Radiohead cover Neil Young

Watch Thom Yorke and co covering 'After The Gold Rush' track

Radiohead covered Neil Young at their Hollywood Bowl gig earlier this week.

Thom Yorke and Johnny Greenwood performed their version of the opening track, 'Tell Me Why', from Young's 1970 album 'After The Gold Rush', on Monday (August 25).

The duo had previously tried to play the song at the Washington(August 20) leg of their American tour the week previous, but Yorke apparently forgot the words.

Watch the full version from their Hollywood Bowl show below.
