About this listen

An action-packed memoir that takes listeners on the road with rock and roll's hardest-working photographer

Bob Gruen is one of the most well-known and connected photographers in rock and roll. For almost 50 years, he has documented the music scene in pictures that have captured the world's attention. Right Place, Right Time is Gruen's first written account of his winding, adventure-filled journey. He takes us on visits to John and Yoko's apartment, on a cross-country road trip with the Ike and Tina Turner band, to Glasgow with Debbie Harry, backstage with KISS, inside CBGB, and on the bus as he swaps steel-toed boots with Sid Vicious. In wildly entertaining stories and iconic images, Gruen gives the listener a unique window into the evolution of American music culture over the last five decades.

...I try to hold back on my thoughts on overpaid movie stars and musicians but Bob reinforces my frustration...while we pay for luxurious lifestyles and drug/alcohol abuse and idiotic, dysfunctional lives, people like Bob are as under-rewarded as the idiots are overpaid. His contribution to recorded history is as or more a contribution to recorded history as many of the glittered folks and it drives me crazy!! Still having tight monthly earnings at 74 should be the last thing in his life and shame on all those living in luxury who abused their time with him.
....and thank God there are Bob's in the world!

An amazing journey...
