Welcome to this special 2-hour episode of our interview with Rocket Norton!
Rocket is an iconic Canadian rock musician who is perhaps best known as the former drummer for Juno-award winning band PRiSM (Spaceship Superstar, Take me to the Kaptin, Night to Remember). Rocket has also been quite busy over the subsequent years, working as a member of other notable bands including: The Rocket Norton Band, The Seeds of Time, The Experimental Warrior, Revolver: The World's Best Beatles Band, The Rhythm & Blues Explosion and Tangerine. Rocket also led the house band, Rocky & The Jets, on CKVU-TV's Vancouver show for several years.
PRISM Alumni Al Harlow, John Hall, Ab Bryant, and Rocket Norton teamed up with Ayotte Drums founder Ray Ayotte to perform many of the classic songs as The Authentics. The Authentics released a new EP in October, 2019.
Rocket is also an accomplished author, having published a book about his involvement in the Vancouver music scene called Rocket Norton: Lost In Space. He has also written four other books including two novels titled Live Love Die and He Was More Than He Seemed, a textbook titled, The Real All-Star Baseball Team of the Twentieth Century (By The Numbers) and a guide titled, A Guide for Men Who Are Getting Married Or Wish To Stay Married.
Another of Rocket's proud achievements is a rock-opera called Visions: Mission Andromeda that was recorded with the Vancouver Symphony Orchestra and performed at the Vancouver Planetarium for many shows. Rocket is also deeply passionate about coaching baseball. He created a video program called How to Coach Baseball to Kids that has sold thousands of copies. An online version is coming soon.

Best known as one half of '60s hitmakers Peter & Gordon, Peter Asher later enjoyed great success as a producer. Born in London on June 22, 1944, he was the older brother of Jane Asher, longtime girlfriend of the Beatles' Paul McCartney. While attending the Westminster School for Boys, he first met fellow student Gordon Waller, and together they began playing together as a duo. Asher's connection to the Fab Four was a crucial one, as he and Waller were often given unrecorded Lennon-McCartney songs to perform, most notably their first and biggest hit, 1964's decidedly Beatlesque "World Without Love."
After Peter & Gordon disbanded in 1968, Asher was named the director of A&R at the Beatles' Apple Records label, where he signed a then-unknown James Taylor and agreed to produce the singer/songwriter's debut solo LP. The album was not a success, but Asher maintained that Taylor held great potential, and he resigned his post at Apple to move to the U.S. to serve as Taylor's manager, a partnership which endured over several decades. He also emerged among the principal architects of the mellow California rock sound prominent during the '70s, producing records for Linda Ronstadt, J.D. Souther, Andrew Gold, and Bonnie Raitt. In the decade to follow, Asher also helmed hit albums for artists ranging from Cher to 10,000 Maniacs.
