Marty Kramer

April 21st, 2026

He has photos with his arm around Ringo Starr (of The Beatles fame) and holding boots given to him by John Entwistle (bass player for the Who). They are just two of the many famous rock & roll musicians from the 1960s into the 21st century that Richmond-based Marty Kramer worked for as a tour manager and “fixer.” Now 78, Kramer shares his stories in his memoir Road Boss (Mosaic $24.95) written with David Wolinsky. This backstage glimpse into music history includes Frank Sinatra, Roy Orbison, Tina Turna, Neil Young and Kramer’s good buddies, Burton Cummings and Randy Bachman (The Guess Who). 9781771618083
