John Lennon's 31st birthday party

[SuperRobertoboy]

Poor John Lennon - he should have just stayed home, instead of moving to New York and befriending a lot of charlatan creeps like Ginzberg and Spector.

[1GoodRiddance]

I can see Spector, Ringo. Is Donovan over there as well?

[DealioTV]

You need to take this super 8 and slow it down I can do it I transfer film .

[MacLenHarStar]

WHere is George?

[AlineFrsA]

Now, we are at 31 John's anniversary death, This hurt so much.

[GedopPa]

[2hamboigahs]

You like carrots? All I'm saying is give peas a chance.......

[MrHideyoursheep]

Phil Spector is Armed, (Watch Out)! Thoes are not blank's.

[RingoRaeRiley]

I didn't like this video because it went to fast. Not saying I hated it... I just didn't like how it went so fast. I'm not trying to be a smart ass,or trying to offend you. I just... Didn't like how it was.

[NeilFraudstrong]

@RingoRaeRiley

It's a Super 8 film. Super 8 films are naturally fast like this.

[Chiochipsrs]

@NeilFraudstrong: Lennonology? You mean Lennon Ono logy, right? XD

[NeilFraudstrong]

@Chiochipsrs

No, I just like to pretend that she doesn't exist.

[dhislexic]

@NeilFraudstrong You DO know that John was in love with this woman?

[NeilFraudstrong]

@dhislexic

I've never said that John didn't love Yoko.

[dhislexic]

@NeilFraudstrong I didn't say he didn't, sorry for the way I put that, what i meant was that he was madly in love with this woman, so much so that they were a part of one another, without Yoko, John's ideals would never have taken form. (His ideas on discrimination, peace, love.)

[dramaeco]

My wife's grandfather made the cakes.

[Pollanski22]

john to spector: if ye wanna kill me kill me but don`t fuck with me ears!

[StigOHarrison]

And now Spector is doing porridge with his mad wig!

[sebringf1]

did you take this????? YOU met Lennon????

[NeilFraudstrong]

@sebringf1

No I did not film this. I am only 24 years old.

[sebringf1]

@NeilFraudstrong to bad... :(

[dmenkhau]

Yoko attempting to sing...

...but failing miserably.

[caesarmtnmama]

Would have absolutely loved being on John and Yoko's short list in those days, I was barely legal, however, but would have contended to being the life of the party!

[lorenpiti]

COMO SE LLAMA LA CANCION?

gracias

[elbluto]

he HAS the whole world in his hands

[eiffel0189]

Happy Birthday, John... and Happy Birthday to me too... we miss you

[PsychoRaii]

Wish I was a fly on that wall,but Tricky Dick beat me too it...John Winston Ono Lennon LIVES IN ALL OF OUR HREATS

[LostWolf76]

Happy 70'th Birthday John, we love you, Rest In Peace.

[psyops71]

definitely Allen Ginsberg.

[kgeary007]

wow - I never knew this existed, party on today too and tomorrow John!

Happy Birthday!

[jzerony]

Who would've guessed that years later Phil Spector would put a bullet through Lana Clarkson's sinuses? I have a cassette somewhere where John Lennon talks briefly about Phil Spectors crazy gunplay... and how he'd bring guns to the recording studio all the time. The twisted psycho.

[QueenBeatlesWings]

John Lennon, George Harrison, Ringo Starr and Maureen Starkey, Eric Clapton, Beatles Roadies/Apple Records managers/ writer Neil Aspinal and Derek Taylor, Yoko Ono (and probably more not lsited) were present

[steamingpoopfart]

its phil spector

[oraya68]

Is it me or does this need to be slowed down a fraction?

[NeilFraudstrong]

@oraya68

It was filmed on 8mm tape.

[BobReidy]

George apparently did not come because John was pissed at him for not letting him bring Yoko to the Concert for Bangladesh.John said he would ahve played it if George let him bring Yoko and let her preform.John pulled out because George banned Yoko from it.

[garysescape]

The party was at the Hotel Syracuse in Syracuse NY where John and Yoko were for Yoko's show at the Everson Museum. I'd like to hear your audio.

[NeilFraudstrong]

You know, you're right. I have no idea why I said the St. Regis.

[lj28lj]

who's the guy playing guitar with sunglasses?

thanks for the upload!!!

[NeilFraudstrong]

If it's the guy wearing the FLY t-shirt then it's overrated producer and sub-par murderer Phil Spector.

[level9statedept]

@NeilFraudstrong youre right...i just got that...i never would of picked up on that if you didnt say so..spector is still in a circle right now...but its with 10other guys...rot in hell murderer!

[Kenny2WWE]

WOW!!! That was some birthday party. Was that Bob Dylan playing the guitar sitting on the chair? I see John, Yoko Phil Spector, Ringo and his wife Maureen, I cant make out anyone else. Neil tell me you have more of this video!!!

[NeilFraudstrong]

I don't have anymore video, but I have the complete audio. The audio can be found on a bootleg called Let's Have A Party which is pretty well circulated, but if you want I can upload it to YouTube.

[NeilFraudstrong]

I think I just uncovered more video from my personal archives. I will investigate the situation after the football games are over.

I make it sound like a United States institution. "The Neil F. Raudstrong Center for Lennonology Studies and Archives"

[Kenny2WWE]

LOL!!! Start your investigation!!!

[QueenBeatlesWings]

@NeilFraudstrong there is a smilar website that has info about the various Lennon films and videos and demos ever made but barely known about. its  homepageDOTntlworldDOTcom/caro­usel/pob15DOThtml

[Landrew120880]

Excellent footage. Good to see Ringo. I was gonna joke around and ask if Benny Hill filmed this but I didnt wanna be a dink.

[RunningWolfProductin]

Wow omg where did you get this?! 5/5
