John Lennon and Yoko Ono’s close friend, assistant and artistic collaborator Dan Richter takes us even deeper behind the doors of rock-and-roll history in part two of their conversation, recalling the making of Imagine with Phil Spector, what The Beatles’ breakup looked like from inside John and Yoko’s world, and John’s enduring artistic rivalry with Paul McCartney. He shares how Yoko’s relentless devotion to peace helped shape John’s creative evolution—and introduces us to a rarely seen side of Lennon, including his secret passion for doing hair. Dan reveals what he believes was the secret ingredient behind John Lennon’s musical genius, and at one point during the conversation the ghost of John Lennon interrupts the interview. Get ready for another intimate dose of two of the worlds most revolutionary artists told by someone who wasn’t merely there— he was part of the story.
