Neil Young & Crazy Horse
From Concert Film Year of The Horse (1996)
A new Timeline Concert of the Moment is now streaming on NYA.
The latest Timeline Concert is from the Broken Arrow tour w/ Crazy Horse at Metro Centre, Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada on Nov 5, 1996.

The 5th November 1996 Neil Young and Crazy Horse show from Halifax, Canada has never circulated amongst fans…
…not even as a bootlegged field recording.
That changes today, because Neil’s archivists have just released the entire gig—professionally recorded from the mixing desk—as a website exclusive “timeline concert”.
It’s basically a new live album in its own right, a full-show accompaniment to Year of the Horse.
If you’re an NYA subscriber, be sure to take a listen (and let me know in the comments what you think).
I will say, right off the bat, that I’ve always wanted to hear this gig —
After all, any setlist that finishes with the one-two punch of the final two songs here (I won’t name them, just in case you want to enjoy the authentic concert experience without a setlist) is certainly an eye-grabber.
But does the actual experience live up to the imagined one?

Incredible sound and energy in this live show.
It’s hard to compete with poncho’s Crazy Horse. Electric Pocahontas is so cool!
Hopefully we will get another chance to hear Micah’s Horse on tour.
But for now we have this show to enjoy! Live music lives on, even on tape!

@ Alan:
Live Music (even on tape) IS Better! Bumper stickers should be issued…
According to Rolling Stone, Neil will be playing a set at Farm Aid. Nothing was said about if he's going solo or with a band.
Archives Vol3 announcement is imminent……… (according to the folks at Steve Hoffman forums)
Australia has the CD set tracklisting with a pic of the CD box set and the video (DVD? Blu-Ray?) set with the bigger box. Also a 2LP sampler releasing, all on 9/6.

thanks for the heads-up on the concert... it brought back a flood of memories for me.
Before the internet you didn't have good access to what was really going down on a tour as it played out, and we were devoid of all the so-called "intelligence" we have now (setlists, online reviews of each show, etc.) So my wife and I got a babysitter for our toddler and went out to see Neil and the Horse in Hamilton, Ontario as he made his way eastward x-Canada on this fall 1996 tour. It was a blessing as he had played a large outdoor show in Barrie (just north of Toronto) a month or two beforehand but it was happening on a long weekend and we were conflicted. So for us this was the very welcome consolation show, and we were also jazzed to be able to see Neil on Halloween night.
It was an absolute killer show and I remember how it went on and on and on. To the point that we were much later getting home to the babysitter than expected. Something that rarely happens these days, with all the city bylaws and contract regulations serving to govern the promoter/the act and button the whole damn thing down with such certainty.
Looking at the setlist just now, it was essentially the Halifax show (minus TTN) but for some reason the boys extended it out for 24 long, drawn-out songs. Toggling other the setlists of shows adjacent to it on the tour by a month or two reveal that some concerts in that strain regularly only presented as few as 14 songs overall. Why we were so blessed in the Hammer that night escapes me, but I always recalled it mostly fondly and this concert tape from a handful of nights later in Halifax brings it all back like it was yesterday.
