Neil Young: Heart of Gold

Poignant songs with memorable, timeless lyrics and a terrific soundtrack highlight this nostalgic Jonathan Demme concert documentary in which legendary and illusive singer/songwriter Neil Young and members of his band, including Pegi Young, Spooner Oldham, Ben Keith, Emmylou Harris, Grant Boatwright, Rick Rosas, Diana DeWitt, Jimmy Sharp, Tom McGinley, Anthony Crawford, Clinton Gregory, Larry Cragg, Chad Cromwell, and Karl T. Himmel, and guest performers Wayne Jackson, the Fisk University Jubilee Singers, and the Nashville String Machine performed their moving, entertaining, full-length Prairie Wind concert in August 2005 at the Ryman Auditorium in Nashville that was composed of touching songs inspired by Neil Young's fading dreams, memories of his childhood growing up in Canada with his family and friends, and pivotal experiences that fueled and shaped the storyteller, such as a brain aneurysm scare and 9/11.
