Birth of the Beatles Part 2 of 2 (Glass Onion: On John Lennon podcast Episode 112) Glass Onion: On John Lennon 2025-08-06 | We complete our look at ‘Birth of the Beatles’, the 1979 biopic which holds a unique place as the only one of its kind made while all 4 Beatles were still alive. The timeline goes somewhat awry but we go from the boys having departed Hamburg in late-1960 to the tragic death of one of their band members and then the arrival in the story of their well-groomed, well-spoken but also fragile guardian angel. From there, destiny takes its course…Before this, Antony offers a short item on ‘The John Lennon Letters’ print/audio book, a fine entry in the canon of Lennon/Beatles books that offers us personal and valuable insights into the eternal enigma that was and is John Lennon. The voice of Christopher Eccleston, who portrayed John in the TV film ‘Lennon Naked’, can be heard reading some of the lettersEnjoy!

Birth of the Beatles Part 1 of 2 (Glass Onion: On John Lennon podcast Episode 111) Glass Onion: On John Lennon 2025-07-17 | Following our last exploration of a biopic of dubious quality, Antony flies solo this time to explore another one which, despite having some sense of time and place, is also somewhat lacking and to some extent unintentionally comedic.‘Birth of the Beatles’, which came out in 1979, will always hold a unique place as the only Beatles biopic made while John Lennon was still alive. Considering that he’d reacted negatively to Cynthia’s apparent rewriting of history in her book ‘A Twist of Lennon’ in 1978, it’s quite something to ponder what he might have thought of this Dick Clark-produced TV film.Preceding this, Antony offers a guitar lesson for the Bob Dylan song ‘Masters of War’ and then the song that it inspired (musically at least)- John Lennon’s ‘Working Class Hero. There are also pre-outro Easter Eggs to be found in this episode…Enjoy!

John & Yoko: A Love Story and more… Part 2 of 2 (Glass Onion: On John Lennon podcast Episode 110) Glass Onion: On John Lennon 2025-05-27 | David ‘Ghosty’ Wills joins Antony Rotunno once again to wrap up their dissection of ‘John & Yoko: A Love Story’, and there is also some discussion of two other presentations from 1985.‘John Lennon: A Journey In The Life’ is a ‘cheap and cheerful’ trawl through the Lennon story, with another Liverpudlian Bernard Hill portraying our hero in John’s own words, and ‘John Lennon Remembered’ is a short documentary featuring two of the other ‘frontline Beatles’ (sorry Ringo) plus other talking heads who knew Lennon at different stages of his life.Ghosty will be back later in the year for another documentary review, and the next episode will be a review of another slightly hilarious Beatles biopic.Enjoy!

We discuss some of the better scenes and also the unintentional comedy and ‘TV movie tropes’ of others. We cover about two thirds of the film here, and next time round we’ll complete our review and also look at a couple of other presentations from the same year.The conversation is preceded by Antony’s thoughts on two recent John & Yoko documentaries, namely ‘Daytime Revolution’ and ‘One To One: John & Yoko’Enjoy!

