It's Only Rock 'N Roll: Inside Atlantic Records in the '70s by former label President Jerry Greenberg with Chris Epting
That's the title of a new book I'm currently in the middle of writing.
So I learned something today, something that has always puzzled me.
If you're familiar with the Dick Cavett interview backstage in 72, which I'm sure many of you are, you know how he references walking on the beach with Jagger a few days earlier?
So here's what I think happened. According to Jerry, Jagger let it be known that right after the Pittsburgh show, he wanted a day of rest and relaxation out on the Hamptons at Ahmet Ertegun's place. So... Jerry is tasked with flying the Atlantic private jet to Pittsburgh. He collects Jagger and they ride to the airport, hop the plane and land out on Long Island. Jagger sleeps the entire way; even in the car to the airport.They reach the Hamptons, Jagger is picked up by Ahmet, Jerry rents a car home to Connecticut. Bianca is already there. And Cavett is staying out there, too.
It's the little things, folks
