Miss O'Dell: My Hard Days and Long Nights with The Beatles,The Stones, Bob Dylan, Eric Clapton, and the Women They Loved Audiobook

" Loved it! Of course, I like all things Beatle, but this was an insiders' view of the Apple era and of several other superstar groups. Chris' tale has the ring of truth. We all knew these things were going on, but the real story is still amazing. "

" A remarkably well-written and detailed account of a rock insider (and girlfriend). Obviously based on diary entries since the chronology is scrupulously accurate--unlike most others of the genre. "

" O'Dell has an interesting tale to tell and she tells it clearly and quickly. The tone is kind, honest, and appreciative. She doesn't dish a bunch of dirt or dwell on evils and excesses, but manages to make the Beatles and the Stones be people, for the most part. On the other hand, there isn't a lot of emotion or analysis, which I suppose is better than a bad attempt at it. An excellent beach reach. "

" Imagine an era when an ordinary fan could simply "fall in" with rock royalty and spend years working with popular music's most amazing talents...and biggest egos. I enjoyed Miss O'Dell more than the similar Wonderful Tonight; the author just seems to come off as more of a real person. "

" This book was a fun read. I am a Beatlemaniac and any behind the scenes info on them is great for me. "

" I wanted more. An incredible story about being in the right place at the right time. Fascinating insight into some amazing legends. The stories were told with candor yet balanced with respect for privacy. She made me feel the glamour and the pain. "

" I listened to the audio version. This was interesting and entertaining,but I felt she was holding back a lot. The bits about George Harrison and his wife Pattie were enlightening. Until I read Clapton's book and this one,I always thought George worshipped Pattie...apparently not. "

" A fun and easy read that sends you head-first into the lives of rock gods we'd all like to be closer to. "

" Fun and lots of dish! "

" Chris O'Dell gave a wonderful behind the scenes look into the workings of Apple Records, tours with the Rolling Stones, Bob Dylan, Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young and how crazy the alcohol and drugs permiated the '70s. Good read! "

" Kind of trashy but fascinating. "

" This was a good read. Would be a 3.5 instead of a 3. It was interesting to read what happened up close and personal during the time. I felt like you actually got to know some of these artists and what they went through. "

" If you remember the 60s (or wish you could) this is a must read! "

" Fun, easy read. Loads of stories but nothing too juicy. "

" Sex Drugs and Rock & Roll - loved the book. "

" An interesting, fast read. Great for anyone that likes the music scene or biographies. "

" Chris O'Dell went to work at Apple Corps when she was 20, met the Beatles, the Stones, Bob Dylan & Eric Clapton. She became one of the first female road managers and had a lot of fun, except for the alcoholism. "

" I loved it! if you love the 60's and the 70s read this book "

" Kind of a fun read. Wish I'd read this before playing the Beatle Triva game. Insight into the fab four & many more from the perspective of someone who was in the trenches but still having a good time. I'm on sort of a rock & roll kick. "

" Fun and informative read, I'm a huge Beatle fan and learned a surprising amount of new information. "

" I'm not sure why I stayed with this til the bitter end, especially since the writing got progressively worse as the book went on. Guess I'm just a sucker for musician gossip, which this was chock full of. "

" this self-righteous woman is quite full of herself and a total mooch through the years of spending time with her rock 'n roll friends. she's just so unlikeable.... "

" I am such a sucker for rock and roll biographies. This one is a nice take on the backstage lifestyle from someone who was there through rock history's most famous moments. Chris O"Dell tells a very intriguing story and it makes you feel like you were there. "

" Continuing my reading of pop culture in the 60's.....really interesting insight into the Beatles off stage life! Loved the book! "

" This book was a fun read. I am a Beatlemaniac and any behind the scenes info on them is great for me. "
