"Burned" by Neil Young in Concert in Dublin, Ireland - 6/21/09

First live performance of Buffalo Springfield song "Burned" in 40+ years by Neil Young in concert in Dublin, Ireland on 6/21/09 from YouTube.

Thanks BSM & nychnych!

According to Young's own account of this song from the Decade liner notes:

"My first vocal ever done in a studio late 1966 (Gold Star). The boys gave me some uppers to get my nerve up. Maybe you can hear that. I was living in a $12.50 per week apartement at the time and everybody on the floor liked it too. We stayed up all night listening to it."

I remember him dedicating that song in '89 to those killed in Tianamen Square in China. This is eerily similar ... and the Iranian people need all the help they can get to fight an oppressive, savage and brutal regime trying to suppress their basic human rights. The world seems far to silent while this is going on. In these instances, Neil has often taken a stand.

About the 'silence of the world', well, maybe it's despair and exhaustion at yet another flairup of brutality in an already overburdened world. Even Ireland has had recent violence just when things seemed to calm down.

I wouldn’t agree that the whole world is silent. There is a huge online effort to help. Pissing in the wind? Maybe, but it still feels good.

Enlighten me Dublinese!

Wondering Dip..

I notice he's still wearin' that T shirt with the aboriginal flag!

Treaty Yeah!! Treaty Yeah!
At 6/24/2009 04:25:00 PM, Worthless Recluse said...: That's his shirt on his left shoulder - he took it half off early on and just left it like that for most of the rest of the set!

I hope this sparks a trend of him dusting off other rarities from years past.

Cheers,

Apparently that was the first song where he did the lead vocal duties when he recorded it with Buffalo Springfield back in the mid-60's and now 40 years later he has blown the dust off the tune and played it for all us to hear.

Neil's the man

keep rockin' Neil!
