The Smith Tapes

Written by , Posted in Vanity Fair

My high school friend Ezra Bookstein is behind this incredible uncovering/remastering of hundreds of hours of long-lost interviews with musical and political luminaries of the 60s and 70s made by famed local WPLJ radio personality and Village Voice columnist Howard Smith. We acquired an exclusive sample at Vanity Fair, where John Lennon and Yoko Ono explain the breakup of the Beatles. Read all about it, and listen to the clip.
