It's HARVEST MOON by Neil Young!

Many of you have asked again about my often used theme song "Harvest Moon". It is found on the CD by the same title by Neil Young.

The album was released in 1992 and has also been released on his BEST OF ALBUM. (Don't mistake his other album "Harvest" with "Harvest Moon".)
