About Harvey's guest:

Today’s guest, Lance Bernard Bryant, is a current member of one of the greatest, most popular and beloved legendary music groups in history: The Platters. 

Founded in 1952 by bass singer Herb Reed, The Platters brought us 40 hit singles, including the classic songs, “Only You”, “The Great Pretender”, “My Prayer”, “Twilight Time”, “Smoke Gets In Your Eyes”, “Harbor Lights”, “Enchanted”, “Winner Take All”, “The Magic Touch”, and many more. The Platters was the first Black group to reach international superstardom, with over 80 million records sold worldwide.  

They’ve been inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, the Vocal Group Hall of Fame and the Grammy Hall of Fame. And their classic hit songs “Only You” and “The Great Pretender” have been included in the Grammy Museum list of the greatest songs of the 20th century. They were the only act to have 3 songs included on the “American Graffiti” soundtrack, which is widely credited with igniting an oldies revival throughout the world in the mid-1970s. 

And the global love affair with the music of The Platters just keeps growing. In fact, their music is so phenomenally popular, that on Spotify ALONE, their songs are streamed more than 3 million times every month. And despite a tumultuous history spanning decades of racism, unscrupulous identity theft and legal battles, and despite the passing of all the original members, the Platters as a group has endured and evolved and thrived over 7 decades, thanks to Herb Reed’s successor, Fred Balboni Jr., who has worked tirelessly to preserve and honour the legacy of this monumentally important group, which continues to bring their magnificent timeless music to concert halls throughout the world.

Harvey Brownstone conducts an in-depth Interview with Elizabeth Thomson, Editor, “Bob Dylan: No Direction Home”

About Harvey's guest:

Today’s show is all about an artist who is widely considered to be America’s greatest musical poet laureate and visionary, Bob Dylan. 

He is an artist of transcendent historical importance, both as a cultural hero and an anti-hero. His songs have become part of our cultural DNA. In 1986, a groundbreaking book entitled “Bob Dylan: No Direction Home” was written by the renowned New York Times music critic, Robert Shelton, whose very first article about Bob Dylan brought him national attention and launched him as a celebrity. The book is uniquely insightful, because it’s much more than a biography. It’s an eyewitness account, because Mr. Shelton was a close friend of Bob Dylan’s, and he was there for all of the pivotal events in Dylan’s career in the first half of his life.  This book comes as close as any book can, to finding the essence of the real Bob Dylan, and pierces through all the myths about this elusive artist. Mr. Shelton not only conducted an extensive and profound interview with Bob Dylan - he is the ONLY person EVER to have interviewed Dylan’s parents. Sadly, Mr. Shelton passed away in 1995, but in 2011, a much more complete version of the book was published, which included many parts that were left out of the original edition. 

And now, a brand new edition is being released, thanks to our guest. She is a renowned journalist, broadcaster and author whose work has been featured in the most prestigious publications around the world.  She’s a contributing editor to theartsdesk.com, she’s a contributor to The New Grove Dictionary of Music & Musicians, she was a founding trustee of the Desmond Elliott Prize for first novels, she served as Editor of the business weekly, “Publishing News”, she was the founding Editor of “Book Brunch”, the online bulletin and website for the publishing industry, she has lectured at numerous universities, and as a broadcaster, she has interviewed everyone from Presidents Jimmy Carter and Bill Clinton, to Leonard Cohen, Judy Collins, Janis Ian, André Previn, Vanessa Redgrave and Joan Baez. 

In fact, several years ago she wrote a highly compelling biography of Joan Baez entitled, “Joan Baez: The Last Leaf”. In 2018 she founded The Village Trip, a celebration of arts and activism in Greenwich Village and the East Village in Downtown Manhattan, and she currently serves as Joint Artistic Director of that event.  But today, she’s hear to talk about the brand new edition of “Bob Dylan: No Direction Home”.
