Neil Young's Rocking Rebellion: New Music, Amazon Boycott, and Benefit Concert

Neil Young BioSnap a weekly updated Biography. Neil Young has been making waves in recent days with both his music releases and his political stances. The legendary rocker announced he's celebrating the 50th anniversary of his iconic 1975 album Tonight's the Night with a limited edition reissue dropping November 28th. According to reports from multiple entertainment outlets, the reissue will feature six bonus tracks including previously unreleased material like an original version of Lookout Joe and an alternative take on the title track. Other unreleased gems include Walk On from the 1973 recording sessions at S.I.R. in Los Angeles, plus tracks like Wonderin, Everybody's Alone, and a collaboration with Joni Mitchell on Raised on Robbery. But Young isn't just looking backward. The 79-year-old is also scheduled to perform at the Harvest Moon benefit concert on October 25th at the Painted Turtle Camp in Lake Hughes, California, where he'll be joined by Beck and Lana Del Rey for what promises to be a memorable evening supporting a good cause. On the controversial side, Young has once again taken a stand against big tech, this time targeting Amazon. In an October 8th post on his Neil Young Archives website, the outspoken musician announced plans to pull his entire catalog from Amazon Music, citing his opposition to Jeff Bezos's alleged support for President Trump. Young urged his fans to forget Amazon and Whole Foods, writing in his characteristic all-caps style that people should buy local and support their communities instead of big corporations that have sold out America. He specifically criticized what he called the Corporate Control Age and insisted that Amazon needs consumers more than consumers need Amazon. This isn't Young's first rodeo with streaming platform boycotts. He famously pulled his music from Spotify in 2022 over Joe Rogan's podcast spreading COVID misinformation, though he reluctantly returned two years later when other platforms also began carrying Rogan's show.
