In which Neil Young inducts fellow 24B hero Tom Waits into Cleveland’s esteemed Rock Hall of Fame before turning the microphone over to the great troubadour himself for an acceptance speech that includes memories of Lightnin’ Hopkins, a touching dedication to his family, and two musical performances accompanied by his longtime collaborator/one of the best guitarists alive, Marc Ribot (the Young-featuring “Get Behind the Mule” rendition has yet to surface). An inspiring moment for Waits and excellent collection of clips to boot, though it’s only made me more hungry for that new LP he has in the works.