The Gospel According To John Lennon Part 4 of 4 (Glass Onion: On John Lennon podcast Episode 108) Glass Onion: On John Lennon 2025-03-13 | Another podcast journey comes to an end as we conclude our look at John Lennon (and The Beatles’) religious, spiritual and philosophical journey by use of Steve Turner’s excellent book ‘The Gospel According To The Beatles’After a brief recap of the previous episodes, Part 4 picks up from the formation of Apple in 1967, our four favourite rock gods soon discovering that utopian ideals, while often a good thing for the world, usually run into problems when they rub up against harsh reality. From there we cover the break-up of the Beatles, John’s psychic solo adventures (therapy, zen, astrology, magic) and an encounter that Steve Turner had with John & Yoko in 1971.We hope you’ve enjoyed this alternative look at the many changes that John and his bandmates went through in those crazy and remarkable years up to 1980, when one quarter of the famous foursome was gunned down by an individual who was apparently grappling with the forces of light and darkness in his head, even possibly praying to Satan himself.Like everything else, an exploration of the world just beyond visible light can be used for good or bad. If nothing else John Lennon was mostly striving, through various means, to improve his life and make himself a better person, which is something we can all aspire to.See you soon for our next podcast adventureFeedback to glassonionpod@yahoo.comSupport the show atpaypal.com/paypalme/antonyrotunnoORbuymeacoffee.com/antonyrotunnoFacebook pagefacebook.com/glassonionjlpodTwitter handletwitter.com/OnionLennonAntony's website (music, podcasts, blog, life coaching) antonyrotunno.comAntony's 'Life And Life Only' podcast (on Psychology and Alternative media)lifeandlifeonly.podbean.comSteve Turner’s bookgoodreads.com/book/show/22515.The_Gospel_According_to_the_Beatles?ac=1&from_search=true&qid=q7FtACTtFS&rank=1episode linksJohn, Paul and Apple (New York 1968)youtube.com/watch?v=lC5bUE2d_c0youtube.com/watch?v=fmBFFIwrttkIt’s all going wrong at Rutle Corps!youtube.com/watch?v=S8ifa3wqqDEWhat is Primal Therapy?verywellmind.com/what-is-primal-therapy-5211136Zenen.wikipedia.org/wiki/ZenAlan Watts on the Zen gameyoutube.com/watch?v=UP87pQ3Yb0cHow to access your Higher Selfscottjeffrey.com/higher-self-meaningJohn Lennon: Knocking on Dylan's Dooryoutube.com/watch?v=OVI7fwfwrzk‘The Art & Music of John Lennon’ by Peter Doggettgoodreads.com/book/show/798473.The_Art_And_Music_Of_John_Lennon
The Gospel According To John Lennon Part 3 of 4 (Glass Onion: On John Lennon podcast Episode 107) Glass Onion: On John Lennon 2025-02-14 | Continuing our lengthy exploration of John Lennon’s religious, spiritual and philosophical journey by use of Steve Turner’s excellent book ‘The Gospel According To The Beatles’, Part 3 covers some fascinating chapters spanning the years 1964 to 1968 in the book’s rough chronology.John starts to consider the limitations of fame, is influenced by Bob Dylan and starts to finally put some of the spirit of his books into his song lyrics. The lads are ‘turned on’ by Dylan and take a somewhat logical trajectory through pot, LSD and meditation, always looking for some kind of answer and meaning.The concept of ‘love’ is changing in society at this time, and it seems that more and more people are trying to find God on their travels, usually without entering a church. The figure of Jesus Christ continues to linger in John’s life in this period, culminating in one of his most offbeat revelations in May 1968 after returning from their meditation sojourn in India.Tune in for Part 4 next monthEnjoy!Feedback to glassonionpod@yahoo.comSupport the show atpaypal.com/paypalme/antonyrotunnoORbuymeacoffee.com/antonyrotunnoFacebook pagefacebook.com/glassonionjlpodTwitter handletwitter.com/OnionLennonAntony's website (music, podcasts, blog, life coaching) antonyrotunno.comAntony's 'Life And Life Only' podcast (on Psychology and Alternative media)lifeandlifeonly.podbean.comJon Stewart’s book ‘Dylan, Lennon, Marx & God’goodreads.com/book/show/59593530-dylan-lennon-marx-and-godSteve Turner’s ‘A Hard Day’s Write’ bookgoodreads.com/book/show/35666.A_Hard_Day_s_Writeepisode linksJohn and George discuss meditation on the David Frost Show in 1967 (parts 1 & 2)youtube.com/watch?v=GpYg2H34piwyoutube.com/watch?v=GXfkdLZLqXgAll You Need Is Love in colour!

The Gospel According To John Lennon Part 2 of 4 (Glass Onion: On John Lennon podcast Episode 106) Glass Onion: On John Lennon 2025-01-07 | We kick off 2025 with the continuation of our lengthy exploration of John Lennon’s religious, spiritual and philosophical journey.Part 2 starts with more of John and the Beatles’ general beliefs about the world before starting a chronology of the Beatle years from the particular perspective of Steve Turner’s book ‘The Gospel According To The Beatles’We go back to John’s Sunday School grounding and his always ambivalent attitude to Jesus Christ and the religion he spawned, through the school years, his ‘religious’ (so to speak) devotion to rock and roll, Stu and Astrid, Hamburg, existentialism and finally the freedom-loving philosophy and behaviour of the Beatlemania-era foursome in 1963 and 64.Ref- the intro clips come from John Lennon’s Playboy interviews shortly before his death in 1980.

