A look today of Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young (CSNY), when they played at Milwaukee County Stadium in 1974.
The house was packed for a great show on a beautiful summer day.
They shared the show with Jesse Colin Young and his Youngbloods and the Beach Boys.
Enjoy a look at CSNY when they were at their best.
Have a great week and enjoy the fall colors!
Thanks,

Today's blog takes us back into the dark basement nightclub called Humpin Hanna's in Milwaukee, Wisconsin in 1973.
Hanna's, as we called it, had some really big names playing in it before they became famous. It was too small of a venue for larger acts because it's capacity was only about 150 people.
Tim Buckley was one of those performers who played there and then became famous. I was lucky enough to photograph him in 1973.
Enjoy some old, grainy, black and white images of Tim.
Have a great week and join us on Facebook at Rich Zimmermann Photography if you haven't yet.
Thanks,

Alvis Edgar Owens Jr., was an amazing man. We all know him as Buck Owens.
From the television show Hee Haw, to his own television show with his Buckaroos, the Bakersfield sound became popular.
His best friend and guitar player ,Don Rich, was a big part of the Buckaroos. Don passed away in 1974 in a motorcycle accident and that almost ruined Buck's career.
Thankfully, with the pedal steel player seen here and his son Buddy Alan, they got him playing and singing again. He started a new adventure called the Crystal Palace, in Bakersfield, California.
The Crystal Palace in Bakersfield, California is a restaurant, museum and concert hall that is all about Buck.
Enjoy some old photos of Buck and The Buckaroos, from Summerfest in 1973.
