John Lennon Radio Interview Found After 30 Years Lost
 
(PRWEB) - (PRWEB) August 24, 2005 -- Unheard since it was first broadcast, this 25 minute interview with John Lennon finds him in a relaxed mood, discussing many different aspects of his life. It was recorded after he had got back with Yoko Ono following what he calls "a tough year" away from her, known as his "lost weekend."

The interview has been made available for anyone to buy and download from the internet in audio MP3 format exclusively at audioVille.co.uk, the speech-audio download website.

Discovered in a deteriorating condition on an old 8 inch reel, the interview has now been restored, digitized and made available to the public to download for $7.

Lennon talks in depth about the issues he had with the US authorities and the Nixon administration who he believed kept him under watch. Lennon also discusses his life, his relationship with Yoko Ono including their "mutual separation" in 1973, working with Phil Spector, his former Beatles colleagues, and his music, naming his best piece of work as 'Imagine'.

This fascinating interview adds another dimension to the Lennon story and allows all his fans to hear the man themselves. It is also timely since it is 25 years since his death in December 1980.

Oliver Rowe, co-founder of audioVille comments "This is a superb discovery and makes captivating listening. Lennon is amusing, interesting and candid, coming across as back on course after a bad 1974, and in his own haunting words is a man who "apart from acts of God, will be around another 60 years or whatever" continuing to make music "until I drop."

There is...a part of it.
Press on the loudspeaker. :)
