An interview with Shep Gordon about
the New Movie Supermensch, the Legend of Shep Gordon. In his directorial debut,
Mike Myers documents the astounding career of Hollywood insider, the loveable
Shep Gordon, who fell into music management by chance after moving to LA
straight out of college, and befriending Janis Joplin, Jim Morrison and Jimi
Hendrix. Shep managed rock stars such as Pink Floyd, Luther Vandross, Teddy
Pendergrass and Alice Cooper, and later went on to manage chefs such as Emeril
Lagasse, ushering in the era of celebrity chefs on television. Stuffed with
fantastic archive footage the film traces Shep's transformation from the 1970's
hedonist to today's practicing Buddhist yearning for a family of his own.
