Local journalist Bill King’s newest book, LARGE TIME: On the Southern Music Beat, 1976-1986, covers a range of Southern performers, from The Allman Brothers Band to Dolly Parton to Athens legends R.E.M. King spent a great deal of his career covering pop music, television and film for the Atlanta Journal Constitution, a time during which he interviewed and saw performances by countless musicians like Billy Joel, Dionne Warwick and Frank Zappa. He draws from his wealth of knowledge and experience in the music industry for LARGE TIME, much of the research for which came from his own archive of past writing and interviews. This event will include a discussion of the book and an audience Q&A session with Bill King and David Hinchberger, who wrote the book’s prologue.