The Gospel According To John Lennon Part 1 of 4 (Glass Onion: On John Lennon podcast Episode 105) Glass Onion: On John Lennon 2024-12-16 | We end Glass Onion’s 6th year with the start of another multi-part series, the first 4-parter in the history of the podcast.Using (mostly) the John Lennon parts from Steve Turner’s excellent 2006 book ‘The Gospel According To The Beatles’, we trace our hero’s religious, spiritual and philosophical journey through its many twists and turns in his intense four-decade ride through life. The host Antony Rotunno also comments on his own journey in these areas, some of which overlaps with that of John Lennon and The Beatles.Part 1 looks at the first two chapters of Steve’s book, focusing a lot on the ‘Bigger Than Jesus’ controversy of 1966. This is preceded by an attempt to lay some groundwork for this series by defining ‘religion’ and ‘spirituality’ and pondering what the differences (if any) between them are.There are multiple audio clips at the start to help us along, and you will find many useful web links in the show notes belowEnjoy! And see you in January 2025 for part 2.

John Lennon The Actor Part 2 of 2 (Glass Onion: On John Lennon podcast Episode 104) Glass Onion: On John Lennon 2024-11-28 | We conclude our look at John Lennon as an actor, starting from 1965’s ‘Help!’ and with particular emphasis on what was arguably his only ‘serious’ role, albeit in an anti-war satire ‘How I Won The War’. He also voices a famously sprawling Beatles TV film about a bus, and there’s a film cameo and brief comedy sketch in amongst it all as well.Antony Rotunno is joined once again by professional actor Ross Marshall, and there are multiple audio clips to complement the conversation.

John Lennon at Toronto 1969 Part 2: Sweet Toronto (Glass Onion: On John Lennon podcast Ep 102) Glass Onion: On John Lennon 2024-09-18 | We complete our 2-part look at the Toronto Rock and Roll Revival concert of September 1969 and the ‘white-suited apostle’ John Lennon’s involvement in it with the highly flexible Plastic Ono Band. Following ‘Revival ‘69’, Antony Rotunno and Dave Thurmaier turn their attention to a 1971 film that should be in every Lennon fan’s video collection, namely D.A. Pennebaker’s film ‘Sweet Toronto’.Antony also reads some other articles and opinions about the event (Goldman despisers, please look away now) and gets Dave’s take on a few Lennon questions that used to be regularly tackled on Glass Onion, involving reality and also a parallel universe where John is still alive (and well?...). As you listen, try to imagine an 80s and 90s where his presence is still active rather than being consumed by his legend, and Cobain gets or makes the call (Kurt plays The Beatles- see below)Enjoy!

Revolution 9 Revisited (Glass Onion: On John Lennon podcast bonus episode #14) Glass Onion: On John Lennon 2024-06-28 | PLEASE NOTE- THIS VERSION FOR YOU TUBE CONTAINS A FEW MINOR CUTS. IF YOU WANT THE FULL VERSION, PLEASE LISTEN HERE:glassoniononjohnlennon.comOver 4 years on from our original episode about ‘Revolution 9’ (episode 25, in the show notes), we return to the topic with an audio version (including multiple sound clips) of a discussion that originally went out on video on Matt Williamson’s excellent you tube channel ‘Pop Goes The 60s’ back in March. We discuss our origin stories with the track, it’s conception and recording, some of the ‘musique concrete’ works that influenced it, the other Beatles’ reaction to it and a few other things.This is preceded by Antony’s thoughts on the new version of the ‘Let It Be’ film and some discussion/defence of Albert Goldman from a Mojo magazine special about John Lennon.There are multiple links below to some interesting work, including quite a few avant-garde pieces that may not seem accessible but do have some rewards to be found if the mood is right, rather like ‘Revolution 9’ itself.Enjoy!!

