If May is comfortable presenting John as a dangerous loonie that she somehow managed to put up with, rather than taking the time to dig deeper, should we be asking ourselves if this is actual love or 'watered-down love'?Hmm, I can't find any record of such an inquiry. I'll quote May's account of the Polanski incident in a new thread.His behavior at the Troubadour made the papers. He had the Kotex on his forehead, and their waitress sneered at him. He asked, "Do you know who I am?" She replied, "Yeah, you're some asshole with a Kotex on his head."Surely someone asked John follow-up questions about what he said about Polanski?

This is the image Yoko used for the cover of her first post-Dec. 1980 album, Season of Glass.
Does anyone have any speculations as to why she would do this? Her own record company told Yoko this was in bad taste. Yoko herself stated that this cover was necessary to remind people that John

On her next album, Yoko superimposed an image of John onto a contemporary photograph of her and Sean. She also claimed to have

Yoko enticed John back to the Dakota by promising him a smoking cure; next thing, he was back at the Dakota -- still smoking, of course -- and Yoko

Yoko knew how to regress and dominate John. (Remember the disturbing Annie Leibovitz photograph of the naked Lennon clinging to the impassive, clothed Ono? John said that that image perfectly captured theirThen there's John Green's account of meeting Lennon at this time, with Ono telling Green: "I think John's been poisoned."May was right.

airplanes and ships. As Goldman cautiously wrote, this decision of Yoko's "demands to be pondered."So Yoko had this manipulativeness, and then you factor in the drugs, the occult, and Yoko's likely timing of John's arrival to occur when she was at maximum fertility.I agree. I think we can now see the extent of Yoko's desperation to force John to return to her and keep him in her thrall until he was dead...
I too had that insight about Annie L's last photo of John and Yoko...John is completely open and has nothing to hide...while Yoko is shrouded in darkness and mystery...
I think this can also cause us to ask some tough questions about John's death...

PamelaI believe MDC was a lone nut (and an acid-casualty; no surprise there) with no prior connections to Yoko.
However, I am very suspicious of why Yoko sent John into the so-called Bermuda Triangle at a time when Yoko was superstitious as she was and popular culture was full of rumors about the region's ability to swallow
religious environment -- and that this made her susceptible to MDC's Mansonesque religious mumbo-jumbo. And as for her seeming normality, wasn't she aware of his motive in traveling to New York City? This would make her morally responsible for failing toI see qualities of a man-can with MDC and John's assassination....I can't seem to get away from that...
And yes, I do consider it entirely possible that Yoko deliberately sent John into harm's way in the Bermuda trip...
PamelaI used to wonder about MDC's Japanese-American wife Gloria. How did such a disturbed and porcine guy end up with a delicate-featured, seemingly normal woman like her? Then I remember that she was raised in a strict

Yoko when she learned that Lennon at made it through sea squalls to the island. Yoko looked at Sam and said, exasperatedly, "What are we going to do now?***
I consider Gloria a possible controller. She certainly knew how to push his buttons. And I do not think she has been completely honest with her answers.
Back to Bermuda, I know of a respected professional musician who met with Sam Green on an anniversary of Lennon's murder. Green was Yoko's lover (she intended to marry him) at the time of the Bermuda trip. He was with
shot. He said John gave Chapman the Double Fantasy album and then signed it. He pointed out the private courtyard and said that if John's limo had let them out in there instead of on the street, he would have been safe, at least that day. He pointed out***
That speaks volumes, imo. I guess we have our answer. Thank you for sharing this...

