Response: I interviewed John Lennon, and he was no ultra-left radical: His brief flirtation with 'serious revolutionaries' was much regretted
You reported on the 1968 interview with John Lennon that I published in the New Statesman, which revolved around Lennon's \"furious\" response to a letter attacking him and his song Revolution for being \"unfavourably compared to the BBC radio drama Mrs Dale's Diary\" (Day in the life: Lennon's six-hour interview with student revealed, 17 December). The article says Lennon was \"enraged\" by the letter, in \"Tariq Ali's radical journal\" Black Dwarf. As you say, \"The Beatles might have changed their image, but had lost none of their fire, [Lennon] insisted.\" And in January 1969, in his own letter to the magazine, Lennon expressed irritation at being \"ticked off\" by \"brothers in endless fucking prose\". It is therefore perhaps apt that you quote from the interview Lennon did with Ali and Robin Blackburn for Red Mole in 1971, to the effect that \"Lennon agreed with Ali that he was becoming 'increasingly radical and political'\".

Christmas with John and Yoko
[...] John and Yoko had been getting flak in the British press. In the aftermath, Tariq Ali's radical newspaper Black Dwarf published an angry \"open letter\", which accused Lennon of selling out to the establishment and claimed that the Beatles' music had \"lost its bite\". In the driver's seat was Lennon, looking much as he does in the colour photograph included with the Beatles' 1968 White Album: faded blue Levi's jacket, white T-shirt and jeans, dirty white sneakers, his shoulder-length hair parted in the middle, and wearing the now famous \"granny glasses\".

Christmas with John and Yoko
Publishes for the first time the full text of an interview with John Lennon and Yoko Ono, conducted at John's home, Kenwood, St George's Hill, Weybridge, Surrey, on 2 December 1968. John responds to an open letter published in Tariq Ali's radical newspaper \"Black Dwarf\", which accused him of selling out to the establishment. He reasserts the opposition to the violence of contemporary student protest implied in The Beatles' song \"Revolution\", and suggests that changing the world means changing yourself. He goes on to claim that for all their early \"moptop\" image and their acceptance of an MBE, The Beatles were genuinely subversive, while the success they achieved and the money they earned did not bring them happiness. The last songs The Beatles wrote together were on \"Sergeant Pepper\"; Yoko suggests that the most creative thing the couple did in 1968 was planting acorns for peace at Coventry Cathedral.
