JOHNNY "C" LENNON and BEATLE TREASURES



Oi vey!




Hey, here's a little twist (and wank) to the frankly, quite tired talk
about what John Lennon really meant when he opined that the Beatles were "bigger than Jesus." (Click on scan to enlarge.)
-
Although brushed off by Lennon as words taken out of context and flamed by the lunatic right-wing in the US, the recent auctioning of a signed copy of the teen mag Datebook, may provide yet more fodder for whichever side you're on.
-
Lennon, who at that time rarely signed a middle initial, scribbled a "C" which knowing John's sense of humour was most likely a take the piss out of those who had gone nuts over the affair.
(If in fact the "C" was short for Christ.)
-
The magazine fetched about 12 large.
-
Hey, Fabs' fans, a great new book authored by Terry Burrows could make a fab gift for any true
Beatlemaniac.
-
It is chock-full of reproduced Beatle mementos, and has a full album by album track annotation, as well as some solo effort stuff as well and other interesting tidbits.
