Very revealing and interesting! John Lennon wasn’t the best Beatle-—it was George Harrison.
The other Beatles were not amused with Lennon’s crazyness and problems he would take to work with him. Once, under the influence of drugs, he summoned the Bealtes to his home only to announce that he “was God”-—they were not amused.
I never saw George Harrison act like that. Paul McCartney could be obnoxious but not as crazy as John Lennon. Basically these people were the personification of too much drugs. It was truly amazing that they were able to do what they did despite their excessive drug use.
I had a commander in the Air Force who used to harp about Lennon and drugs all the time— “Yeah, Airman, you don’t want to end up like what’s his name Lennon”-—that’s right Colonel-—you don’t want to overdose on lead bullets!
I’ve always heard that the Beatles were in part responsible for the drug culture which hit the U.S. in the early to mid 60s. It was well known they were pot heads and pill poppers.
Don’t know if this is true, but, it makes you wonder.
