Cowgirl in the Sand (10:00)
270,485 plays (67,522 listeners)
A ten minutes swirl of grunge and psychedelia from Neil’s 1969 album ‘Everybody Knows This Is Nowhere’. Neil wrote the lyrics for this and Down by the River while suffering from a 104 degree (40 °C) fever. In live performances, Neil and Crazy Horse extend it to around sixteen minutes, with extended solo sections.
