JOHN LENNON/PLASTIC ONO BAND

JOHN LENNON/PLASTIC ONO BAND with special guest Philip Norman. John Lennon’s stunning debut album is quite rightly regarded as his best. Bleak, exhilarating and soulful, ‘John Lennon/Plastic Ono Band’ is a true classic album. Legendary author & journalist, Philip Norman wrote 'Shout! The True Story Of The Beatles,' the multi million seller biography that was published in 1981. 'John Lennon: The Life' was published in 2008. In a classic conversation with Jason Barnard, PHILIP NORMAN reels off stories about the Fabs, Yoko, Richard Burton & Elizabeth Taylor, Margo Fontaine and David Bailey just to name a few. It’s a funny, sad, poignant and riveting interview that had the sold-audience captivated throughout. If you would like to learn more about Philip’s extraordinary life we highly recommend his memoir, ‘We Danced On Our Desks.’ Philip’s new blog, ‘Read Me Do’ can be found at:https://open.substack.com/pub/philipnorman/p/the-man-who-made-the-beatles?r=2uoo5g&utm_campaign=post&utm_medium=email JASON BARNARD was in the interviewer's chair.
