Story
In 1972, Elliot Mintz installed a red light in his bedroom in Laurel Canyon. When it started flashing, it meant that either John Lennon or Yoko Ono—or sometimes both—were calling him. Which they did almost every day for nearly ten years, engaging Mintz in hours-long late-night phone conversations that all but consumed him for the better part of a decade. In We All Shine On, Mintz—a former radio and television host in Los Angeles—recounts the story of how their unlikely friendship began and where it led him over the years.

The author had in-depth knowledge of his subjects. His personal friendships with John and Yoko provided interesting and unknown information about the couple and their relationship.

Story
Paul McCartney and John Lennon described him as the Beatles' "favorite group," he won Grammy awards, wrote and recorded hit songs, and yet no figure in popular music is as much of a paradox, or as underrated, as Harry Nilsson. In this first ever full-length biography, Alyn Shipton traces Nilsson's life from his Brooklyn childhood to his Los Angeles adolescence and his gradual emergence as a uniquely talented singer-songwriter.

Too much technical jargon about the process Nilsson used to record his music.

I was interested in Mr. Nillson’s life and how he lived it. There was way too much intricate technical information about recording that I didn’t even understand. I was very disappointed in the book.

Loved it.

It was written in the spirit of Rebecca by Daphne demure. Maybe a little too much descriptive verbiage but still good listening. Couldn’t wait to see what happened.
