In the early morning hours of March 18th, 1990, two men dressed as police officers talked their way into Boston's Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum.

Over the next 81 minutes, they tied up the guards, stole 13 works of art, including paintings by Rembrandt, Vermeer, Degas, and Monet.

My guest today has spent more than half a century behind the scenes with some of the biggest names in music.

But Eric Barrett's remarkable career began in the late 60s when a young Scotsman found himself working on the road with Jimi Hendrix.

It is a firsthand account of life on the road during one of the most transformative periods in music history and of the man Eric knew before Jimi Hendrix became a legend.

Eric, thank you so much for being here.

Thank you, Tim.

Thank you for having me.
