  • Neil Young performs "Cowgirl in the Sand" at the Farm Aid concert in Seattle, Washington on September 18, 2004.
    Farm Aid was started by Willie Nelson, Neil Young and John Mellencamp in 1985 to keep family farmers on the land and has worked since then to make sure everyone has access to good food from family farmers. Dave Matthews joined Farm Aid's board of directors in 2001.

    Farm Aid's performances are donated by the artists in order to raise funds and raise awareness for family farmers. They've raised their voices to help - what can you do?

    My heart swells to it's bursting point every time I hear this hauntingly beautiful song. Neil's been my favorite singer songwriter since I was a confused about life 18yr old kid in the 90's, through a 20 plus year battle with addiction and now a 47 yr old man child still trying to figure this life out but finally getting the hang of it. Your music has colored the soundtrack of my life beautifully Neil, thank you.

    Neil Young is the reason I started tuning my guitars to C and D standard!! If y'all haven't tried it, it opens up the low end of the guitar so much and adds boatloads of warmth to your standard cowboy chords. He's in C standard here.

    • @ddude1212
      @ddude1212 3 месяца назад

      @@Stringbean421 Yep!! For D standard, you lower all of your strings a whole step (D G C F A D), and for C standard (the tuning he's using in this video) you lower your strings two whole steps (C F Bb Eb G C). He would also incorporate the philosophy of drop D and double drop D into these tunings by further lowering the 6th and/or 1st strings another whole step, like in Don't Let it Bring You Down where he tunes to double drop C (C G C F A C).

    • @MrCretemaniam
