thanks for the plug Dawn, and the kind words crazymom - it was very interesting and a lot of fun! She was less guarded than I feared she might be

I was lucky enough to be able to hear most of it, since I saw the post early! Excellent interview, and I like how she spoke about the “dragon lady” issue.

I think Yoko’s own artistic creativity had a great influence on John. With Yoko, he grew up, stood up for himself, spoke out for what he believed in and stepped out of McCartney’s shadow and overbearing personality (as you know, I’m not a big Macca fan).

Lennon really came into his own, creatively and personally, AFTER the Beatles broke up, and I think that was largely due to her influence. I don’t think that would have happened if the Beatles had remained together.

On a related note, I just finished the new Patti Boyd book “Wonderful Tonight” — check it out if you haven’t read it yet. Incredible insight into George Harrison and Eric Clapton. Another good book, “The Love You Make” by Peter Brown — the definitive Beatles biography, IMO.

OMG!! Regardless of what other people say about her, she is one classy woman. I think Beatles historians and fans have given her a bad rap, but she’s always held her head high. I admire her for that.
