I know he played dobro on "Mother Earth Presents: Tracy Nelson Country" from around 1969, produced by Pete Drake and Scotty Moore (Pete plays steel of course). I think he also played on a few songs on the Mother Earth album that came out before that ("Make a Joyful Noise"). All those songs are (were?) available on one CD but at the moment I can't remember what the CD is called...

The Tracy Nelson album is one of my all time favorites...

He does some of his signature-style backup work on the self-titled Pegi Young (Neil's wife) CD, but he's credited as playing the "autoharp"!
