    This week on Rockonteurs we welcome lifelong friend of David Bowie, Geoff MacCormack to the podcast. Geoff met David when they were at school and remained friends throughout David’s incredible career.

Many of which can be seen in the stunning photographic memoir ‘David Bowie: Rock n Roll with Me’ – which includes a wonderful afterword from David.

    S4E18: Harvey Goldsmith 2 Apr 01, 2023
    Show notes

    Back for part 2 on Rockonteurs is the ever-excellent Harvey Goldsmith. Our chat with Harvey was 2 hours long and so we had to split it across 2 shows and this episode is a must-listen. The story of Live Aid, the story of Live 8, reuniting Pink Floyd, reuniting Led Zeppelin and so much more. To be honest we could have probably done a part 3…but enjoy a truly great Rockonteur!

    Rockonteurs with Gary Kemp and Guy Pratt returns and this week we welcome Harvey Goldsmith to the show. Harvey Goldsmith is one of those names that you instantly recognise from ticket stubs and posters and when you see that name you know you are going to a good gig!

    We chatted with Harvey for so long that we split the episode in 2! So, in part 1 you can hear all about how he started his career as a promoter, working with Pink Floyd, Bowie, Hendrix, The Grateful Dead, The Who and many more.

    Live Aid and getting Pink Floyd and Led Zep back together will be in part 2!
