Bob Dylan and Neil Young Duet
Bob Dylan and Neil Young wrapped up their co-headlining show at Kilkenny, Ireland’s Nowlan Park Sunday evening by performing “Will the Circle Be Unbroken,” marking the first time the two have shared a stage since a show at New York’s Roseland Ballroom in 1994. Quality video has yet to surface, but Young posted a segment of the song on his Instagram page you can see right here.

Young, meanwhile, played the song with Willie Nelson four times between 1995 and 2018. The first time he did it, however, was the 1975 SNACK Benefit at Kezar Stadium in San Francisco. Sharing vocals with him was none other than Dylan. They had been admiring each other’s work for many years at that point, but it was the first time they’d ever played together. Whether or not they meant to mirror their first onstage encounter by playing the song again at Kilkenny is unclear.

‘Stairway to Heaven’ Legal Battle
The Trump administration weighed in on the legal battle over “Stairway to Heaven” this week, with the Department of Justice siding with Led Zeppelin in their copyright dispute with the estate of late Spirit guitarist Randy (California) Wolfe.
Attachment 36540
Although an appeal of the lawsuit against Led Zeppelin is still ongoing, the Justice Department filed an amicus this week in support of previous judge’s ruling that stated that the copyrights of musical compositions prior to 1972 were only protected as sheet music; in 1972, Congress changed the law to protect sound recordings, NBC News reports.

Watch Quavo Travel the World
https://www.rollingstone.com/wp-cont...irgilVideo.jpg
Quavo hits the road, takes to the skies, sails the seas and pretty much employs all modes of transportation in his new video for “Virgil.” The DJ Durel-produced track appears on the recently released Control the Streets, Volume 2 compilation from Atlanta-based label Quality Control.
The new visual finds a bejeweled Quavo smoking and traveling the world via private jet, limo, on a boat and via bicycle and features scenic footage ranging from chilling poolside to hanging in the Netherlands. A serene flute melody ushers in the track as the Migos rapper delivers his laidback rhymes. “I can’t get down/I gotta get up/Yeah, I’m in the pothole, whippin’ a knot ho,” he raps on the hook. “Make ’em go eat it up/Straight out the basement whippin’ Picasso/Young nigga heating up.”

Liverpool’s Strawberry Field
https://www.rollingstone.com/wp-cont...1167699428.jpg
Strawberry Field, the Salvation Army children’s home in Liverpool near John Lennon’s childhood home that inspired the Beatles’ 1967 classic “Strawberry Fields Forever,” opened to the public for the first time Saturday.
The property – a popular tourist destination for Beatles fans that draws a reported 60,000 people a year – had been off-limits for decades, with the grounds walled off by a brick perimeter and a red metal gate.
However, starting today, the gates would open to the public permanently, with the Salvation Army converting the on-site building – which shuttered in 2005 after the original children’s home there was demolished in 1973 – into a visitors’ center focused on Lennon’s Liverpudlian youth.

Earth, Wind and Fire’s ‘September’
Do you remember? In the case of Earth, Wind & Fire’s “September,” it seems the answer is a resounding “yes.” The funk classic saw a massive spike in sales and streams over the weekend — enough for it to land at Number 73 on Wednesday’s daily Rolling Stone Top 100 Songs chart, which offers a preview of the chart that will be finalized next Monday.
The song, which was originally released in 1978, has seen an increase in both sales and streams throughout the month of September. But things got particularly heated on the 21st, the fateful night referenced by Maurice White in the song’s opening line. Early reports from Alpha Data, which supplies data for the RS Charts, indicate that fans cued up “September” to the tune of 2.5 million streams on Saturday alone, a 225 percent increase from the day prior. That figure includes over 885,000 on-demand audio streams. (Finalized numbers will be released on Monday’s charts.)

The Black Madonna and Las Vegas’ Intersect Festival
The Black Madonna has pulled out of her performance at Las Vegas’ Intersect Festival after the DJ learned of the music and tech fest’s connection to Amazon Web Services.
On Thursday, a “furious” Black Madonna turned to social media to tell fans she was unaware of Amazon’s sponsorship of Intersect when she signed on for the December 6th and 7th festival; “What the fuck is this Amazon shit? I absolutely didn’t agree to this. Oh hell no,” the DJ wrote.
Two days later, the Black Madonna formally announced her exit from Intersect in a long statement where she criticized Amazon’s business practices and associations.
“I will not be performing at Intersect Festival due to their relationship with Amazon Web Services who have business ties with ICE and Homeland Security,” the Black Madonna wrote.

Bon Jovi Unveil New Single ‘Unbroken’
Attachment 37465
Bon Jovi have unveiled new song “Unbroken,” which the band wrote for Josh Aronson’s documentary, To Be of Service. The film follows war veterans suffering from Post Traumatic Stress Disorder and the positive impact of being paired with service dogs. The film will screen in several theaters around the U.S. in November.
The song details experiences and emotions from a young soldier’s perspective. “God of mercy/God of light/Save your children from this life,” Jon Bon Jovi sings. “Hear these words, this humble plea/For I have seen the suffering/And with this prayer I’m hoping/That we can be unbroken.”
