ROCKOLLECTIONS: GEORGE AND JOHN ON THE BBC PT.2

[Mike Pell]

Moving on to John Lennon in our remembrance of the lives of two men who were a part of something that probably will never happen again, the phenomenon that was the Beatles.
Dec. 8th 1980 is the unforgettable night John died of gunshot wounds.
I'll cherry pick some more from those 1963 BBC Sessions, highlighting John.
There is a fun moment in here regarding George Martin's non-appearance on the show.
I'll take you back for some more Roots Rock too.
Then some dialogue simply between a father and a son, but with a cute surprise in its content.
I'll end with a seasonal song, but more intimate with just John and Yoko- not the version with the Children's Chorus you are used to hearing.
What can I say? I miss those two guys and wish they were still around.
So, are the Beatles now half empty or half full?
Given the joy they provided in my life and so many other lives, does it even matter?

Jon,

Every time I do this, George has more listeners.

Interesting to hear the Christmas song without the little brats, LOL!

Thanks for the listen,

Mike

John Lennon still bores me.
