SN8 | Ep350 - Ivor Davis | Legendary Journalist & Bestselling Author

“He was born in fury and he lived in lightning. Tom came headlong into life. He was a giant in joy and enthusiasms. He didn't discover the world and its people, he created them.” - John Steinbeck"Curiouser and curiouser!" Cried Alice Our Very Special Guest is Journalist & Bestselling Author Ivor Davis - With a Original Music Soundtrack of Beatles covers by Kurt Cobain, Amy Winehouse, Emmylou Harris, Motley Crue, Fiona Apple & Ray CharlesJournalists report on the story, they are hardly ever the story. Today will be an exception to that rule. Author/journalist and investigative reporter IVOR DAVIS IS THE STORY. He is a journalist, and in my opinion, quite a famous journalist. He has covered pop culture and iconic figures throughout his 60 + years in journalism as a writer for such massive and iconic papers such as the Express and the Times of London. His incredible body of work encompasses nearly every corner of pop culture - writing and interviewing everyone from the Beatles to Charles Manson, from Tom Cruise, Cary Grant, Elizabeth Taylor, Richard Burton, Muhammad Ali, Mariel Hemingway and Robin Williams just to name a FEW!He was the only British daily newspaper correspondent to cover The Beatles’ first American tour from start to finish, given unparalleled access to John, Paul, George and Ringo on the road, in their hotel and during long nights of card and Monopoly games as they talked frankly about their bizarre new life. "The Beatles and Me On Tour," is a fascinating travel back in time where for the first time he chronicles, frankly and humorously, 34 days with the world’s most famous band on the road—at a critical moment in the history of rock. Albert Einstein explained his genius when he famously said, "I have no special talents. I am only passionately curious.”I have a feeling that Ivor Davis may relate.https://www.ivordavisbooks.com
