A Great Interview with John Lennon


I posted a link to my column over at my online writers' workshop, Zoetrope, and a friend pointed me to a great interview with John Lennon and Yoko Ono by Tariq Ali and Robin Blackburn in 1971. You can read the interview here or check out a print version in Tariq Ali's Streetfighting Years: An Autobiography of the Sixties.

John is very candid about being a Beatle, religion, politics, feminism and more!

Have you heard the famous 1970 "Rolling Stone" interview with John Lennon? It caused much scandal. I believe a podcast is available through iTunes in two parts but it looks like you can hear it here in 5 parts. Audio from his interlocutor, Jann Wenner, is a bit spotty:
