Young, who previously announced his withdrawal from Farm Aid because of rising COVID-19 concerns, has now followed that bad news with some good. Carnegie Hall was originally recorded on an analog multitrack, says a press release from the artist, from a gig on December 4, 1970.
And, according to the release, five more concert selections will become available in 2022.
The setlist for Carnegie Hall 1970 includes songs like, “Everybody Knows This Is Nowhere,” “Down By the River,” “Helpless,” and“Sugar Mountain.” Full tracklisting below:
