    He’s talking about Cortés’ destruction of the Aztec empire in the 16th century. Thanks for the reaction! Neil Young has made some of the best music since the 60s, multiple genres, a legend.

    It needs saying: Neil Young is a guitar god. He has influenced countless players. Unlike most guitar gods, with Neil its never been about speed but more his absolute mastery & control. A song like this really highlights his genius and ability to communicate complex emotions.

      His guitar playing is understated ,beautiful and mad all in one go 🙂

      People do forget about his playing. I love his electric tone from this era. Cortez is one of my favorites.

      You are spot on. One soul grabbing emotionally charged played at the right time says more than a hundred musically empty shredded notes

    My Dad listened to Neil Young so I was raised listening to Crazy Horse. I was also raised listening to Pink Floyd, The Doors, Aerosmith, The Steve Miller Band, Fleetwood Mac, Led Zeppelin, Tom Petty, and The Beatles just to name a few. My parents had excellent taste in music ❤

    One of the greatest of Neil's slow-burning jams, this song was banned in Spain when it was released, as the Spanish government didn't like the (accurate) portrayal of Cortez as a murderer. Great choice, and great reaction!

    Neil Young is The MAN. He is massively underrated as a guitar player, and this song is proof of that. "Cortez The Killer" is the story of Hernando Cortez, a Spanish Conquistador who went to Mexico to find gold, and wound up destroying the Aztec culture, Montezuma was their king. Seen The MAN four times in concert, and each show was a completely different event in presentation and set list. The best way to catch up on Neil is to watch his concert film "Rust Never Sleeps" recorded in 1978, and directed by Neil, under the name Bernard Shakey. A masterpiece.

    Neil Young and Crazy Horse were on another level. So much low end, and Neil's dirty and dissonant guitar, I loved this band and this song. Saw them live in 96, rib-crushingly heavy and beautiful at the same time.

  • @chrisgott3456

    Oh my God! Neil Young is a legend among legends. Famous musicians even current day love and follow the Godfather of Grunge! He has no style and every style one could imagine or not with one unforgettable tune after another that everyone of my era and the. Ext and the next are familiar with many of Neil’s songs.Try reacting to these great ones; Southern Man, Old Man, Like a Hurricane, Comes a Time,Cinnamon Girl, and Don’t Let It Bring You Down!

      He and Crazy Horse also do a killer version on 'Weld', from Neil's early 90s tour.

    As to one approach on how to get a laid back feel like this, the drummer and guitarist are on angel dust and the bassist and Neil are fucked on tequila and weed. Loose…. Glorious

  • @charliecochran3035
    @charliecochran3035 Год назад +3

    That's a pretty long song and a lot of words for Neil to say what's really on his mind...that she's gone and he still hasn't grasped how it happened. The whole Zuma album is themed this way.

    Neil Young never talked about how many people the Aztecs sacrificed over the years war was never known complete and utter bullshit they went into the forest and took people as slaves and used them in their sacrifice to say the Aztecs act like war was never known and they were peaceful it’s just utter foolishness the song might be good but the information is bullshit.
