Neil Young - Down By The River

"Down By The River" is epic Neil Young & Crazy Horse. It's a slow-moving bluesy rock song, more than nine minutes long, and heavy on the guitars in the best Neil Young fashion. It tells the story of a man who catches his woman cheating on him and shooting her "down by the river". Released in 1969 on Neil Young's second solo album Everybody Knows This Is Nowhere, it's still a cornerstone in his output.
