LENNONYC Outtakes part 3 of 5 - john lennon and 'the lost weekend'.

there has been much written and spoken about a time during john and yoko's marriage where they needed to put some 'space' between them.
yoko suggested that john should spend sometime in los angeles.....and he did.
in this segment of outtakes from my comments to 'LENNONYC', i offer some of my recollections during the time i shared with john in l.a.
i understand that various people have presented their point of view about this period in john's life. i will not bicker with their perceptions. but, this is mine.

You are a CLASS ACT, Elliot !

this part strikes me as strange. lost weekend saw brilliant musical productivity and a reunion with julian and a reconciliation of sorts with various beatles. perhaps he was his most unhappy ever as mintz says, but i as a fan wonder why these things seem to have waned or ceased altogehter when he went back to yoko.

hi bunny luv. when the 'lost weekend' ended and he returned to yoko they conceived a child together.....and they created 'double fantasy'. please review the last sentence of your post.....

Elliot, you have stated you have your thoughts on the JFK conspiracy theory which I agree with also. My question is if you suspect that there may have been the same with John’s murder? John’s voice was very powerful and he was quite vocal about his perception of the powers that be in the US and elsewhere. My husband and I think John’s voice was silenced intentionally.

hi karen. after all these years, i have never seen any 'hard evidence' that would confirm john's death was a result of a conspiracy.

[@kareno6222]

May disputes this Elliot, what do you say?

[@elliotmintzvideos]

i am certainly aware of the fact that may has presented a picture of the 'lost weekend' experience that differs from mine. of course, she is entitled to her perceptions. i agree with some of them and have no 'personal issue' with may. but i stand by my reportage.

The guy in the middle..I don't envy you ...and still people are curious, want to know everything....Ive been listening today to Rock'n'Roll album ..Such a fun..Great Be-Bop-A Lula. fantastic medleys...Stand By Me..John Lennon's version is the best..he is not begging or asking , there is a sheer desperation in his voice..I'm not John's fan , I'm David Cassidy's fan so..what a pity he didn't took part in recording of this album even though John Lennon had invited him..And that night when they were playing together..Now I see it in different light .And they met in your house , David Cassidy wrote that in his biography....Thank you for sharing.
