Laurie Kaye has had a long career in radio, beginning with working at radio station KRFC-AM, San Francisco, going from intern to on-air reporter and anchor, and at the RKO Radio Networks as a newscaster, and writer and co-producer for numerous specials, including a 14-hour radio special “The Beatles From Liverpool To Legend” which aired on all the RKO radio stations, and as a writer for a syndicated Top 40 countdown show hosted by Dick Clark. She was part of the crew that conducted the last interview with John Lennon and Yoko Ono on Dec. 8, 1980 at the Dakota, just hours before he was murdered. Laurie has also interviewed George Harrison, Paul McCartney, George Martin, Mick Jagger, David Bowie. She went on to work in television and film as a writer, producer and casting director, where she still works today. Her forthcoming book “Confessions of a Rock 'n' Roll Name-Dropper: My Life Leading Up to John Lennon's Last Interview” is her memoir telling her life story, filled with many incredible musicians she’s interviewed, and how important the interview with John and Yoko was, as well as the most tragic day of her life. Here Laurie talks about her early beginnings in radio, and her interviews with John and Yoko, George Harrison, Paul McCartney and George Martin. This was a very powerful and emotional interview, and I’m very grateful that Laurie got to share her memories with us.

Amazing interview with Laurie, Ken! I hope one day we are able to hear the "missing" conversation Laurie had with John and Yoko that afternoon.

On youtube you can watch The Beatles play to silent audiences who only applauded and cheered at the end for their great live performances, even with the primitive limited sound systems they had at the time,feedback monitors hadn't even been invented yet,When they played in Sweden in 1963,Paris in 1964,Italy in 1965 and in Japan in 1966. And at their last concert on August 29th at Candlestick park recorded on just a little early mid 1960's tape cassette recorder ludicrously at Paul's suggestion which is on several youtube channels, they played great and rocking too. I also met two people and know a third one who saw The Beatles in concert, one woman and one man who were my high school teachers one who saw them in 1966,and one who saw them in 1965 and the other is my second cousin who saw them at the Baltimore Coliseum when she was 16 in 1964, a year before I was even born and she became a psychologist. They all told me that they were close enough to them to see and hear the The Beatles and that they were great. I'm sure that when teenage girls listened to The Beatles records and songs on the radio most of them weren't screaming,they knew what their music sounded like and they loved it.

In a very good 1990 MTV Paul McCartney Rocumentary that is on youtube the narrator rightly says McCartney has been many things over the last three decades, a hardcore rock and roller, a pure pop star, a trailblazing bassist, and the cutest guy in the worlds most popular band, but above all else from the beginning he's been a world class song writer. The Beatles producer George Martin is also interviewed and he said that soon after he started to work with them in the recording studio, which was late 1962, early 1963,he said they emerged as pretty brilliant and started to really think about song writing in a very serious way and they showed a film segment of The Beatles in the recording studio which looked like early 1964 during the great Hard Day's Night sessions. And Paul wrote Love Me Do at only age 16 which is a good song but Paul wrote the even much better beautiful acoustic guitar song I'll Follow The Sun which they recorded for their very good very underrated late 1964 album ,Beatles For Sale.

Thanks for a very interesting video, Ken & Laurie. The album had initially been a disappointment for me in being 1/2 John and that night (!) after 3 weeks of having the album, I was saying "I really like this album and can't wait to see them on tour in 1981" I still do not understand why I was listening to "I'm Losing You" at the time he was killed. Why at 10:55 pm was I listening to that song? That still haunts me.

This is the first I've heard that John had planned to be in Hawaii at this time. Ironic and eerie as that's where MDC lived...

@CarolGhes Год назад

Yes, I think if John and Yoko hadn't been in New York, MDC would have done the same thing in Hawaii.

@D97Music Год назад

@@CarolGhes it's possible, though they probably would've been harder to track down there.

@lewis4122 Год назад

I am not persuaded by some of the narrative. The lost weekend was actually 18 months and John was extremely creative in this period. He also divided his time between LA and New York. I don't buy that it was such a miserable period. Also I don't buy into the narrative that he hung his guitar up and baked bread. Double Fantasy wasn't a great album in my view. There were some good tracks, but there were also fillers. I also don't think the marrying of John and Yoko's music worked. I prefer their solo works. I feel that the only creative partnership that worked 100% was between John and Paul.

@kenmichaelsradio748 Год назад

Well, I respect your opinion but certainly do not agree with some of it. I happen to disagree with John in that I love his albums Mind Games and Walls And Bridges, and feel they are very strong albums. I usually prefer listening to those over POB and Imagine. I already said in this interview that the idea that John didn't take his guitar off the wall for the last 5 years is completely false, but maybe in his mind he didn't do that much with the guitar and his songwriting, so he looked at it that way. I love the work that all 4 Beatles did together, but I also enjoy their solo-work just as much, perhaps even more so. Yoko was a tremendous influence on John, and she expanded his mind creatively. And I love Double Fantasy and feel it worked as an album and a collaboration between two people.

@lewis4122 Год назад

@@kenmichaelsradio748 I appreciate we all have different perspectives. But I'm not convinced John and Yoko worked as a musical partnership.

@panchovilla7235 13 дней назад

Not a amazing interview, because that guy with the long hair asked the same old standard questions. 🤔

@bbsoni4814 Год назад

laurie's great! very sincere....that whole yoko astrology was rubbish....john had to deal with all these ballshit....seems like John had a premonition of his own death as we can hear on the interviews he gave on that day....he was too excited, happy on that day.....so sad....
