Picking up where Samuel Johnson left off more than two centuries ago, Ray Robertson’s Lives of the Poets (with Guitars): Thirteen Outsiders Who Changed Modern Music offers up an amplified gathering of thirteen portraits of rock & roll, blues, folk, and alt-country’s most inimitable artists.

Irreverent and riotous, Robertson explores the “greater or lesser heat” with which each musician shaped their genre while offering absorbing insight into their often tumultuous lives. Robertson includes essays on Gene Clark, Ronnie Lane, The Ramones, Sister Rosetta Tharpe, Townes Van Zandt, Little Richard, Alan Wilson, Willie P. Bennett, Gram Parsons, Hound Dog Taylor, Paul Siebel, Willis Alan Ramsey, and John Hartford. In this episode, Robertson gives us the stories behind Gene Clark, Ronnie Lane, The Ramones, Little Richard, Gram Parsons, and John Hartford.
