About this episode
If all Klaus Voormann had done was design the cover of the Beatles’ Revolver, his place in rock history would be secure. The band needed artwork to match their bold musical leap forward, and he delivered striking black-and-white line drawings of his friends, with photos woven through their flowing hair. He recalls hearing the mind-blowing new music in the studio and struggling to draw one particular Beatle. Voormann also was Manfred Mann’s bassist and played with all four Beatles, including on John Lennon’s early solo singles and albums, All Things Must Pass and Ringo. He played bass on Harry Nilsson’s “Without You,” Carly Simon’s “You’re So Vain” and Randy Newman’s “Short People" as well. He’s been here, there and everywhere and wants to tell you.
