Lesley-Ann Jones with 'Songbird: An intimate biography of Christine McVie'...talking to TRE's Giles Brown
Christine McVie - one of only two British girl rock musicians in the ‘60s and part of the greatest pop soap opera of all time. Neither in the backline or the frontline but occupying a unique middle ground. Packed it in for 16 years then returned to the fold. Lesley-Ann Jones' fresh and emotional memoir Songbird follows “the trajectory of a male rock star played by a woman”, the home she was keen to escape, the outer limits of life in Fleetwood Mac's “toxic Camelot” and the rigours of holding her ground in a man's world. We cover all sorts here including … … the lasting effect of not having “an ordinary mother”. … the night in Sunderland that made her think again. … when your best friend sleeps with your fiancée. … supporting the Shadows when she was 15 at the 2I's in Soho. … Etta James, Chicken Shack and playing the Reeperbahn. … why rock stars can never be part of a village community. … Fleetwood Mac's West Coast Elysium: “they were all as bad as each other”. … “cute and dangerous” meets “lifeline and anchor”: the love affair with Dennis Wilson. … why she and John McVie both needed a wife. … and her lifelong connection with the blues, “a sadness you can't cure”.

The Rolling Stones turned 60 this year, so today we speak with author Lesley-Ann Jones about her new book, The Stone Age: Sixty Years of The Rolling Stones. We talk about a few songs, clear up some of Keith Richards' most insane rumors, and go deep into the chaos surrounding the making of Exile On Main St. Lesley's knowledge and in-depth research is remarkable, honed by her time touring with the band. So let's find out what it was really like on the road with the Rolling Stones. Hint: it's not all as glorious as you might think.https://www.lesleyannjones.com/Photo by Dave Hoganhttps://www.songfacts.com/https://www.facebook.com/songfactshttps://twitter.com/Songfactshttp://pantheonpodcasts.com/https://twitter.com/pantheonpods Hosted and Edited by Corey O'Flanaganhttps://twitter.com/ofe1818https://www.instagram.com/coreyofe/corey@songfacts.com Songfacts Podcast Spotify Playlisthttps://open.spotify.com/playlist/3IThMW5yB8XnFh5cS2gTxR?si=KAhiqWRcSIy5uxb2sZPFTA This show is part of Pantheon Podcasts.
