Celebrated music producer John Simon has produced some of the greatest rock ‘n’ roll ever recorded including The Band’s "Music from Big Pink", "The Band", and "The Last Waltz", Janis Joplin’s "Cheap Thrills," Simon and Garfunkel’s "Bookends," and the first albums by Leonard Cohen and Blood, Sweat And Tears.

His contributions to popular music have helped tell the story of a generation in the 1960s and 70s, and now he is sharing his own. John Simon’s new book is: "Truth Lies & Hearsay: A Memoir of a Musical Life in and out of Rock and Roll."
