spanish holiday: a collection
May Pang speaking about George Harrison’s confrontation with John Lennon during the Dark Horse tour. This would’ve been on 14 Dec. 1974. From May’s autobiography, Loving John. This story has been posted in the past, but it was without the ending, which I’ve not seen included before.
Paul McCartney & John Lennon - 1967 & !969
“When we used to get together after a month off, we used to be embarrassed about touching each other. We’d do an elaborate handshake just to hide the embarrassment…or we did mad dances.” - John, The Beatles by Hunter Davies
How I Won the War, 1967
your best american girl ft. lennison because I like to break my own heart
its almost infuriating he died cause he was serving so fucking hard in his last year I kinda wish he lived an additional year just so we could’ve witnessed a bit more of his pure unadulterated swag #thoughts
(from Unseen Archives) John looks like he's sneezing, George is off to his first day of school, and Paul's hailing a cab
Happy 50th anniversary to the last known photography of George and John together.
November 12th 1974.
“We once did a Ouija board thing when we were kids, it was just me, George… and John, I think… So we weren’t really into all that, but somebody just said, ‘Let’s do it.’
“So we’re touching the glass, you know, saying ‘OK, nobody push it, OK?’ So then, suddenly… whoa, it’s moving! Now, my mum had died a couple of years before and it says, ‘Congratulations… son…’ And we’re going, ‘NO!’ ‘Congratulations… son… number one… In NME!’ And so we were all, 'Oh, f**k off! There’s no way she would know what NME was’. And there’s George, you know (laughing). He’d been pushing it all the time! Bad boy!”
[Paul, NME, October 2010]
