John loved Yoko - he left his stuff to her -- she can do wahtever the heck she wants like any wife who gets her dead husband's stuff.<BR/><BR/>you need another hobby. one that you are good at, dude.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34909527.post-34729238952630238202008-08-21T08:29:00.000-04:002008-08-21T08:29:00.000-04:00I saw this exhibit when it came to Boston over amo...I saw this exhibit when it came to Boston over amonth ago and it is tinged with fakery. Being a published writer on the Beatles I was armed with facts. One of the things that this group sells is supposedly original lyrics handwritten by John. I stood there with the salesperson while she explained to me and the gathered people about these pieces. I asked her about the displayed lyrics to "Drive My Car". I asked her why would John have hand-written the lyrics to a song that Paul McCartney had written? I also pointed out 3 or 4 other examples of this on display. She had no answer and the gathered group laughed a bit.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34909527.post-83239050723071060452008-08-17T13:38:00.000-04:002008-08-17T13:38:00.000-04:00To say that these are fakes, is bull!

To say that something is a fake implies that Yoko pulled the wool over someones eyes. NOT TRUE! The original work came from John Lennon's hand, get over it!Vincent Vigilhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01522854075746999983noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34909527.post-46506499814611023872008-08-17T02:49:00.000-04:002008-08-17T02:49:00.000-04:00This is something that has annoyed me for years.

I agree with you that it is both fraud and also demeaning to the original artist who never authorised hs work to be used in these ways.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
