Darwin Entertainment Centre presents THE HUMAN HIGHWAY 50 YEARS OF NEIL YOUNG'S 'HARVEST' ALBUM Join The Human Highway to celebrate 50 years of Neil Young’s Harvest album. 1972 was a year memorable for the Munich Olympics, a landslide victory to US President Richard Nixon and later, the Watergate scandal coming to light. Closer to home, Gough Whitlam became the first labour Prime Minister in 23 years, while that year’s Ashes series saw the emergence of Dennis Lillee as a giant of the game. John Lennon and Carole King topped US album charts before Neil Young landed at no.1 on the Billboard’s album charts with Harvest. It was eventually the biggest seller of 1972 and his most commercially successful album, spawning the No.1. hit ‘Heart of Gold’. Harvest was also remarkable for the collaboration with the London Symphony Orchestra on the tracks 'A Man Needs a Maid' and 'There’s a World'. The Human Highway is fronted by long time lovers of Neil Young, David Hyams and Rose Parker and the six-piece line up also includes some of Australia’s finest - Roy Martinez on bass and keyboards, Russell Wilson on drums, fiddler Adam Gare, and Jeremy Threlfall on pedal steel and guitar. Together they’ll perform Harvest in its entirety, along with The Human Highway mix of songs that covers music from the beginning of Young’s solo career in the late '60s , right through to the 21st century. Supported by Otherside Brewery, the makers of ‘Harvest’ Beer – who will put on a special promotion to mark the occasion.
