  2. Slightly off topic, but on the streaming channel Tubi there is a show claiming to have George Harrison’s last testament where he explains the whole Paul is dead conspiracy. If you are an old fart like me you probably remember the rumors. And I like the Rolling Stones and The Who much more than the Beatles. Also John’s song “Imagine” is a bunch of Marxist carp.

  3. Lance Boyle,

    I loved the Beatles and the Stones. Saw the Beatles twice at Shea stadium in New York and the Stones at Ed Sullivan’s show. Met Brian Jones (remember him?) Keith Richards and Charlie Watts in midtown Manhattan at different times. Charlie was very low key and liked to mosey around and didn’t attract crowds. They were all gentlemen to me and my friends.
    Learned about Lennon’s murder while watching a football game from Howard Cosell of all people . A friend of mine actually saw Lennon’s arrival with Yoko Ono at the hospital soon after he was shot.
    Never liked “Imagine” (no heaven) and preferred George Harrison’s “My Sweet Lord” because it seemed to me that he was LOOKING for God .
    Lennon’s murderer should have had a date with Old Sparky up at Sing Sing.

  4. For anyone who might like to take a break from these dark times at 6:00 ET tonight you might try Cousin Brucie’s Rock and Roll party at 77WABC radio which can be heard online. It’s the NY radio station that actually had Charlie Kirk as a host.
    Cousin Brucie doesn’t share whatever his political views are and he also takes requests.
