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).

CONTEST: Uncut Magazine: Neil Young & The Legend of Crazy Horse - May 2019

"I'm tapped into the source!"
Neil Young & The Legend of Crazy Horse
Uncut Magazine Cover - May 2019
CONTEST: Win A Copy

The upcoming May 2019 issue of Uncut Magazine features "Neil Young & The Legend of Crazy Horse".

The issue celebrates 50 years of Crazy Horse in all of their magnificent ragged glory and -- thanks to the good folks @ UNCUT -- Thrasher's Wheat will be having a contest to give away a few copies. (See below for details.)

From UNCUT Magazine Editor, Michael Bonner:

Neil Young is on the cover, and inside we celebrate 50 years of Crazy Horse, a union that has endured, often shakily, from Everybody Knows This Is Nowhere up to the present day. Young, Billy Talbot, Poncho Sampedro, Nils Lofgren and others recall high times and tall tales with the Horse (with an unexpected cameo from Bob Dylan…).

The article by a collaborative team of Rusties including Tom on Sugar Mountain, Tyler, Mark Spook The Horse -- to name just a few -- honors the Crazy Horse legacy. Crazy Horse and Neil Young memories go back to Danny Whitten with The Rockets onto Nils Lofgren and then back to Nils here in 2019. Makes for a nice full circle around the ranch and back to the barn.

Even as a long time hard core fan, many of us will still learn a trick to 2 with a semi-rare interview with Volume Dealer Producer Nico Bolas, who discusses the challenges and acheivements with recording The Horse and The Spook.

Ragged Glory
Uncut Magazine: Neil Young & The Legend of Crazy Horse - May 2019

We encourage all Crazy Horse fans to express their support for the campaign by visiting Induct Neil Young & Crazy Horse into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame | Facebook. Like it. Share it. Post a comment, photo or video. Have some fun and get your Horse on.

From the About Section: Neil Young has termed his association with Crazy Horse “the essence of my musical life. This is the core, the smoldering thing I come back to over and over again....If I had never done anything else, the Crazy Horse stuff would just stand on its own.”
