Madeline Bocaro on Yoko Ono

If you were to ask a random selection of people, "What's the first thing that springs to mind when you think of Yoko Ono?" 'She was married to John Lennon' would probably be a common reply. If you then asked them what they know about her music, you'd either get blank looks or references to her screaming into a microphone like a banshee. In the new Misadventures in Music podcast Ian Prowse and Mick Ord hear from Yoko biographer Madeline Boccaro who's been following her career as closely as anyone on the planet since the sixties.Her critically-acclaimed book "in your mind - the infinite universe of yoko ono" aims to dispel a number of myths about the 91 year old artist, in particular that "she's just a screamer". Ian and Mick take a deep dive into Ono's music with Madeline in this Misadventures in Music podcast and emerge inspired and energised by this criminally misunderstood artist and ,yes, musician whose life story before and after John Lennon is simply jaw-dropping (in a good way). We trust you will be energised too.And maybe surprised. Enjoy.
