12 avril 1968, John Lennon est de retour de son séjour de prés de deux mois en Inde. Il en revient déçu, pas forcément de la méditation mais beaucoup plus du maharashi en lui-même. Un homme finalement comme les autres...
Comme Paul, il en revient surtout avec beaucoup de chansons composées sur place. Parmi cette joyeuse bande en quête de spiritualité très "flower power", il y avait Mia Farrow et sa sœur Prudence. Prudence méditait seule dans bungalow, elle s'isolait et n'en sortait presque jamais. Sa sœur Mia, les Beatles et Donovan s'inquiétaient pour elle. John notamment passait la voir avec sa guitare pour tenter de la convaincre de "venir jouer dehors" avec eux. Il a fini par en faire une délicieuse chanson que l'on retrouvera quelques mois plus tard sur le White Album.
Anecdote un peu troublante : avant son départ en Inde avec les Beatles, Mia Farrow sortait du tournage de Rosemary's Baby dont le décor principal n'est autre que le Dakota Building à NYC. La première scène du film dans laquelle apparaît Mia Farrow se situe à l'endroit même où John Lennon s'écroula lorsqu'il a été assassiné. Et pour ceux qui aiment encore plus les anecdotes troublantes et un peu glauques, le film Rosemary's Baby a été réalisé par Roman Polanski, dont l'épouse, Sharon Tate, a été assassinée en 1969 par les disciples de la secte de Charles Manson. Ce même Charles Manson qui a déclaré que le signal pour ordonner ces meurtres lui a été envoyé... par les chansons du White Album des Beatles...
"Dear Prudence", The Beatles, 1968.

@TheRickWilson you mean "if", and even if it does, it will take generations for you to recover

Too on point not to share, “Aussie reply to Trump rant about NATO not being there for us.
Mate. You run a country with 600,000 homeless people sleeping on the street tonight. A country where 40% of adults can't cover a $400 emergency without borrowing money. A country where insulin costs more than a car payment and people are rationing it to survive. A country where medical debt is the number 1 cause of bankruptcy. A country where women are dying in hospital car parks because doctors are too scared of abortion laws to treat a miscarriage.
You lock up more of your own citizens than any nation on earth. More than China. More than Russia. More than North Korea. The land of the free has 2 million people in cages, and a quarter of them haven't even been convicted of anything. They're just too poor to make bail.
Your life expectancy is going backwards. You're the only developed nation where that's happening. Your infant mortality rate is worse than Cuba's. Your kids do active shooter drills between maths and English while you sell the gunmaker's stock to your mates.
Your minimum wage hasn't moved in 15 years. You've got teachers working 2 jobs and veterans sleeping under bridges and you just spent a trillion dollars flattening a country that didn't attack you.
And you’ve got a convicted felon, adjudicating raping, paedophile protecting, porn star shagging insurrectionist running the biggest dumpster fire war campaign since the Taliban thanked you very much for losing again.
And you're calling Greenland poorly run?
Greenland has universal healthcare. Free education. One of the lowest incarceration rates in the world. Nobody goes bankrupt there because they got sick. Nobody dies in a waiting room because their insurance said no.
"NATO wasn't there when we needed them." When exactly was that, champ? September 11? Because NATO invoked Article 5 for the first and only time in history FOR YOU. Soldiers from dozens of countries deployed, fought, bled, and died in Afghanistan FOR YOU. Australia wasn't even in NATO and we still showed up. For 20 years.
And you pulled out at 2am without telling anyone and left them to deal with the mess.
So maybe before you start calling other countries poorly run, have a look at your own backyard, you spray-tanned aluminium siding salesman. The only thing poorly run in this picture is your fucking mouth. Credit (borrowed from) Jim Scroggins - original author 📷 unknown”

I don’t think people realize how difficult it is to play the drums and sing like this at the same time.
The Band is very talented and this performance is a proof of that.
You cannot duplicate what this band did. There is a uniqueness to what was going on musically and lyrically.
The Band performing 'Up On Cripple Creek' live on The Ed Sullivan Show, November 2, 1969.

@Reil76 Canadians. We are the same from coast to coast to coast.
Provinces might differ but the people are the same. Don't matter what we believe in, who we love, the color of our skin. Canadians are the greatest people on earth.
Canadians who don't want to be Canadian can fuck off.
