Watch Neil Young & Crazy Horse's 40-minute film, 'A Day At The Gallery'

by Tyler Munro

Neil Young & Crazy Horse have been promoting their upcoming album with a slew of stock-footage accompanied music videos, but today they went and outdid themselves with Americana: A Day At the Gallery, a 40-minute film directed by Young under his Bernard Shakey pseudonym.

In the film, which is shot partly in the style of old silent shorts, Young takes up the role of a young author who goes to an art gallery to find paintings. When he does, the viewer is treated to the stock music clips we’ve already seen, starting with “Oh Susannah.”

It’s a remarkably clever way to tease the upcoming album, so you should head to Neil Young’s website now to watch it. Americana is out on June 5th.
