“Keep On Rocking in the Free World” by Neil Young with Pearl Jam (live from the MTV Music Awards)

I remember the first time I saw this. I thought it was such an odd mix, with a new alternative band and some old school rock guy on stage together. But as I watched, they had a tremendous chemistry on stage. Going forward, the reverence the members of the Seattle sound bands had for Neil Young seemed perfectly placed. Young was a do-it-yourself musician who did not make decisions based on financial success or for a need of increased celebrity. Basically, he was not only a good pairing with Pearl Jam, he was, indeed, the godfather of grunge.
