Confessions of a Rock 'n' Roll Name-Dropper: My Life Leading Up to John Lennon's Last Interview

Confessions of a Rock 'n' Roll Name-Dropper: My Life Leading Up to John Lennon's Last Interview  is  the story of my rock radio-related early life and career wrapped around the time I spent with John Lennon and Yoko Ono on December 8th. 1980 following the release of Double Fantasy!  Our interview ended mere hours before John was shot and killed, and I got bugged by the creep who ended up assassinating John - whose name I NEVER mention or print since he doesn't deserve any publicity ! What John and I both had in common was being improperly raised by our families…mine was dysfunctional, which eventually led to my love of rock radio and my career !                                                   I definitely wrote my book to attract tons of readers and create awareness of my rock radio related existence, which has always been important to me since as a toddler, I began living with a transistor radio plugged in my ears nearly all day and night to stay away from my dysfunctional family!  I tell my readers all about being a teenage runaway thanks to my violent and unfortunate family upbringing, as well as how Sex and Drugs and Rock and Roll sent me up the road not only to John Lennon’s last day on the planet, but also to tons of other incredible interviews I conducted - everyone from Paul and Linda McCartney and their latest line-up of Wings in London (June 1979) to George Harrison (December ’78), George Martin (January 1980, plus plenty of other incredible rock stars including Little Richard Penniman, The Ramones, Talking Heads, Mick Jagger, David Bowie, etc - and they're nearly all featured, described and quoted in my book!
