Inhaltsangabe

The last major interview with John Lennon and Yoko Ono, conducted by New York Times bestselling author David Sheff, featuring a new introduction that reflects on the fortieth anniversary of Lennon's death.

Originally published in Playboy in 1981 just after John Lennon's assassination, All We Are Saying is a rich, vivid, complete interview with Lennon and Yoko Ono, covering art, creativity, the music business, childhood beginnings, privacy, how the Beatles broke up, how Lennon and McCartney collaborated (or didn't) on songs, parenthood, money, feminism, religion, and insecurity. Of course, at the heart of the conversation is the deep romantic and spiritual bond between Lennon and Ono.

Sheff's insightful questions set the tone for Lennon's responses and his presence sets the scene, as he goes through the kitchen door of Lennon and Yoko's apartment in the Dakota and observes moments at Lennon's famous white piano and the rock star's work at the stove, making them grilled cheese sandwiches. Sheff's new introduction looks at his forty-year-old interview afresh, and examines how what he learned from Lennon has resonated with him as a man and a parent. This is a knockout interview: unguarded, wide-ranging, alternately frisky and intense.

‘A fascinating, detailed glimpse into the workings of a musical genius . . . A valuable piece of work’ The New York Times Book Review

Originally published by Playboy Press in 1981, just after John Lennon’s assassination, All We Are Saying is a rich and vivid interview with Lennon and Yoko Ono, wide-ranging in its coverage of art, creativity, the music business, their extraordinary childhoods, privacy, the true story of how the Beatles broke up, Lennon and Paul McCartney’s collaborations on the greatest Beatles songs, parenthood, money, feminism, religion and insecurity. Of course, at the heart of the conversation is the deep, rare romantic and spiritual bond between Lennon and Ono.

Sympathetic and insightful questions from New York Times bestselling author David Sheff set the tone for Lennon and Ono’s responses, and Sheff’s presence sets the scene, as he walks through the kitchen door of the musicians’ Dakota apartment and accompanies the famous couple to the studio, where they were recording what would turn out to be Lennon’s final albums. Sheff’s new introduction looks at his forty-year-old interview afresh and examines how what he learned from Lennon has resonated with him as a man and a parent. This is a knock-out interview and a crucial piece of Beatles history: playful, intense and inspiring.

‘Th[is] interview is lively proof that some of the best Lennon-Ono art was their life’ Time
