Cinnamon Girl

A 1991 concert version of the song from Neil Young's 1969 album, Everybody Knows This Is Nowhere.  Featuring a lot of guitar with a classic riff, including a musical quote from Norwegian Wood near the end.

I've always liked that the song ended with a chorus that lyrically had nothing to do with any of the previous lyrics, but sounded great on its own. 

Pa send me money now
I'm gonna make it somehow
I need another chance
You see your baby loves to dance
Yeah...yeah...yeah.


And while we're at it, here's another Neil live rocker from the same era, Rockin' In The Free World, in which he solos while simultaneously trying to strangle the guitar.
