American Music Channel is “Giving Back” through creating philanthropic campaigns that align charitable organizations and artists to make a difference in our world.

By: Andrew Vaughan

Everyone comes to Nashville at some point and I was recently honored to sit down for brunch with May Pang. Beatles fans will all know that May lived with John Lennon during the mid-‘70s. Naturally, this gracious firecracker of a woman had some great tales to tell, and I was able to pick her brains about one of her good friends Harry Nilsson. Nilsson enjoyed massive commercial success with two huge hits in the ‘70s: “Everybody’s Talkin’” and “Without You”. He had even more fame as John Lennon’s drinking buddy in LA in the mid-‘70s. There’s not a rock and roller from that time that doesn’t have a good word to say about Nilsson. He was larger than life, the ultimate party animal, generous to a fault, and loved by all who knew him.
