MORE ARTISTS ADDED TO NEIL YOUNG TRIBUTE CONCERT


Last month, I wrote about the lineup of artists that will be performing at the NARAS MusiCares 2010 Person Of The Year ceremony, paying tribute to Neil Young. They've just announced that Elton John has joined the bill, along with T-Bone Burnett, Leon Russell, Patty Griffin and country-pop group Lady Antebellum. So far, no one has mentioned that The Red Hot Chili Peppers won't be there, so maybe this might be their first performance with new guitarist Josh Klinghoffer.

In other Neil news, the Archives Vol. 1 isn't his only box set out!  He has quietly released remastered versions of his first four solo albums: 1969's Neil Young, 1969's classic Everybody Knows This Is Nowhere (featuring Crazy Horse), 1970's classic After The Gold Rush and 1972's classic Harvest. You can get a box set with all of them on vinyl.
