This kiss-and-tell memoir invites us to witness that journey first-hand, and to spend candid time with the likes of John and Yoko, Paul and Linda, Mick,…
As the founder of Rolling Stone magazine, Jann recounts decades of being at the forefront of musical, film, and political history.

From David's list on emotionally available male celebrities.
