    Yeah, he sounds a lot like his son.

    I'm surprised at how good it is. The lyrics (I know the piece is a joint effort) aren't bad at all. I'm sure Freddie Lennon had had an interesting life in the British merchant navy.

    John invited him to the release party for "Magical Mystery Tour" and they got drunk together.

    Their relationship seems to have been a series of reconciliations and falling-outs.

    Freddie married a much-younger woman named Pauline at some point, and she -- using Freddie's diaries -- wrote a remarkable book about the two called Daddy Come Home.
