[DoojeenDoonican]

Amazing - how on earh did the filmmaker gain access to the grounds and interior of the house?

[boobah1067]

Nice! What's SFF, though? Sorry to be ignorant.

@boobah1067 Strawberry fields forever

[boobah1067]

@deniseemelierose Oh duh. Oops! HA HA HA!

[freddygoldstein]

Don't know why they would re-model the interior as it was a piece of history, and a time machine in a sense.They destroyed the vibe man (

Oh well at least it is being restored and not torn down )

Take a look at the Kenwood blog for all Kenwood stuff past and present:

Just fabulous. I remember that photograph at 9:11 so well. Saw a million times, but never knew it was taken at Kenwood. I too thank you for posting this.. Great to see, but I am shocked that it's not renovated and lived in.

[rhythmantic]

Wow, this is great. And that early version of Strawberry Fields, man!! Fascinating.

[jsilence418]

Beautifully done !

[cootercat486]

Why oh why does his Kenwood home look like this now?! Britian should be ashamed. I love John so much and it just breaks my heart to see this. But, I am truly thankful to you for posting it. I have been a Beatles fan since 1964 when I was only 13.

This is fantastic fans to see,.. thanks for posting

Excellent job on matching the two videos. Nature has really crept in over the years and spread around the property. I agree wth the earlier comment that it would have been nice to have kept the house the way John had it--Just for future generations to see how he lived. It would have had to become a national trust property for that to happen though. The soundtrack gives a really ghost -like eery feel to the comparisons made.

[Kaede266]

how did you film this? it´s beautiful.,,

[nightcrawler511]

i thought he lived in the dakota in NY??

[TheJesterGirl]

@nightcrawler511 Before he moved to NYC. When he was together with Cynthia.

[nightcrawler511]

@TheJesterGirl what house was in the imagine video

[TheJesterGirl]

@nightcrawler511 That was at Tittenhurst on london road. He lived there from '69-'71 together with Yoko.

The swimming pool was rebuilt after John lived there, in the opposite direction.

I can't watch this. It's too sad; like at a funeral.

OMG... is this amazing home now abandoned?? It looks a wreck!!

[starryian007]

One thing about John Lennon - he had exquisite taste in houses. This house is truly beautiful, much the same with his later Surrey Estate.

[Stube437]

amazing! That's where he wrote virtually all my fav Lennon songs!

[petnurse2007]

This is excellent. Thank you so very much for sharing.

[gregfarleyeverst69]

great video jumping back to the shots of lennon at home compared to how it looks now.

[ellonysman]

I would have kept the music area or recording area in original condition...but would have that made it worth more $....I dont know.

[aarfeld]

Thanks for the comparisons. I hope that the new owners undetake a renovation that at least somewhat reflects the home's appearance during the residency of its most notable owner.

[TheOrganicChannel]

A bit spooky but awesome!

[2Tellthetruth]

That was an absolutely amazing tour and reflection of John's home and what it all looked like for him. Thank you.
