John Lennon & Allen Klein | The John Sinclair Freedom Rally (Audio)

Подробнее о видео

This unearthed phone call captures John Lennon in conversation with Beatles manager Allen Klein, planning their role in the John Sinclair Freedom Rally—a landmark moment in Lennon’s political awakening.

Over the course of the call, Lennon debates whether to perform “Attica State” or “Luck of the Irish,” weighs the balance between protest and performance, and shows surprising vulnerability about stepping into political territory. Yoko Ono’s involvement is also discussed, and Klein’s role in facilitating the event is clear.

Just days later, Lennon would take the stage in Ann Arbor. Three days after that—John Sinclair was freed. This moment marks the true start of Lennon’s post-Beatles activism. Raw, unscripted, and real.
