Lennon Remembers is classic Lennon. It's not a sit-back-and-put-
your-feet-up read ... it's like a jolt on your nerves like bad, bad
espresso. People with weak stomachs should close the window before
reading. You might just feel like jumping out.
*Yoko Ono, from the Foreword.*
A must-have for anyone who loves and remembers Lennon.
*San Antonio Exporess*
Arguably the most legendary interview ever conducted with a major
celebrity.
*Library Journal*
As riveting a document as it was three decades ago ... there is
still nothing to rival this interview in the annals of rock
journalism-it has lost none of its power to shock.
*Rolling Stone*
Finds Lennon in fine form, still bitter about the breakup of the
Beatles, full of optimism about his future solo projects,
opinionated, emotional and full of life. It captures his mercurial
character more exactly than any other book on the Beatles I've
read.
*Independent on Sunday*
This is the only voice that will ever articulate what it was
really, really like to be in the Beatles when it all went
wrong-caught in a moment, rasping, raving, and flaming mad.
*Uncut*
