Wow- what you have so far is really impressive. I've been wondering about the timing of some of the early things, so this is great. There's a pic of Lindsey with Stevie in the Out of the Cradle booklet- they're with a couple of guys I don't recognize as Fritz, but maybe I'm wrong. I also noticed the same pic used on Lindsey's Back to the Music. I've been wondering at which event it was taken- they really look exceptionally young.

There's an anecdote of Steve Martin sharing the bill with BN in this Pitchfork article. The year he remembers it happening is obviously off.
Quote:
Nineteen seventy-five would be very much the beginning of the Celtic rush for me. It wasn’t as easy to listen to music if you were on the road, which is where I was—there was no way to listen to it except the radio. We had cassette players, so I could make mix tapes [laughs], but it was a very elaborate process to make a cassette back then. I’d mix it up a lot between classical guitar, bluegrass, and Celtic.

That year, Buckingham Nicks and I both found ourselves at this tiny club in Greenwich Village, where everything was happening. I didn’t know who they were, they didn’t know who I was. I think they were opening for me. The first night there was nobody there. I was making $300 a week, which seemed like a fortune, and I said to the owner, “Look, I don’t expect to get paid if no one comes in.” And he said, “No, no, it’s going good.” Then nobody came again on the second night, and I said, “Look, let’s stop.” And he said, “OK.” And I left. You can’t play to nobody, although I’ve done it before.
