Lennon himself said he was unhappy. Pictures are nice but not arranged in chronological order as her first book is. In her book loving john May details that John left her several times, for a whole month in LA, beat her several times and wanted to break up with her over and over. He may have had a few happy days but that does not mean he was happy regularly. So she changes her story again… for money.

Who fucking cares?

I thought that this book was absolutely terrific and very full of important insights. John seemed very happy and relaxed during this time and the photos are amazing. Lucy Lennon seems very bitter and totally off base.

Although Lennon would publicly lament this period, he did not do so in private. Journalist Larry Kane, who befriended Lennon in 1964, wrote a comprehensive biography of Lennon which detailed the “Lost Weekend” period. In the interview with Kane, Lennon explained his feelings about his time with Pang: “You know Larry, I may have been the happiest I’ve ever been… I loved this woman, [Pang] I made some beautiful music and I got so fucked up with booze and shit and whatever.”[24][25]

John said it himself Lucy. Remember once something is written you can’t take it back!!!

I know you will try to turn it around but don’t bother. Everyone cover your ears and say LALALALALALALALA

I’ve seen the book, and it is very nice. Also features an unseen shot of John and Paul together by the pool and Paul and Ringo sitting at a piano together, obviously having a good time. Both must be within days of each other, since Paul has the mustache and soul patch he had at the time for a while. ‘74?

John Lennon loved the simple family life with asian women. Now asian women are more complex, complicated as well as educated.

I can’t say I read the first book or know anything about it, but I want to see this new one for the photos.

May herself confirms how unhappy John was with her in her first book “Loving John”. She states over and over how John was drunk, in fact she gave John being drunk MORE publicity then the two Troubador incidents. In her book she states six examples of John going on a drunken rampage. May also states several times in detail how John beat her and wanted to end the relationship more then once. How can she carry on now like it was some great love affair when she in her own words described how terrible this relationship was?
Sorry, once you put something in print you can’t take it back like it never happened.

It’s incredible to see all these new photos of John being happy and productive during that time period, which proves what May has always said. May’s book restores a significant portion of John’s legacy, which has been tainted by all the myths over the years.
