REM & Neil Young: Bridge School 1998

The upcoming Bridge School Concerts set is something of a mixed bag, as you'd expect - but the video here of REM and an impressively bearded Neil playing 'Country Feedback' has real class. Michael Stipe in wonderful voice and looking decidedly starstruck; Neil doing his thing as if he'd been playing with them for years; Peter Buck generously standing back and laying down a ringing wash of chords...

You can hear the whole collection here, and of course it's all in aid of a very worthy cause.

Happy 25th Anniversary to Bridge School! It's really nice to know that they've been doing this for years and at the same time doing the concert for a worthy cause. Kudos to the people behind Bridge School concerts' success!
