Last night, Neil Young and Promise of the Real (which features Lukas and Micah Nelson) played in Leeds, U.K.’s First Direct Arena. The group dusted off a song from the rocker’s back catalog that hasn’t been played in 48 years – that’s 1968, for the record. “If I Could Have Her Tonight” appeared on Young’s 1969 self-titled album.
Young started off the number by saying, “This is a song that you probably never even heard in your life….but that’s ok”, before playing the bust out. The group also debuted the track “When You Dance I Can Really Love“. Check out the second live version of “If I Could Have Her Tonight”, courtesy of M. Steiner:
