This is hour 2 of The David Sirota Show on Tuesday, July 26, 2011, featuring at the beginning of the hour an interview with David Browne to talk about his book Fire and Rain: The Beatles, Simon and Garfunkel, James Taylor, CSNY, and the Lost Story of 1970. As the account of a single year in music, Browne weaves the narratives of four bands and artists who each released an album of lasting influence in 1970: The Beatles' Let It Be, Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young's Deja Vu, James Taylor's Sweet Baby James, and Simon and Garfunkel's Bridge Over Troubled Water.

David Browne is a Rolling Stone editor and frequent contributor to The New York Times. find book at:
