it. When the Stones came here for that first tour they were poor, they were brilliant. We had a lot of parties -- weiwere/ia party. One of the best took place the night the lights went out in New York. That was in 65. The Stones were in a hotel on the West Side. Brian was there playing his harp when the lights went out.brbrYou could see America through their eyes. The Stones loved the attitude and energy of New York; we'd walk it and we'd talk it. Andrew loved New York, too. It was a movie come true for him -- the Brill Building and 1650 Broadway, running around from office to office listening to that Jewish rock 'n' roll coming out of New York. It all had that sweet sound, the Carole King sound, the music of Bob Crewe. It wasn't 'I see a red door and I want it painted black.' It was more up; it was pop.brbrbAl Kooper/b, musician/writer/producer: I was weaned at 1650 Broadway in NYC from 1958 to 1965. I started in the offices of Leo Rogers, an underhanded personal manager with a great deal of charisma. 1650 was the 'real' Brill Building. 1619 Broadway was the 'actual' Brill Building, but two hundred times more action and success took place in 1650. The 'actual' Brill Building was the last bastion of Tin Pan Alley and was widely regarded as an old man's building. Other than Leiber, Stoller, Bacharach, Barry and Greenwich, everything else took place at 1650 Broadway. The problem was 1650 was just 1650; it had no title to hang any memorabilia on. So the Brill Building gets all the credit, but that's completely false. In the offices of 1650: Paul Simon, Tony Orlando, Carole King, Gerry Goffin, Barry Mann, Cynthia Weil, Neil Sedaka, Lenny Bruce, Dionne Warwick, the S@8@  (less)

began as a two month expedition to tell the story behind the inimitability of each country visited. I think Ben describes it best when he said this is probably the craziest part... I simply choose to revisit the two hardest and most spectacular rivers in two of the most dangerous places on earth. Placing one descent on each side of a month long expedition to still unknown canyons of interior Brazil seemed like a fitting centerpiece to the most spectacular kayaking expedition I could dream up. I am still amazed that it all came to fruition."  (less)
