Product Description

Product Description

Academy-award winning director Jonathan Demme beautifully captures Rock & Roll Hall of Fame legend, Neil Young as he prepares and presents the performance of a lifetime with the help of his wife Peggi and friends country star Emmylou Harris, steel guitarist Ben Keith and more at Nashville’s Grand Ole Opry.

Amazon.com

"I just want to play well, share the stage with my friends, give the best I can," says Neil Young before the concert that is the centerpiece of Heart of Gold. No problem, dude. Working with filmmaker Jonathan Demme, Young has come up with a gem--not all flash and bling-bling, but as understated as a single pearl, musically restrained yet emotionally open. Of course, neither Demme (an Oscar winner for The Silence of the Lambs; he also helmed Talking Heads' Stop Making Sense) nor Young would call it "a concert film"; the director describes it as "a dream concert, something that's literally being dreamt by Neil," while the singer-songwriter himself calls it "a multi-level story." Whatever, the project came together in 2005, as Young was finishing his Prairie Wind album (the latest in a string of lovely, country-flavored acoustic recordings dating back to 1972's Harvest) and preparing to debut the music at Nashville's fabled Ryman Auditorium, home of the Grand Ole Opry. The fact that Young had also recently experienced a brain aneurysm might or might not have influenced his decision to film the show, but it certainly seems to have had an effect on the music. He and his band (which, with the addition of horns, strings, and backup singers, including Emmylou Harris, occasionally numbers forty or more musicians) perform Prairie Wind in its entirety, and there is some deeply moving, highly personal material here; in addition to the gospel-tinged "When God Made Me" and the dirge-like "No Wonder," Young sings about his recently-deceased father (the title song), his newly adult daughter ("Here for You"), the guitar he plays that once belonged to Hank Williams ("This Old Guitar"), and even his dog ("He Was the King"). Demme's direction is ideal for conveying the music's restrained acoustic textures, rich backing vocals, and simple, elegant melodies. Shots are held much longer than is usual in such films, and while there are lots of close-ups, there are no gimmicks. This superb DVD package is filled out by a second disc of bonus features, including a variety of featurettes and a solo performance of "The Needle and the Damage Done" from The Johnny Cash Show in 1971. --Sam Graham

Lots of Nostalgia
This is a great album recorded in Nashville at the grand old Opry. It includes most of Neil's best-known songs but sung live on stage approximately two weeks before the singer was to have had surgery to eliminate aneurysms in his head. If you are a Neil Young fan you should really love this album which has a lot of nostalgia built in.

5.0 out of 5 stars Tryin to remember what Daddy said.....
Reviewed in the United States on April 26, 2006

There is a lot to recommend this film - Young's best music in a very long time, the twin passionate motivators of his father's passing from dementia and his own brush with an aneurism, the brilliant musicianship of all the support players, and perhaps most importantly, Emmylou Harris. (hopefully there will be some additional material on the dvd)I can't think of any better pairing in music than these two, and it has always been that way. More so than with CSN, CH, whatever garbanzo group he cobblers together, the moment he and Harris collaborate, whatever the song, it takes on a majesty that is unsurpassed in my ears. In all honesty, in this film, Harris is riveting. It is as much her film, in a supporting role, as it is Young's, and that is without attempting to grandstand. It is the pairing that does it.

The first half of the film is devoted to PRAIRIE WIND, its recording and presentation on stage. Demme delivers as impressive a tableaux for Neil as he did for Talking Heads. You'd forget altogether the coked stumble bum of THE LAST WALTZ, or even the crazed Dylan uber-fan from the Zimmerman tribute. Demme gets up close with Neil and lets his sardonnic humour shine through. To Young's credit, he knows the camera is there and slyly mocks it, and the whole genre of concert footage. At the opening he explains he never asks for any particular musicians and just goes with the flow of who is assembled. Then all of the supporting players tell how he has explicitly asked for them. It is just a perfect example of an extraordinarily dry wit who, as he explains in the background of the story about Louis Avila, "I'm just lucky, I guess."

The second half of the film reminds you just how powerful his country-folk-rock material is, be it the incredible take on "Four Strong Winds" (any Canadian kid worth his salt knows this better than O Canada), the aforementioned "Old Man," the acknowledgement to Nicollete Larsen with "Lotta Love," or the show stopping tour de force song to his dog with Emmylou matching him rif for rif and harmonizing like her life depended on it. The instensity of these two locked in on this song especially, but in nearly every song she's featured in, takes this concert to a place almost no other Neil Young concert I have ever seen reaches. There is a point in STOP MAKING SENSE where you wonder can the band can be any more incendiary than it is. You'll hit that same point with Young's canine ode. In fairness, everyone in the band is on fire by that point, it's just that Harris and Young take this terrific tune to the temple of the gods and offer it up to Music itself. The audience in the movie theatre stood and applauded.

