Premiere: Neil Young & Crazy Horse, ‘Walk Like a Giant’ Rockers remain off camera in their new video
By Rolling Stone September 25, 2012 1:00 PM
Neil Young and Crazy Horse fans, your nearly decade-long wait for new material is finally over. Here is the premiere of their video for “Walk Like a Giant.” No member of the band actually appears in this video. Instead, it’s footage of giants of history (real and imagined) like Bigfoot, Albert Einstein and the Atomic bomb. The song is over 16 minutes on the album, but they’ve shaved it down to under five for the video. It’s one of six new songs that Neil Young and Crazy Horse debuted last month on tour.
The album hits shelves on October 30th. It’s just eight songs long, but some of them are so long it’s a double album. The tour resumes in early October and runs through December.

Well Hello, Mr. Soul
By DAVID CARR
Like a lot of people, I often read something in the magazine that involved a writer going to see this or that music/film/theater icon and think about how lucky that writer was. This week it was my turn.
My pinch-me moment was getting to ride around in a car on Neil Young’s ranch for several hours. Not because I am a Neil Young person per se – I saw the “Rust Never Sleeps” tour, “Trans” and have seen him play with Crazy Horse and solo several other times – but because, well, he’s Neil Young. It’s hard to think of an artist of any genre who has endured so long with as much significance as Young. And over and over, he did it his way, ignoring convention and expectation on general principal.

When you\'re findin\' out it\'s real? ” by -- Neil Young
