Send us Fan MailPeter Asher: Everywhere Man is screening at the Long Island Music & Entertainment Hall of Fame Music Documentary Film Festival on Sunday, September 27th at 2:45 pm.Peter Asher’s extraordinary life has intersected with some of the greatest artists and musical moments of the last six decades. A child actor who became one half of the British Invasion duo Peter & Gordon—whose worldwide No. 1 hit “A World Without Love” was written by Paul McCartney—Asher went on to become head of A&R at the Beatles’ Apple Records, where he signed and produced a young James Taylor. He then moved to America and became Taylor’s manager and producer, helping establish him as one of the defining singer-songwriters of his generation. Asher also guided and produced the remarkable career of Linda Ronstadt, working on landmark albums including Heart Like a Wheel, Simple Dreams and What’s New. A multiple Grammy Award winner and two-time Producer of the Year, Asher has worked with an extraordinary roster of artists while remaining a vital creative force to this day. Zelig-like in his ability to appear at pivotal moments in music history, Asher’s story connects the Beatles and Apple Records to the rise of the California singer-songwriter, the careers of Taylor and Ronstadt, and generations of artists who followed. Featuring intimate interviews with James Taylor, Linda Ronstadt, Carole King, Kate Taylor, Lyle Lovett, Natalie Merchant, Marianne Faithfull, Paul Jones, Danny Kortchmar, Waddy Wachtel, Lee Sklar, John Boylan, Paul Shaffer, and Paul McCartney [in voiceover], as well as cultural icons Steve Martin, Eric Idle, Twiggy, and Pattie Boyd. The soundtrack, woven from the timeless music of the artists whose lives intersected with Asher’s, creates a score as unforgettable as the story itself. Directors: Daniel Geller and Dayna Goldfine (Hallelujah: Leonard Cohen, a Journey, a Song; Ballets Russes). Buy tickets to visit LIMEHOF at:https://www.limusichalloffame.org/tickets-and-gift-cards/The Long Island Music and Entertainment Hall of Fame is located at:97 Main StreetStony Brook, NY 11790Email: [email protected]: 631-689-5888
