Description

The Rolling Stone Interviews Vol. 2 .Edited and with an Introduction by Ben Fong-Torres. 'As in the first volume, this collection of interviews from Rolling Stone aims at filling those spaces between the musical notes, at etching in the background behind the music the artist put forth. There are fifteen interviews with people who dreamt 9n the Fifties, went to work in the Sixties and helped pave the way into the Seventies. They tell of the songs and how they came to be written, rewritten, recorded and played; the groups and how they gathered and grew; the musicians, their influences, life histories and observations. Volume II begins with a period piece, from the earliest Rolling Stone days, with Dylan. It follows through in talks with performers like Peter Townsend, Kink Ray Davies, B. B. King and Johnny Otis; and it listens as they glory in the past (when rock was new and had not yet become a nation's soundtrack) and look ahead, warily and hopefully, to their roles in the shaping of the music.' Other interviews with: Van Morrison. Roger McGuinn. Leon Russell. Rod Stewart. Stephen Stills. Country Joe McDonald and the Psychedelic Fish. Keith Richard. Joe Smith. Marvin Gaye and Paul Simon. The book has light general wear but remains tight and bright.
