Author Paul Gorman shares words around new book Granny Takes a Trip: High Fashion and High Times at the Wildest Rock ‘n’ Roll Boutique. Regarded as the original rock and roll clothes boutique, the book tells the story of the boutique's history, a place which attracted the likes of Pattie Boyd, Marianne Faithfull and Anita Pallenberg to Elton John, Jimi Hendrix, Miles Davis, Mick Jagger, Rod Stewart, the Beatles, and Lou Reed.
