Watch Bob Dylan and Neil Young Share the Stage for the First Time Since 1994

Bob Dylan and Neil Young recently did a co-headlining show in Kilkenny, Ireland and treated the audience with a special duet performance of popular Christian hymn “Will the Circle Be Unbroken.” This marked the first time in 25 years that the duo was on stage together. The last time Dylan and Young shared the stage was in 1994 at New York’s Roseland Ballroom.

Dylan and Young did a co-headlining show at London’s Hyde
Park last week but did not perform together.

Young posted a snippet of their joint performance on his
Instagram profile, while several fan-made clips surfaced since then. Check them
below.

Bob Dylan extensively played “Will the Circle Be
Unbroken” early in his career, and recorded a studio version with the Band
during the Basement
Tapes
sessions in 1967. Dylan hasn’t played the song since his Rolling
Thunder Revue tour in 1976.

Neil Young, on the other hand, first did the song in 1975 at
Kezar Stadium in San Francisco with Dylan. Since then, Young performed the song
four times with Willie Nelson. The last time Young and Nelson did the song was
in September 2018 during a show in Saratoga Springs.
