Associate editor of the Rolling Stone Press - Patty Romanowski. The editors and entire staff of Rolling Stone worked tirelessly after John Lennon's death to create the January 22, 1981 special memorial issue, much of which is republished in this book. From the dust jacket: John and Yoko were born and raised during the bombings of World War II. Half a world apart physically, they were also poles apart in their respective upbringings and in the way they developed creatively. Their lives, in fact, provide a study in contrasts - male/female, East/West, avant-garde/rock & roll. But their meeting and collaboration as marriage partners, artists and workers for peace equally provide a testament to the unity of everything that lives. Their final days and dreams together are remembered and represented in this book by many of the same hands and hearts that gave testimony to their beginnings. The Ballad of John and Yoko contains many affectionate memories of the couple from contemporary musicians, including Mick Jagger, Joan Baez, Carly Simon, Frank Sinatra, Chuck Berry. More than a powerful biography, this book is a lasting tribute to two of the most remarkable artists of our time. Cover price: £9.95.
