Hi June!
I work with Neil Young and we are currently working on the Neil Young Archive Volume 2 Box Set. It goes from roughly late 1972 through 1982. In December of 1975 and January 1976 Neil did a bar tour in Northern California unannounced with Crazy Horse and he played at the Frank Torres Beach Hotel but we don’t have the exact date nor can I find any reviews or references to it anywhere. In all of your research, have you ever come across anyone ever mentioning this? In reading through your site, there was a gentleman, Bruce Pine and he seemed to be around about that time. Would he possibly remember anything or would you have contact info on that.
Also I was wondering if you know of anyone who would have photos from the 70’s of the hotel. I do have photos from much earlier time periods, but it would be nice to see it in the 70’s athough maybe it hasn’t changed that much.
Fun site to read through. Any suggestions or help you could give me would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you for your time.
All My Best!
