Bigger Than the Beatles

Richard Ogden was born on the dark side of the edge of town, that’s Seaton Carew, the posh end of Hartlepool. He escaped to London in 1968 and bit by bit began doing publicity and then management for some of the biggest names in music. From Nick Garvey of the Motors (also a Seaton lad), Joe Cocker, The Rolling Stones, Hawkwind, The Sweet, Motorhead, Jean-Michel Jarre,  Shirley Bassey, Black Oak Arkansas, Black Sabbath, Ted Nugent, Paul McCartney, Michael Jackson, Aerosmith, Mariah Carey, Ricky Martin, Michael Jackson and Van Morrison. This book is crammed with super anecdotes and the occasional cock-up! You can find it at Amazon.
