      “Thanks for nothing baby. And I’ve been doing this for 100 years….thank you!”
      John still had it! But at the same time this is 4 or 5 years before he was murdered. Shortly after making a new quite brilliant start with Yoko. That’s unbearable…

      PS Forgot to mention … he was a violent yobbo too who kicked Stuart Sutcliffe (the so called Fifth Beatle) so hard in the head in 1961 that he developed a fatal brain tumour.

The song was shown either at the start or the end (can't remember) of the very interesting interview. I remember taping it on my old cassette recorder! Have a listen, it's on UA-cam.

On the following day, John would have his last public performance at ATV's Special "A Salute to Sir Lew Grade" - The Hilton - NYC, when he sang "Imagine" and "Slippin' and Slidin' ", backed up by a group of masked crackbrained musicians ... lol ...
