Sarah Slean - I Am A Child (audio)

The Neil Young Tribute Show that took place last week at Massey Hall has already been put online on CBC. Sarah played Neil's song, I am a Child. You can listen to the track over here:

The show will also air on CBC radio on the following dates according to their twitter page:

"Neil Young Massey Hall tribute concert will air on Canada Live in 2 parts on Mondays: June 26 + July 6"

Please note, I haven't been able to find a site page yet on the CBC that offers that link. I just located it running a search on the CBC site. Changing the 19 to a different number changes the track and the word 'all' plays the entire concert.

Sarah's name has yet to be confirmed on her site or the event page at the time of publishing but her name has been shown in other press releases.

The article below is from yesterday's Toronto Star:

The event, which will recreate Young's legendary 1971 Toronto concert, will feature 18 songs and up to 18 bands, with a star-studded lineup including Holly Cole, Steven Page, the Cowboy Junkies, Jason Collett from Broken Social Scene and Sarah Slean. The list of performers also includes the Bill Frisell Trio, Issa (formerly Jane Siberry), Stevie Jackson, Colin Linden, Harry Manx, Danny Michel, Carole Pope and Roxanne Potvin.

Organizers say that Neil Young has been invited to the concert, and are hopeful he'll come.

Playing Massey Hall is somethhing Sarah admited to looking forward to in her Q&A session last fall. (pt.2 q.2)
