Here is a video I acquired from a friend that went to Jeff's Top Gun School in 1978.

Be sure and read about it in the YouTube Description.

Enjoy,
Bill

Thanks for posting that, Bill! Great footage of a master at work. Always great to see and hear Jeff. He had a beautiful touch on the instrument. I learned so much from my days at Jeffran College and privately on the hill with him.

Brilliant, puts my attempt to shame, I thought this was a really hard piece. He makes it look like child's play. Jeff was an amazing player and I think the best steel guitar tutor.

Jeff was great, as a teacher or player. Never heard that song played that slow. Sometimes it's harder doing a song slow than it is faster.
