EXTRAORDINARY 1984 BROADCAST RECORDING FROM NEIL YOUNG & CRAZY HORSE! In 1984, Young toured with both the International Harvesters during the annum’s second leg, while earlier, in February, he stepped out, briefly, with Crazy Horse. The ‘1984 California Club Tour’ was a 2-date, 4-show residency at Santa Cruz’s Catalyst Club, across the 6th & 7th of the month, with two shows played on each day. The late show on the 7th was recorded for FM Radio Broadcast, and is released here, in its entirety, for the first time on vinyl. A quite extraordinary show for a number of reasons, not least the dynamic performance the band gave, but even more enticing is that the audience were treated to no-less-than five previously unreleased cuts. Kicking off with a pair of such in ‘Rock, Rock, Rock’ and ‘So Tired ‘ , the group pepper the rest of the gig with three further gems absent from any NY albums, both then and now: ‘I Got A Problem’, ‘Stand By Me’ and ‘Touch The Night’.
