Funny Hoe Times Slips Away (Wilie Nelson)

Well, hello there,
My it's been a long, long time
How am I doin',
Well, I guess I'm doin' fine.
It's been so long now
That it seems like
It was only yesterday
Ain't it funny how time slips away.
How's your new love?
I hope he's doin' fine.
I heard you told him,
You were going to love him
Until the end of time.
Well, that's the same thing
That you told me
And it seems like it was just the other day
Ain't it funny how time slips away.
I gotta go now,
I guess I'll see you somewhere around
You never can tell
When I'll be right back in town.
But just remember what I told you
That some day, some day your gonna pay
Ain't it funny how time slips away.
Ain't it funny how time slips away...

Neil Young & The Shocking Pinks (1983)

Neil & The Shocking Pinks Live Dayton,Ohio 18 Sept.1983

In 1983 bracht Neil Young de rockabilly plaat ,,Everybody,s Rockin,,uit.Dit tegen de zin van platenfirma Geffen,die er dan ook weinig energie aan spendeerde.Toch deed Neil in de herfst van 1983 een tournee met The Shocking Pinks en The Pinkettes,een dansende meisjes groep onder leiding van Pegi Young.


Payola Blues (this one is for you Alan!)

Payola Blues is opgedragen aan Alan Freed.Het nummer is een aanklacht tegen het pluggen van platen tegen forse vergoedingen ,en in een later stadium tegen sponsering.Alan Freed begon als hulpje in een platen winkel ,en vestigde als eerste disk jocky de aandacht op Rock & Roll en Rythm & Blues.Hij werd een belangrijk figuur in de verspreiding van de destijds ,,nieuwe ,,muziek.In 1960 echter werd Freed,s carriere verknald op beschuldiging van het aannemen van steekpenningen(Payola)Alan Freed stierf in de grootste armoede in 1965


Get Gone (P1)

The Shocking Pinks bestonden uit Ben Keith,Tim Drummond en Karl Himmel.Als achtergrond zangers had Neil Larry Byrom.Anthony Crawford en Rick Palombi aangetrokken,een drietal dat zich The Redwood Boys noemde.Hij had het trio op een album van Tanya Tucker gehoord en was behoorlijk onder de indruk geraakt van hun vocale talenten


get Gone(p2)

De toer verliep behoorlijk succesvol,mede door de invloed van wat radio airplay en het vertonen van de videoclips van ,,Wonderin,, en Cry Cry Cry,,door het gebruik van de video en door de opbouw van de concerten waren de shows vrij speciaal,een mix van ,,Trans,,songs,de bekende Neil Young klassiekers en oud Buffalo Springfield materiaal.


Don,t Throw Your Love

Na de pauze ,,Rockabilly,,Neil ,op een groot scherm gingen de geprojecteerde jaartallen terug tot 1957.op het podium werden door een aantal in het roze geklede roadies de ouderwetse microfoons,versterkers en instrumenten klaargezet .dan kwam Neil Young in een wit pak en met vetkuif het podium op voor een reeks ,Everybody,s Rocking songs.

WHEN RONNY AND NANCY DO THE BOP ON THE LAWN,THEY,RE ROCKING IN THE WHITE HOUSE ALL NIGHT LONG!!

(Everybody,s Rocking 1983)

Note:veel van bovenstaande informatie heb ik uit het prachtige boek van Herman Verbeke en Lucien van Diggelen ,,Neil Young,,

Neil Young & The Restless - Eldorado

Eldorado is an EP released only in Japan and Australia by Neil Young backed by The Restless, which consisted of Chad Cromwell and Rick Rosas.
It contains different mixes of three songs that subsequently appeared on Young's 1989 album Freedom, "Don't Cry," "On Broadway," and "Eldorado," and two tracks not available on any other recording, "Cocaine Eyes" and "Heavy Love."
The "Don't Cry" track on Eldorado is longer than the later version published on Freedom, for which some of the more free-form guitar work was edited out (at the insistence of co-producers Niko Bolas and Frank Sampedro).



Eldorado

 Neil Young & The Restless live at the Memorial Hall Kansas City 01-12 1989

"Eldorado"

In the crystal ball
The gypsy sees the villa
The riders on the hill
The fire in the fields
She sees the mission bell
Swinging in the silence
Now the shooting starts
The bullets pierce the hearts
The seqoritas crying at the well.

Up in the Gold Hotel
The money hits the table
The heavies all are there
That's why the deal's goin' down
Beautiful women all dressed in
Diamonds and sable
Down upon the street
Beside a garbage heap
A Mariachi band begins to play.

Somewhere a blues guitar
Plays echoes in the alleyway
The Tijuana dawn
Claims another day
The golden sun
Rises on the runway
The pilot understands
The money changes hands
Inside the jet
the briefcase snaps. Goodbye.

In Eldorado town
There lives a great bullfighter
His eyes are screaming blue
His hair is red as blood
And when the gate goes up
The crowd gets so excited
And he comes dancin' out
Dressed in gold lami
He kills the bull
and lives another day.
