The set captures Young with the Santa Monica Flyers in performance at the Rainbow Theatre in London, where the rocker is joined by a lineup that includes Nils Lofgren (lead and rhythm guitar, piano, accordion, vocals), Ben Keith (pedal steel guitar, vocals), Billy Talbot (bass, vocals) and Ralph Molina (drums, vocals).
Referenced as a night of high-wire performances and semi-unhinged sonics, the concert has taken on a mythic legend in the past 50 years, as all the musicians were in a free-form state of mind and swung for the fences on every track.
“Somewhere Under The Rainbow” is now available in multiple formats, including vinyl, CD and digital, with Hi-res digital audio available at Neil Young Archives and most DSPs.