P.S. I don't know if I told you about my trip to NYC and the Dakota after John died. I went with a friend, also from Minnesota. We talked to a garage attendant who was there in the afternoon and that night when John was
have been a catalyst in Lennon's return to songwriting.Yeah, I've seen photographs of their car, and it looked a lot like that, though it would have been a slightly earlier model. IIRC, Fred was driving John around when they heard McCartney's "Coming Up" on the radio, which mayThanks for the anecdote! Was the car a Mercedes station wagon?***
It could have been. Not unlike this one... https://www.mercedesmotoring.com/cars/194/
productive John Lennon. Think of his guest stint at the radio station in 1974. His wit and humor -- and his pride in his work -- were in full swing.I really like the intricacy of it.Even if I were unaware of Lennon's murder, I'd consider the Dakota forbidding-looking. There's a reason Polanski used that building -- rechristened the "Black Bramford" -- as the setting for Rosemary's Baby.***
It is indeed. Even the gargoyles seem ready to screech and attack you...it is ironic that it i also so beautiful...
https://www.pinterest.fr/pin/84653667971318015/
And there is, of course, a tragic Beatles/Lennon connection to Rosemary's Baby through the Charles Manson murders. Sharon Tate was married to Polanski and frequently on the set during the filming...
It was the same night as the Kotex-Toubadour incident, and the same night Lennon knocked Jesse Ed Davis unconscious with a bottle. He was out of his mind.And there was that weird episode during one of Lennon's drug- and alcohol-fueled rampages in L.A. during which Lennon kept insisting, "It's Roman Polanski's fault!" (It's not clear what the "it" in question is.)That is truly bizarre...until you think of the possibility that John thought there was a curse on the Dakota because Polanski had filmed Rosemary's Baby there...
I meant that he was extremely high. He'd started in at Lost on Larrabee, then progressed to guzzling "milkshakes" at the Troubadour.May mentions in her book that she didn't understand why Lennon was raging against Roman Polanski, since they had met Polanski on a few occasions and Lennon had never showed any animosity towards the Polish director.I am starting to think catch phrases about John, such as 'out of his mind' may be a kind of psycho-babble.
I believe that she loved him and put up with his faults. We've known Lennon was dangerous when inebriated since the Bob Wooler incident, if not earlier.If May is comfortable presenting John as a dangerous loonie that she somehow managed to put up with, rather than taking the time to dig deeper, should we be asking ourselves if this is actual love or 'watered-down love'?Hmm, I can't find any record of such an inquiry. I'll quote May's account of the Polanski incident in a new thread.His behavior at the Troubadour made the papers. He had the Kotex on his forehead, and their waitress sneered at him. He asked, "Do you know who I am?" She replied, "Yeah, you're some asshole with a Kotex on his head."Surely someone asked John follow-up questions about what he said about Polanski?

When one steps back and takes the two notorious Troubadour incidents (one of which was triggered by Yoko calling to tell John that David Spinozza had earlier given her a "really great fuck"), in context, one sees a by-and-large happy and
when he was comfortable, the affection he had for May as a lover, etc. I see a balanced portrait and no reason to suspect any sort of cover-up on May's part.I have to wonder if May was simply 'putting up with his faults', as she seems comfortable presenting him as a hopelessly dangerous loonie. I think we may find that there is another level of cover-up about what was really going on...I accept May's portrait of John as a man with his share of plusses and minuses. The negatives include the Troubadour incidents, the fear of May's diminutive Chinese mother, and -- worst of all -- susceptibility to Yoko's manipulations.
The plusses include the focus Lennon was able to bring to his songwriting (with the notebook at his bedside) and studio work (recording Walls and Bridges at astounding speed and having it out in weeks), and the humor and warmth he had for friends
liars; they can't keep their stories straight.)Your choice.
I don't buy it. In fact, the more of May's statements I read, the more they sound like Yoko's...Yoko didn't think so! Why would she have sent Mintz out to deny every single one of May's claims? (Of course, as the years passed, Mintz forgot all this, and admitted that events he had disputed had in fact occurred. That's the thing about habitual

I'm struck by the contrasts in Yoko's and May's statements about John. Yoko began hammering away at the theme of John's homo- or bisexuality practically since his murder. Yet when Geraldo Rivera asked May if John was bisexual, May answered emphatically:
Yoko was dismissive of John's and the Beatles' music. May is full of praise for it.
The two women simply had starkly different attitudes towards Lennon.

Look at 20th century art, the modernists/surrealists/expressionists,
they did that type of thing. It's supposed to be shocking, "in your face"... punk
I can imagine Lou Reed doing something like that -
