KMOX interview with Nancy Lee Andrews
KMOX 1120 a.m. in St. Louis, Missouri has posted its March 4 interview with Nancy Lee Andrews, who was the guest of The Carney Show. Andrews was promoting her new book, A Dose of Rock 'n' Roll. Go to http://kmox.com/The-Carney-Show/1670961 to listen to the interview.
A Dose of Rock 'n' Roll is a photographic essay about her life with Ringo Starr. She met Ringo through Lennon who introduced them in May of 1974. The photographs, taken over a decade starting in 1970, are a personal journey through her life at the peak of pop culture history.
The book is rich in photos of tender moments with Ringo, his loving relationship with his children, his playfulness and their travels around the world. Her years with the famous Beatle drummer brought Andrews and her highly original and perceptive camerawork into the world of some of the greatest rock and roll and pop icons of the time, along with the women who loved them. Among many others appearing in the images and text of the book, in addition to Ringo and the late, great John Lennon and George Harrison, are Keith Moon, Bob Dylan, The Band, Donovan, Pattie Boyd and Eric Clapton, to name a few.
