Video of the Moment: Time Fades Away - Konig Pilsner Arena, Oberhausen, Germany - 7/9/08
The Video of the Moment is "Time Fades Away" at Konig Pilsner Arena, Oberhausen, Germany on 7/9/08. This is the first performance in 35 years!
You know, it's never to late to sign the Release "Time Fades Away" petition. About 15,000 signatures have been gathered over the past 3 years.
With any luck maybe Time Fades Away will be released before Archives Volume 5 in 2039?
Thanks Simpson!
And the Philzone Phan Community Board reacts to the news. Thanks Chris "Cannoneer"!

WOW, what a great version after all these years! He manages to keep the raw edge in it just like in the LP released version! Unbelieviably cool. Thank you Thrasher and thank you Neil!

As I posted on Rust, the last time Neil Young played Time Fades Away, I was a junior in high school and I'm 52 now. This performance is amazing. Thanks to all for making this available so fast.

Heck, the last time Neil played Time Fades Away, I was 2 months old.
ReplyDeleteI agree, a surprisingly good performance after so many years. Thanks for posting.
Thanks fo rmaking this available. A REAL treasure. I read the reports of Neil singing TFA with incredulity, amazement, envy, & wonder.For those there whern this was performed -well it's something that can never be taken away from you.
ReplyDeleteNice slideshow as well. Especially like the photo of Neil sitting on the car. Great shot I've never seen before.
So love this album !
Which boot is this audio sourced from - there are three versions of this show up where I usually look. Anyone know? The sound is excellent - raw but listenable.
ReplyDeleteAfter listening to the track,i dusted off my vinyl copy and gave it a spin.Brings back the memories.At the same time of it's release,the "Tonight's the night tour was on.I think !!!
