Celebration of the 1st Birthday of 'Searching for Jimmy Page'

HIGHLIGHTS:

In this episode of Rock is Lit, some special guests and I celebrate the first book birthday of my rock novel, ‘Searching for Jimmy Page’. First, my close friends and colleagues Margaret Bauer, Randall Martoccia, and Liza Wieland interview me about my novel. Later, former President of Atlantic Records, manager of Nirvana, PR man for Led Zeppelin then Vice President of Swan Song records, Danny Goldberg, joins the podcast to talk about his experiences working with Led Zeppelin in the 1970s.

Check out the Rock is Lit Vault for bonus material from this episode, including my responses to readers’ questions about ‘Searching for Jimmy Page’ that folks were kind enough to message me, AND an outtake from my interview with Danny Goldberg concerning his thoughts about such Led Zeppelin nonfiction books as the notorious ‘Hammer of the Gods’ by Stephen Davis, plus a few anecdotes involving a young Cameron Crowe.
