Jeff wrote us about discovering his lost negatives back in 2009:

I have over 90 shots in b&w from the taping.

I was 19 years old when I was invited to the taping. I can't remember who invited me, but I went with my trusty Nikon F with a 105mm portrait lens. I was so close, I couldn't even get all four band members in the same shot, but got a few with three.

I shot the black and whites and also a bunch of Ektachrome slides (which I subsequently lost in the many moves from rental properties over the years) while sitting in the front row of the audience. I was the guy in the long sleeve yellow shirt, second from the left in the opening scene.

You can see Jeff at the taping in the video below of Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young performing "Down by the River".



A photo of Neil Young by Jeff was used on the cover of the book Everything Left to Know About the Iconic and Mercurial Rocker by Glen Boyd (Review and details).
