We caught up with Lofgren, who is currently on the road with Springsteen, to hear his memories of playing that show 50 years ago and get a few details about his forthcoming solo album. Recorded in November 1973 at London’s Rainbow Theater with the Santa Monica Flyers - Lofgren on guitar and accordion, Talbot on bass, Molina on drums and Ben Keith on pedal steel - it’s an essential glimpse at Young’s legendary Tonight’s the Night tour. Lofgren, Molina and Talbot each contributed three tracks to the album, recorded at home during the pandemic, while Young’s contribution is a live solo version of “Song of the Seasons,” off his 2021 effort with the group, Barn.Īnd All Roads Lead Home isn’t the multi-instrumentalist’s only recent project with Young: Last Friday (April 14), saw the release of Somewhere Under the Rainbow, part of Young’s Original Bootleg Series. To keep in touch and stay busy, he and his Crazy Horse bandmates - Billy Talbot, Ralph Molina and of course, Neil Young - spent their time in lockdown exchanging song ideas they’d each crafted on their own at home and giving one other feedback.Įventually, those songs became All Roads Lead Home, the compilation record (credited to “Molina, Talbot, Lofgren & Young”) released last month. But when the pandemic hit, Nils Lofgren suddenly found himself stuck at home like the rest of us, unable to tour with Crazy Horse or Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band. Being in not one but two legendary bands can be time-consuming, to say the least.
