5.0 out of 5 stars Fun concert--worth checking out! June 6, 2011
Format:DVD
This is a completely enjoyable through Neil's songbook by a bunch of extremely talented artists. Both Dave Matthews and Ben Harper show what great musicians they are by largely solo acoustic performances, Keith Urban shows off his lead guitar chops (in tandem with no less a legend than John Fogerty of CCR), and CSN show that they can still harmonize beautifully. Performances by Norah Jones, Lady Antebellum, and Jason Mraz/Shawn Colvin show of the often ignored sweeter side of Neil. And Wilco's on-stage replication of the very complex studio creation Broken Arrow is just amazing.

Does Neil do all these songs better? Of course! Any major talent, from Dylan and the Beatles on down always does their own material best. But these are still very enjoyable versions that give one a different take on Neil's artistry.

5.0 out of 5 stars Your favorite artists do Neil justice June 30, 2011
By Neva
Format:Blu-ray|Amazon Verified Purchase
I started watching this concert on TV and ordered it on Amazon before it was even over. So many of my favorite artist singing Neil Young songs...what could be better? The awesome and unusual pairing of Keith Urban and John Fogerty was amazing with a little help from Booker T. Jones. One of my very very favs, Dave Matthews doing "The Needle and the Damage Done" was perfect. Also, Lady Antebellum, Norah Jones, Josh Groban, (yes folks, Josh doing Neil Young),Ben Harper, Jackson Browne, Elvis Costello, James Taylor, John Mellencamp, CSN, Elton & Leon...to say this is an all star line up is an understatement. The keyboard player in the background,who you can hardly see, but is playing on most of the songs, is Rami Jaffee from The Wallflowers(Jakob Dylans band)and Foo Fighters. He is great and highly underrated as a keyboard player. If you love Neil and any of these artists, this is a must have.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Tributes June 3, 2011
Format:Blu-ray
I'm sorry but, the other reviews for this are absurd. This is a TRIBUTE to one of the greatest songwriters of our times and all of the performers do excellent. Regardless of whether or not you like each individual cover, it's the passion that these multiple musicians have for Mr. Young. I was very touched when Dave Matthews sang "The Needle and the Damage Done" and, at the end, gave Neil Young a big thumbs up. You could really see how much he cared. In my opinion, all of the performances were spot on. If I could give this 6 stars, I would.
