can-o-phish Posted December 10, 2008 Report Share Posted December 10, 2008 All I can say is that if you're a "Young'n" then this is a MUST HAVE for your collection... As we all know Neil is fairly standoff-ish with interviews, crowd bantering, etc but this performance from '68, just days before his 23rd birthday, is filled with him talking/rapping to the crowd and it's fantastic stuff, almost in the same manner in which Arlo entertains his audience between songs and in many ways just as good as the songs themselves... His "Cole's Book Store Employment" story in Toronto is classic, and one that Cole's isn't going to be drawing attention to Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scottieking Posted December 12, 2008 Report Share Posted December 12, 2008 I definitely would describe this as a charming recording. I did not know that Sugar Mountain came from this show. The banter is neat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Low Roller Posted December 12, 2008 Report Share Posted December 12, 2008 I like that one bit where Neil accidentally figures out the riff to the song that would become Winterlong while messing around on guitar in between tracks.
