Happy Anniversary

It was 50 years ago today, the White album began to play
And the rest is history.

Random memory #1:
I remember my dad and uncle listening and singing along with the chorus of Bungalow Bill when they were drinking beers late one night.

Random memory #2:
I also remember my older brother and I listening from start to finish for days on end
A year or so later, he spinned Revolution #9 for me backwards, and it truly gave me the creeps.
Being only six or seven at the time, it was like black magic hearing all the talking, etc..."turn me on dead man...".

Random memory #3:
Later on in high school a friend and I were frying on shrooms, and we played the White album from start to finish - it was like hearing it for the first time with a new set of ears!

The first time I saw "Love" in Vegas, when it was over the guy next to me & i both looked at each other & said "mushrooms" at the same time, haha.

My wife and I saw it when it was still relatively new, and I recall the built in speakers in to the seats were inducing major flashbacks!
It's been reworked a bit since then with some new additions I think, and have been meaniing to see it again, but never have the time while in Vegas as there's plenty of other new things to experience while we're there.
Seen many Cirque de Solei's throughout the years, and that one is definitely one of my favorites. Have yet to see the Michael Jackson one, and I think there was an Elvis version to - maybe one of these days will get around to seeing them.

I saw "Love" again several years on & there were definitely some changes. The Elvis 1 bombed & is gone. I went to the Michael Jackson 1 with low expectations & was blown away. It's almost as good as "Love".

Esher is a town in Surrey where George had a house called "Kinfauns". It's where they all convened after they'd come back from India. George had a four track tape recorder that enabled them to make demos with basic overdubs.

Re: Kinfauns (Esher).
I've seen a photo recently on this site of Brian stood by George's swimming pool at the house. George is in the shot also....maybe taken by Patti Boyd.Possibly early 1969.
A bit eerie really when you think about what happened to Brian not so long after.

Brian 'experts' might be able to offer a date as to when the photo was taken?

John Lennon And Yoko Ono Documentary, ‘Above Us Only Sky’ Airs On Channel 4 Tonight

Billed as “the untold story” of John Lennon’s ‘Imagine’, the documentary also explores how Lennon and Ono’s art, politics and music were intrinsically entwined.

Published on November 24, 2018
By Tim Peacock



A new John Lennon and Yoko Ono documentary entitled John And Yoko: Above Us Only Sky airs at 8.30pm tonight, 24 November, on UK television’s Channel 4.

According to previous reports in Variety, Above Us Only Sky’s producers Eagle Rock have secured previously unheard audio including the first demo of the legendary ‘Imagine’ for the documentary, as well as never-heard-before interviews with the one-time Beatle. Previously unseen footage will show him and Yoko working together in London.

Billed as “the untold story” of John Lennon’s ‘Imagine’, originally released in 1971, Above Us Only Sky also explores how the art, politics and music of the pair are intrinsically entwined. It also includes interviews with Yoko Ono, John Dunbar, Dan Richter and Eddie Veale, some of whom have never spoken publicly on film before, as well as never-seen-before footage of Lennon and Ono from their private archive.

“I feel in the big picture the fact that John and I met was to do this song,” Yoko says in her interview in the film.

Other voices in the documentary include David Bailey, the photographer who famously captured the couple in a 1971 photograph that ended up on the cover of Vogue. Lennon’s eldest son, Julian, is also part of the film. Emmy Award Winning and Oscar nominated Michael Epstein, of LennoNYC fame, directed the new documentary.

“The message of ‘Imagine’ is just as powerful today as it was when John and Yoko wrote it nearly fifty years ago,” Epstein told Variety in September. “I look at the world see it overcome with hate and engaged in wars seemingly without end, and I truly miss John’s voice. We need him now more than ever. And that is what we hope to do with ‘Above Us Only Sky,’ show how John and Yoko’s message of peace and love still matters.”

Terry Shand, CEO of Eagle Rock added: “With exclusive access to the extensive Lennon video, audio and photo archive, including much previously unseen material as well as interviews with a wide range of people directly involved with the recording, Above Us Only Sky is an exciting opportunity to tell this story fully for the first time.”
