Bill Barnfield playing Taps?

Anybody have a copy of the urban renewal-era picture of Bill Barnfield standing atop a heap of dirt in Bristol's devastated downtown and playing "Taps" for the city? I'd like to see that -- and to hear the story from anyone who remembers it.
Sorry in advance if I have some of the details wrong here.

Oh you just WISH you could play anything as well as Frank. He's got integrity AND rhythm. He always hits the high notes. You seem to be stuck rather low on the scale.
