"Oh! Susanna": Dave Matthews and Neil Young
One of the bigger surprises from Bridge 2011 weekend was the pairing of Dave Matthews & Neil Young on "Oh! Susanna".
For many, this was a concert highlight.
As we mentioned recently, with all of the anticipation for the upcoming album Americana by Neil Young & Crazy Horse, there's been a lot of focus on the song "Oh! Susannah".
Yesterday, we posted The Big 3's "The Banjo Song (Oh Suzanna!)" from 1963. And before that, the campy Bananarama cover of "Venus" which is a cult classic YouTube video by Shocking Blue which is based off of the Americana tune "Oh! Susannah" and its riffs. "Venus" was written by Robbie van Leeuwen and originally recorded by Shocking Blue for their 1969 album, "At Home".
And just as we were reminded about The Byrds version of "Oh Susanna" and James Taylor with Johnny Cash's version of "Oh Susanna" along comes another "Oh Susanna" version.

The 'official' video footage looks about as old as the original song.
Flac download now up for those who pre-ordered from Neil's site. Had a listen there, sounds good and don't feel like a racist afterwards ;)
Can't wait to hear what MNOTR has to say about juvenile smoking.
