And Party Every Day: The Inside Story Of Casablanca Records - Plot & Excerpts
What actually came out of Neil Bogart’s mouth was more like, “Larry, I’m starting my own record company with backing from Warner Brothers. I think you’ve got a good ear for rock, and I want you to help run that part of the company. You’d own a piece of the business, but you’d have to move to LA. You want the gig?” He’d walked straight into my office while I was working my way through the daily glut of calls, and he broke the news in a completely oh-by-the-way fashion. No fanfare, no lead-up. Nothing. Just like that. The offer left me dizzy. I was game, of course, but I felt baffled by Neil’s overture—I had no idea what he thought I could bring to the table. There were many other players he could have approached, most with years more experience. Yet here was Neil, standing in front of me, insisting that I had a great understanding of the rock side of the industry and that’s where my attention should be focused. I was young, still felt invincible, and wasn’t quite experienced enough to know what I was getting myself into.
