John Lennon, one of my favourite artists talking about Bob Marley, one of other favourite artists, if only they would have played together at some point it would be like a dream come true as far as music goes for me haha :), another one of them if onlys. I wonder if Bob and John ever met? i read on yahoo answers that they never did and i guess the didn't but who knows?

@JohnLennon100 What you write here makes sense but I couldn't find my coment to remember what I originally wrote. I couldn't go against your comment because I agree. John was a genius that 70% of the time would find inspiration in other music, usually black, that he he would make his own. He would create an entirely different song out of a basic melody, and actually making it better. Also John was a producer genius. His demos never sounded really impressive, but the final recording was awesome.

Oh no doubt.John admits that without Elvis there would be no Beatles.He also said he loved Stax lable musicians.

I know a lot of people are wondering about the videotape of these sessions because someone was filming. The widespread rumor was that Yoko destroyed them for whatever reason and if they existed then they probably would've been released by now. There was a story that said that no one in Yoko's camp didn't want them shown because that John didn't look very healthy and he was very thin at the time and that John was very self conscious about how he looked in public.

@bushwick FYI they are coming out next month with a remix of this album

It's so interesting listening to John and company putting the tracks together for what sadly turned out to be his last album. His wide knowledge of composition is clearly evident here. It is great listening to a master compose.
