Listen Later

In her years of radio work, Laurie Kaye has talked to such rock luminaries as Paul McCartney (with wife Linda), George Harrison, Beatles producer George Martin, Little Richard, Mick Jagger, Bob Weir, The Ramones, Talking Heads and more. But it was her interview with John Lennon and Yoko Ono on Dec. 8, 1980, the night he was murdered, that is the focus of her book "Confessions of a Rock 'n' Roll Name Dropper: My Life Leading Up to John Lennon's Last Interview." She talks about the Lennon interview, her Beatles interviews (with excerpts from each of her Beatles interviews featured in this show) and more in this episode. We hope you enjoy the show!
