"Ken has a unique gift. He can take you in the room and you sit with the folk he knows and make you one of the gang, part of the plan. And considering these folk include the Beatles, that is some doing. I respect the affection he has for our game, and what he brought to it will get you."–Andrew Loog Oldham, Manager and Producer of the Rolling Stones (1964 - 1967)
“I lived through the record industry’s most exciting years with Ken…it is a pleasure to experience so much of it all again through the accuracy of his story telling and the clarity of his memory.”—Peter Asher, Peter and Gordon, A&R Chief of Apple Records, Multi Platinum producer
