John Lennon on Yelling at Sean

There are lots and lots of qoutes from John Lennon lately (negative) because of that forth coming new book about him entitled ‘John Lennon: The Life‘. So here’s another quote from John Lennon about him shouting at Sean, when he was 4 years old.

John Lennon on Having Sex With His Mother

This may not be a quote a John Lennon Fan may want to hear but I have to include it here… This is from the Audio diary of JOhn Lennon.

“I was just remembering the time I had my hand on my mother’s t*t in 1 Blomfield Road.

“It was when I was about 14.

“I took a day off school, I was always doing that and hanging out in her house.

“We were lying on the bed and I was thinking ‘I wonder if I should do anything else?’”

John And Paul Conversation: Beatles giggling tape

In the footage, The Beatles appear to have particular difficulty recording one track, called “I’ll Follow The Sun,” with several false starts and light-hearted banter.

The auction house said John Lennon can be heard saying: “I’m not looking at you,” and McCartney says: “You were.”

Lennon says: “It’s just going to get funnier and funnier as the evening goes on,” and “It’s 11 o’clock you know.”

McCartney replies: “Let’s just try this once more and if it’s the last one that’s hard lines.”
