  • @faresayar1904
    This is pure passion, love, simplicity and some more love. Damn how I wish I can turn time back to be with those bunch of lovely people.

    Nils' voice is a perfect fit for Neil Young's Like a Hurricane.
  • @user-yd8gd3rc3c
    The horns, the fiddle, accordian, just f'n cool, so melodic. Sorry it took me so long to find this.

    What an incredibly good bunch of good people! That's what I love the most about this Hurricane rendition. Gray hair, blonde and young hair, skin color differences, unity, one purpose, that's how we achieve the most beautiful things in our world. A perfect example of the beautifulness that diversity can nourish our better world with. I am celebrating this event deeply and with utmost respect in my heart that when we co-exist, we achieve the greatest of things.
  • Magnificent version of this song! The accordion adds emotion, the fiddles add charm, the trumpet adds power and the sax gives it a Jazz vibe!
  • How on Earth this kind of song can be written AND this kind of performance can be done??

    Like a Hurricane? Like A Classic! Well done Nils/Neil!
  • @culturesgroup
    Love the accordion! And fiddle. Nils is so supremely gifted. People still have no idea what he’s accomplished in the last fifty plus years. Wish he did an accordion riff! This is great.

    I found this in a random search, glad I did. I listened to it out of curiosity because this is 1 of my favorites and I remember Nils's name from my hippie days.
  • Saw Nils playing in Neil Young's band on the Trans tour at Wembley Arena in 1982. Still one of the best gigs I've ever been to. And they did a great version of Like A Hurricane that night!
