Hello. I hope everyone is doing well.
Recently, I have been speaking with a man (Neil), who along with a couple of partners, filmed the Earth Jam ‘95 music festival at Stone Mountain Park in Atlanta. Neil and his partners — one of which uploaded his B-roll footage of Dream Brother to his YouTube channel in 2017 — captured roughly 2-3 songs per artist (see who performed below) — including some brief interviews with the various acts — with Hi8 cameras and 16mm film.
Earth Jam ‘95 lineup:
Indigo Girls
Grant Lee Buffalo
Luscious Jackson
G. Love and Special Sauce
Jeff Buckley
Mike Watt (w/ Eddie Vedder, Dave Grohl, and Pat Smear)
Soul Coughing
Band de Soleil
I have persuaded Neil to digitize this footage, however, this will be a costly endeavour, therefore we are looking at a couple of possibilities to raise the necessary funds to facilitate the process.
Neil emailed me recently with the following message:
“Below is a general fundraiser we are doing by pre-selling the services that we do at a discount price in order to raise some immediate money.
If some of his (Jeff Buckley) fans wanted to purchase railroad ties it would certainly speed up the process of the transfer (referring to the digitization of the footage). They could also be traded in for mixing or mastering or video editing services that we do here (see link below for clarification).”

If anyone is interested in helping us get this footage digitized and finally brought to light after three decades of hiddenness, perhaps you might want to support this cause and Neil’s company by purchasing a railroad tie. Alternatively, as mentioned above, you could avail yourself of the various services that Neil offers, which can be viewed through the website above.
Neil said, ”Put Buckley Video in the notes section. I'll put 1/2 the RailrRoad Tie Towards Digitization immediately. They can monitor progress on social.”
Your support would be sincerely appreciated.
In the event that this idea is unsuccessful, I have suggested to Neil that a focused fundraising campaign (perhaps a GoFundMe) would probably yield better results and might raise the money with ease. I’m trying to help Neil out, though, which would be a win-win for all us.
Thanks for your time. Feel free to share your thoughts in the comments.

On November 16, 1994, Jeff Buckley was interviewed in Vancouver, Canada, by journalist, Peter Grainger. Excerpts of this aired that night on the TV program, CBC News Final. Does anyone have a VHS copy of this footage?

It's that time of year, again, where we celebrate Jeff's birthday. What better occasion than now to share this ultra rare artifact? Most of you don't know that during the mid '90s, Jeff was the subject of a cutting edge fiber optics experiment that produced the first known photograph of a closed armpit. I feel privileged to share this unique picture with you all. This photo reveals a side of Jeff that was too often underlooked. Happy Birfday, Jiff.

Hello. My name is Steven. I run the most comprehensive YouTube channel dedicated to Jeff Buckley footage. Over the course of many years, I’ve done undercover detective work, accumulating a large collection of rare video material. I’m constantly on the lookout for new content to add to my library, as I have felt a calling to curate and preserve as much footage pertaining to Jeff — whether that be live performances, interviews, and other miscellaneous things — for posterity.
My goal is to compile the most complete archive of Jeff Buckley footage as possible in order to expand his legacy and help others to better understand and appreciate his unparalleled musical talents and other facets of his life. I’m aware of a plethora of footage that exists and I’m doing my best to obtain copies before it’s too late and much of it inevitably gets lost to time, as it fades further into oblivion, and private owners pass on and their footage is possibly discarded by their respective inheritors.