The film ends with a solo, empty theatre version of "The Old Laughing Lady." And that profoundly reminds you why Young put both this concert and this record together. This early metaphor of death haunts the screen as Young packs up and walks off the stage, his boots knocking on the Nashville floor, his face clearly brooding, tryin to remember what Daddy said...

I have been a Young fan since my days in high school in the 1960's. This film blew me away. The songs are from a man who is realizing his own mortality. We are all growing older, especially those of us who grew up with Young. Young is singing songs about family, his daughter, wife, his father who passed away right before the concert, his dog and dreams. Growing older makes you think about all of these things and I believe Neil is looking at his life in retrospect. The filming of the concert was first rate, the band was unique and wonderful, the sound was well mixed. The songs brought tears to my eyes as I related some of the songs to my own life.
Neal, if you read this, thank you for all the music you have brought into my life. I have loved most all of it. Young has not been afraid to change styles through the years and I praise him for that. He is one of a handfull from the 60's and 70's still performing and writing new material.
Bottom line, buy this video. You will watch it over and over. It's that good.
Neil has never been afraid to go where the music has taken him, from the tearing up of ol Blackie to the songs that are the little short diddies that stick in your head.
Neil is a perfectionest in his own way, hears every note played by every instrument, every nuance.

I have to rate this as one of his best. It's an album I have to watch every couple of months. It makes me smile, brings a tear and makes me wish for the time when life was so much simplier. A time we will never get back to.
God Bless you and Your family Neil. Somehow I don't think this will be the last we will hear from Neil. I don't know how it could get any better, but Neil always surprises me.
By the way, the rendition of "The old Laughing Lady" during the credits was increadable, you made the gutiar do things it was never meant to, it was awe inspiring.
The album takes me back to the better days in my life and I think in the lives of all who were here during Neils entire time spent adding so much to our lives. Music is one of life's greatest pleasures, Neil is and has always been a huge pert of that during my 58 years. What a fantastic tribute to "Daddy" also. Mine is still alive, I thank the Lord for that, but who knows how much longer, only God.

A la première écoute, je n'ai pas aimé 80 % du DVD. Mais ensuite, cela change d'écoute en écoute pour devenir l'un des plus grands concerts de ce millénaire selon moi. Neil young prouve par l’expérience qu'il restera l'un des musiciens les plus brillants de l'histoire. Les artistes qui l'accompagnent sont incroyables et l'atmosphère est énorme. Chapeau bas, très très bas !! On dit que Neil young vieillit mal sur les chansons, bah là, il remet les pendules à l'heure, le old-timer !!

5.0 out of 5 stars Bester Country Konzert Film aller Zeiten ..?

Klar, ganz schön gewagt, aber für irgend was muss man sich entscheiden. Und das habe ich getan - und mich entschieden für einen Film, der mir nur durch einen Zufall über den Weg gelaufen ist - im Fernsehen!

Für mich ist "Heart of Gold" aus dem Jahr 2006 der beste Country Film überhaupt - Gratulation an Jonathan Demme für dieses Meisterwerk.

Ich weiß nicht, wie oft ich diese DVD im letzten Jahr seit dem Kauf schon gesehen habe - aber sie läuft immer vom ersten bis zum letzten Titel und ich bin jedesmal wie elektrisiert. Das ebenso großartige wie melancholische Konzert schlägt einen immer wieder in seinen Bann.
Neil Young in Bestform und natürlich sind neben allen anderen auch die Augenweiden Emmylou Harris und Ehefrau Pegi ein Genuss.

Und: Nichts gegen Jonny Cash oder den Urheber Ian Tyson, aber die Version von Neil Youngs "Four Strong Winds", einem Song, den er zu recht als einen der schönsten je von ihm gehörten bezeichnet, diese Version von ihm ist die beste von allen nach meiner Einschätzung.

Aber genug des Lobes, diese DVD MUSS man einfach haben, wenn man je ein Country Konzert im "Plattenschrank" haben will. Danke rückwirkend also an Bayern3 (??, bin nicht ganz sicher) für die damalige Ausstrahlung, die ich atemlos bis zum Schluss verfolgte, bevor ich dann am nächsten Tag die DVD bestellte und zum endgültigen Neil Young Fan wurde ...
