and upcoming bands that sing cover songs to honor these icons rock and roll neil

  • absolutely killer! WTF is that? I'm gettin' blown away by this massive energy!!!

  • Old Neil still talkin about change something by voting for that fuck head Obama like it was the 1960's at the end of this video. Shut the fuck up and play the music you know shit about politics

  • @traderjts This was recorded in 2004 when John Carey was running for president against Bush. Obama was obscure then. It's sad how politics seem to be such a problem for people now.

  • @traderjts ...maybe it's YOU traderjts, that doesn't know shit. Think about it.

  • Kyllä pappa näyttää miten fiilistellään.

  • teach em how its done Neil  :-)

  • Keep on rockin' in the free world Neil, 'til the whole world is free!

  • Rock on. Rock and roll never dies.

  • WOW

    

  • The look of happiness on Neil's face at 5:45 is priceless man. They are loving that vibe.

  • Neil is Neil. And has always been. No one like him.

  • WHATS WITH THE QUEERS?!

    

  • Neil almost twanging everyone off the stage: The passion of the man! Solid backing from PJ. Two different generations coming together. EFFING MAGIC!
