Summary
Ki Longfellow Stanshall is the brilliant, and yes, controversial author of several internationally best-selling books. She is also a prolific playwright, screenwriter, theatrical producer, soldier for women’s rights, world traveler, and oh, by the way, the second wife of the late Bonzo Dog Doo Dah Band’s iconic, singer, composer, and frontman Vivian Stanshall.
In this one-of-a-kind audio encounter between Ms. Longfellow and actor, author, and music historian Geoffrey Giuliano, the listener is afforded the rare opportunity to go deep inside the head and the heart of one of the most important and forceful female voices of our time on the subjects of art, culture, her turbulent life and times, and her amazing, almost otherworldly relationship with the great poet laureate of the '60s, '70s, '80s and beyond renaissance man Vivian Stanshall.
This is not to minimize the fact the obvious direction of this unexpected audio documentary is Ki’s decades-long love affair with Vivian, rather, to truly enter into the deeper level of these remarkable conversations you must understand that Ki and Viv are both, in their own way, important and timely artists.
Take heed, Ms Longfellow is no airhead rock groupie or pop band hanger-on, but rather, an important voice in her own right. To experience this sometimes rough and ready interview is to come away knowing far more about Vivian Stanshall as a man, lover, father and artist than any fan, follower, acolyte, or devotee might ever hope to expect.
