Sony Pictures Home Entertainment has officially announced that it will release on Blu-ray Neil Young Journeys on October 16th. Shot during the last two nights of Neil Young's 2011 Le Noise world tour, long-time fan and collaborator Jonathan Demme captures the multiple Grammy winner, and two-time Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Inductee with a stunning intimacy both on stage and off.
In May of 2011, Neil Young drove a 1956 Crown Victoria from his idyllic hometown of Omemee, Ontario to downtown Toronto's iconic Massey Hall where he intimately performed the last two nights of his solo world tour. Along the drive, Young recounted insightful and introspective stories from his youth to filmmaker Jonathan Demme (The Silence of the Lambs). Demme, a long-time fan and collaborator, captured these tales of Young's childhood and masterfully weaved them together with his mesmerizing music including live concert performances from the 2010 album Le Noise and powerful renditions of classics including "Ohio", "Hey Hey, My My", "I Believe in You" and previously unreleased songs "Leia" and "You Never Call." Through the tunes and the tales, Demme portrays a personal, retrospective look into the heart and soul of the artist.
