Neil Young Earthy, Fine In Concert
By BOB GILLUM
Kansan Reviewer
Monday night, Neil Young walked on stage in workboots, a blue plaid shirt and jeans. He sat on an old wooden chair and beat out the most down-to-earth music since the "Stones" passed through last summer. The total image of the music, Young on stage, and the old arched dome of Kansas City's Municipal Auditorium was perfect.
Young is on a tour of the states—69 concerts in 90 days—and with Linda Rontstadt and four backup musicians, Jack Nitzsche, Ben Johnny Drummond and Johnny Barbotti.
Ronstadt's short set was at least satisfying. She was tense at first, and the songs were not her best; but "A Long, Long Time" corrected everything. Belting seven songs and an encore of the yet-to-be-released "Love is No Crime," her magnificent voice awed this Ronstadt fan. She deserved more than second billing.
Young started his concert seated with an acoustic guitar and harmonica. His legs stomping out the beat, he soled "On the Way Home" and "Tell Me Why." The sound was clear and steady. He continued with that performance for Weekend. The backpack group joined him to give full treatment to "Harvest," "Old Man," and "Heart of Gold."
Standing with his electric guitar, Young did "The Loner" and a new song called "Time Fades Away" 'Oh You Ma' 'Alabama' 'Lookout Joe' 'Cinnamon Girl' and 'Southern Man' completed the set at full volume. At the piano, Young did "Are You Ready for the Country" for his only encore.
Reprise will release an album of live
songs, the best of the tour.
Young had total stage control throughout the performance. Although he seldom talked or moved around, his techniques were masterful. His guitar work was crisp and vocals were letter perfect; they approximated his records.
sax songs were from the "Harvest" LP. Backup was great on the album, but merely adequate Monday night. Jack Nitzsche's guitar sound was good, and an electric, Ben Keith's steel guitar occasionally clashed with Young's own finger work. The drums seemed to have a bad echo. They did work together, though, and they added "Time Fades Away" and "Cinnamon Girl".
The concert was both relaxed and dazzing. Young seemed pleased, and he said that the audience was very engaged.
Civil Strike Stuns Ports In Britain
LONDON (AP) -- Employees at air and sea ports joined other civil servants in a 24-hour strike Tuesday, Tunisia temporarily customs-free have laen and smuggler's dream.
Then as the 280,000 customers officers and civil servants ended their long anti-government action, train drivers began a new way of traveling that brought the nation's railroads to a standstill.
The strike at ports of entry caused chaos in transportation, suspended baggage inspection and made it possible for a contractaband field day. Scores of flights were grounded and thousands of travelers were stranded.
At midnight, two hours after that nationwide shutdown ended, 29,000 railmen began their strike, paralyzing passenger and freight services.
Half of London's subway trains also were expected to be halted. But ferries run by the state-owned railroad system were expected to operate to Europe and Ireland.
The strikers were protesting the government's anti-inflation pay and prices freeze that has put pay demands from a dozen unions on ice.
Some 750,000 workers are now challenging the government's anti-inflation strategy.
The disruptions were part of a concerted effort by labor unions representing mainly low-paid workers against Prime Minister Edward Heath's attempt to limit pay hikes to about $2.40 plus four per cent of weekly base pay.
Uniones representing low-paid workers are campaigning to break through the government's latest pay ceiling because of a rate of inflation which they claim has made their members poorer than at any time since World War II.
