New translation of John and Yoko's most important interview, including statements never before published in Japan!
A definitive look at music, society, and the Beatles, as described by John himself
In 2020, the 80th anniversary of John Lennon's birth and 40th anniversary of his death, the Tokyo exhibition "DOUBLE FANTASY: John & Yoko" is also attracting attention.
John and Yoko's historic interview is now available in a long-awaited new edition!
We present a new translation of the entire long interview, which was conducted in September 1980 and followed the two men closely over a period of three weeks.
Upon his return to the scene with the album "Double Fantasy," the pair talk in detail about how they first met and John's time as a househusband.
John speaks frankly about the Beatles' songwriting and his thoughts about the band members.
It is an autobiography in which John and Yoko summarise their lives and work up to that point, and also his will, outlining his vision for the future of humanity.
It has been published in book form twice before in Japan (in 1981 and 1990), but this book is the complete version, including valuable exchanges that were omitted at the time, as well as a preface by the author.
Now, with the world in such extreme turmoil, we desperately need this vision and philosophy that leads to "true love and peace."
