- Dennis Elsas: Without question my most memorable interview and on-air experience to date was on September 28, 1974, a Saturday afternoon I spent with John Lennon.
I had met him just a few weeks before at the Record Plant recording studio and casually asked him if he’d like to come up to the station to talk about his forthcoming album Walls and Bridges. I doubted anything would come of it, since none of the Beatles had ever visited our station before. When he showed up eager to talk, bringing with him some obscure 45’s he wanted to share with the audience, I didn’t know what to expect.
What began as an opportunity to promote the new album, turned into two hours of rare Beatle stories, insights into his immigration struggles, and John as the DJ, introducing and commenting on all the music, commercials and weather.
The complete show is part of the permanent collection of the Paley Center For Media (formerly the Museum of Television and Radio).
A very big THANKYOU from everyone at Lenono to Dennis Elsas.

Yeah probably
Great observation. He loved to sit and talk and discuss things.
Happy Birthday John!
Happy birthday John we all love you and miss you
Indeed we do
Dennis's interview was among the very best John did in the "Walls & Bridges" era, and it was an honor to present segments on "The Lost Lennon Tapes" radio series in 1988-89. Big H/T to DE from SKP.
I recorded them off the radio. Great show!
Denny Sanders of WMMS had an outstanding 1974 interview with John Lennon -- that has to be floating around the Internet: "He was wonderful.....I think because I didn’t ask stupid questions and I knew my stuff. I think he appreciated a good solid interview and he was very nice about it.”
Happy Birthday John!!!
🎂🎂
It's like a podcast
love you and happy belated birthday John!
@John lennon ✔ it's a good time
That was THE station back in the 70's. Makes perfect sense that John wanted to stop by.

Every interview I hear of John Lennon during his split with Yoko Ono he sounds so relaxed and happy, he even tried to reconnect his song writing partnership with Paul and guess what happened when Yoko got wind of it? She immediately got back with John and asked Paul to tell John she wanted him back, which Paul did.
Well said - always used to love hearing Yoko say they were ‘Partners’. No Yoko, you were a parasite, not a partner
happy birthday man
YESSS
I was 10 and heard some of this live riding with my dad in the car.

It’s so funny because he’s not too wrong when he says, "for the twenty people who have quad." Quadraphonic really didn’t sell all that well.
