John Lennon at the 麻豆官网首页入口
Liza Tarbuck explores the 麻豆官网首页入口's archive of John Lennon's work, from his earliest days with The Beatles to his final interview, recorded 2 days before his death in December 1980.
As part of the John Lennon / Plastic Ono Band Artist Collection, another chance to hear Liza Tarbuck exploring the 麻豆官网首页入口's archive of John Lennon's work, from his earliest days with the Beatles up to his final interview, recorded 2 days before his death in December 1980.
Born on the 9th of October 1940, John Lennon's work both as a musician and as a high profile peace activist still resonates as loudly today as it did during his lifetime. He appeared frequently on 麻豆官网首页入口 programmes, which provide a fascinating insight into his creative output and worldview. His contributions were articulate, often controversial and always searingly honest as he talked about subjects including the Vietnam War, his protracted struggles with the US authorities as he tried and eventually succeeded in securing residency there, the break-up of The Beatles, his treatment by the press and the development of his music throughout the 1960's and 70's.
The featured programmes include his 1971 appearance on Parkinson alongside his wife Yoko Ono, performing his own poetry on Not Only But Also, talking to Bob Harris about his albums Rock 'n' Roll and Walls and Bridges on The Old Grey Whistle Test, an early 'pop profile' for the World Service with Brian Matthew, and his explosive 1969 interview with veteran New York Times War Correspondent Gloria Emerson, which was captured on film for the 麻豆官网首页入口's 24 Hours. Also featured are tracks from throughout his solo career, which were painstakingly restored and remixed for the collection Gimme Some Truth.
