This is the fourth hand-made video from the "Fork In The Road" album. Neil has been quietly making these videos completely on his own, with nothing more than a simple camera and an idea, and more are coming as Neil continues to shoot each day. These revolutionary videos do more with a zero-dollar budget than a $300,000 dollar budget could ever dream of - they're pure, renegade Neil Young at their best.  Click here to check it out. And head over to neilyoung.com to pre-order the new album - in stores April 7th!

PRE-ORDER NEIL YOUNG'S NEW ALBUM FROM HIS
SITE!

Neil Young's newest studio album,
"Fork In The Road," is coming on April 7th, but you can pre-order
the special CD/DVD version (which comes with select videos of the
album's songs) right now by going to neilyoung.com and clicking on the banner on the
homepage.


Neil has been an activist his entire career,
and over the past few years has become involved in developing
different fuel possibilities. Along with Johnathan Goodwin, their
Linc Volt project (lincvolt.com) using alternative energy to power
Young's 1959 Lincoln Continental is now finished. From that
development and other inspirations, the songs on "Fork In The Road"
are an emotional response to the current social and ecological
questions facing the world’s population. Recorded in 2008 between
tour dates, Young and his band Ben Keith (pedal steel guitar,
keyboards), Chad Cromwell (drums), Rick Rosas (bass), Pegi Young
(vocals) and Anthony Crawford (vocals, guitar) were instantly
sparked playing new songs like "Johnny Magic," "Fuel Line," "Light a
Candle" and others, roaring through the sessions at top
speed.

Uncut magazine's Bud Scoppa writes about the album:
"Fork In The Road" finds Young back in his rusted-out garage,
looking under the hood of a world badly in need of an overhaul.
Employing the classic American metaphor of the endless highway, he
sets out on a road trip through these troubled times, finding much
to fret about, but fueled by the dogged belief that we can get
through this mess. And if 'Just singing a song won't change the
world,' as Young acknowledges in the rousing, Zuma-like 'Singing a
Song,' that's not gonna keep him from rockin' in whatever’s left of
the free world."

Get it now at neilyoung.com! And
stay tuned for more videos coming from the new
album!

Get the highly anticipated release 'Sugar Mountain Live At Canterbury House 1968' as part of the continuing Neil Young Archive Performance Series The album includes songs that were written during his Buffalo Springfield days as well as newly written material that would appear on future solo albums.

CSNY/ DÉJÀ VU

A film by Neil Young

 

Neil Young's new film CSNY Deja Vu comes to UK cinemas on July 18th.

Also available from July 18th on Film Flex in Movies On Demand on Virgin Media

 

The war in Iraq is the backdrop as the CSNY "Freedom of Speech Tour" crisscrosses North America. The film examines the band's connection to its audience in both political and musical terms, and examines the relationship between Vietnam-era anti-war sentiment and today's post-9/11 environment. A Vietnam veteran sums it all up: "It's deja vu all over again."

 

"One of the finest music documentaries in recent memory… a resounding success"

Time Out ****

 

"An exceptional rockumentary...riveting!"

Empire ****

 

Featuring: David Crosby, Graham Nash, Stephen Stills, Neil Young, Steven Colbert

 

Short Synopsis:

The war in Iraq is the backdrop as the CSNY "Freedom of Speech Tour" crisscrosses North America.  The film examines the band's connection to its audience in both political and musical terms, and examines the relationship between Vietnam-era anti-war sentiment and today's post-9/11 environment. A Vietnam veteran sums it all up: "It's deja vu all over again."

 

Long Synopsis:

Since their debut in the late 'sixties, Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young have functioned as the "town criers" of their generation. With songs like "Ohio" and "Find the Cost of Freedom", CSNY were in the forefront of Vietnam-era protest and anti-war sentiment. Though fondly remembered for their harmonies and love songs, the band has never lost their political edge.

 

"CSNY: Deja Vu" finds the band heading out on their "Freedom of Speech 2006" of North America, featuring music from Neil Young's controversial "Living With War" CD. With "Embedded" reporter Mike Cerre aboard, the film documents audience reactions to the music and the band's ongoing connection with its fans, all against the backdrop of the Iraq/Afghanistan War.  The film also examines events surrounding the Tour in the crucial election season of 2006.

 

Songs from the tour are woven together with archival material, news footage, and audience reaction and observations, as the film examines the issues surrounding the integration of politics  and art.

 

About the Director:

Bernard Shakey is the autocratic Svengali behind a series of films featuring Neil Young.  His films include (Journey Though The Past, Rust Never Sleeps, Human Highway, greendale). His company name, Shakey Pictures, provides an apt description of the relationship between the director and Mr. Young.
