Pegi Young sings of the heartbreak she endured when Neil Young cheated on her and their decades-long marriage and left her for Daryl Hannah, in her new album: “RAW.”
You can listen to a National Public Radio interview with Ms. Young at:
She sings: “Why’d you have to ruin ,my life, why’d you have to be so mean, why’d you have to tell me some lies, why not be straight with me.” She calls the album her “seven stages of grief.”
Here is the first song posted from the album set to be released this month:
If you haven’t checked out Neil Young’s video “My Pledge,” do it now.
Rolling Stone writes: “The clip opens on a pile of old letters and notices that are cleared to make room for a piece of lined paper that begins to fill with Young’s words, which he both speaks and sings with thick Auto-Tune throughout ‘My Pledge.’
The initial letter is folded into a paper boat and sent across a sea of stamps, after which Young’s vivid lyrics and the images and people they evoke – including Jimi Hendrix, John F. Kennedy and Florence Nightingale – appear on an array of postcards.”
This once-in-a-lifetime concert will take place in Indio, California on October 7, 8 and 9 when six of the world’s most iconic and influential rock and roll artists come together.
We’ve got Neil Young, Bob Dylan, The Who, The Rolling Stones, Paul McCartney, and Rogers Waters sharing a stage for three days. Alone, maybe together?
Tickets range from $199 for a single day to $1,600 for three-day pit passes or reserved floor or grandstand seats.
