Young has released a number of live versions of the song himself, and it has also been covered by other artists, including Dave Edmunds, The New Seekers, The Flying Burrito Brothers and Elvis Costello.
[7] Allmusic critic Stephen Thomas Erlewine described this version as a "stomping hoedown.
"[7] Music lecturer Ken Bielen similarly called this version a "hoedown sing-a-long performance that elicits a lot of hand-clapping on the beat.
[10][11] Billboard said that "the Neil Young rhythm material is strong for the New Seekers loaded with Top 40 and MOR potential.
The Flying Burrito Brothers covered the song on their 1997 album California Jukebox.
[15] As it turned out, Burrito Brothers' fiddler Gib Guilbeau had played the fiddle on the original Crazy Horse version and as a result he and Beland had long wanted to record the song.
[15] Guilbeau used the same fiddle on the Flying Burrito Brothers record as he did on the Crazy Horse version more than 25 years earlier.
