Goodbye Waterface

A gritty, unofficial live document of the Ditch Trilogy era. Ragged electric anthems and fragile acoustic laments captured in their rawest, most vulnerable state.

It's Neil Young at his most beautifully unraveled, recorded when the 70s started to feel like a hangover.

A heavy, whiskey-soaked descent into grief and defiance that feels both exhausted and electric.

Moments Worth Waiting For

The ragged, desperate opening chords of Tonight's the Night that set a dark, mourning tone for the entire set.

The contrast between the delicate fingerpicking of Needle and the Damage Done and the surrounding electric chaos.

The sprawling, feedback-laced guitar workout on Cinnamon Girl that feels both triumphant and exhausted.