THE FULL VERSION CAN BE LISTENED TO HERE:glassoniononjohnlennon.com/episode-100b-john-lennon-in-the-1960s-part-2-of-2And so we complete the milestone! Scott Phipps once again joins Antony to complete their whistle-stop, greatest hits tour through John Lennon and the 1960s. Scott gives us a brief sketch of each year through a few news events (some extremely random but no less interesting) before our two intrepid heroes each pick a Beatles/Lennon talking point, this time covering the years 1965 to 1969.Thanks once more to all those who’ve been on the Glass Onion journey. My heart has truly been touched by the interest shown in what has been a 5-and-a-half-year odyssey exploring the utterly unique creature that was and is John Lennon. He has been gone from this earth for over 43 years now, but – forgive the cliché – the music lives on, and with modern technology allowing us to access untold amounts of interviews, alternate takes, documentaries and the like, he’s arguably never been more alive than right now.Glass Onion: On John Lennon will continue, and the next couple of episodes are already well into the planning stage.For now, enjoy!!

John Lennon In The 1960s Part 1 of 2 (Glass Onion: On John Lennon podcast Episode 100a) Glass Onion: On John Lennon 2024-05-12 | What better way to mark Glass Onion’s century than with a traditional multi-parter? In the first of two shows to celebrate our milestone, Antony is joined again by Scott Phipps to take a whistle-stop, greatest hits tour through John Lennon and the decade that made him and which he helped propel into history. Scott puts on his ‘Rainbow Valley’ trousers (see show notes) to sketch out each year for us before we each pick a Beatles/Lennon talking point for discussion. This time we tackle 1960 to 1964 as our hero goes from pure rocker to public figure and part of a national obsession. He also starts to wonder if songwriting could be more than ‘I love you and you love me’.Thanks to all those who’ve been on the Glass Onion journey, especially those who’ve consumed every episode and left inspiring and generous feedbackEnjoy!!Feedback to glassonionpod@yahoo.com Support the show atpaypal.com/paypalme/antonyrotunnoORbuymeacoffee.com/antonyrotunno Facebook page- facebook.com/glassonionjlpod Twitter handle twitter.com/OnionLennon Antony's website (music, podcasts, blog, lifecoaching) antonyrotunno.com Antony's 'Life And Life Only' podcast (on Psychology and Alternative media) lifeandlifeonly.podbean.comScott's Podcasts (Rainbow Valley, Reel Britannia, The Stinking Pause)directory.libsyn.com/shows/view/id/reelbritanniadirectory.libsyn.com/shows/view/id/stinkingpausedirectory.libsyn.com/shows/view/id/rainbowvalleyepisode linksThe Beatles at the Star Club 1962 (cleaned-up, stereo)youtube.com/watch?v=l6PdWt4I7OkStuart Sutcliffe biographical informationen.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stuart_SutcliffeLennon’s first Lost Weekend (‘The Beatles Naked’ podcast)https://player.fm/series/the-beatles-naked/episode-19-hamburg-spring-62-lennons-original-lost-weekendThe Beatles at the Cavern 1962 (colorised)youtube.com/watch?v=LfgvoNvjRFYThe Hours and Times (recommended film)en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Hours_and_TimesJohn talks about ‘In His Own Write’youtube.com/watch?v=wxfjW6F9R6MAntony discusses ‘A Hard Day’s Night’ film on the ‘Classic Film Jerks’ podcasthttps://pod.link/488613190/episode/430c4f82adc8ddb2495be860d112fbb6Scott discusses ‘The Big Freeze’ 1962-63directory.libsyn.com/episode/index/show/rainbowvalley/id/24520524

Gimme Some More Truth- Antony Rotunno (Glass Onion: On John Lennon podcast Episode 99) Glass Onion: On John Lennon 2024-02-15 | In the last episode before we notch up our century, Antony flies solo to muse on and discuss various items of Lennon interest. In order, these are the 40th anniversary of the ‘Milk And Honey’ album, the cancelling and virtues of the Lennon-penned Beatles song ‘Run For Your Life’, May Pang’s 2022 documentary ‘The Lost Weekend: A Love Story’, the work of Mike Williams and his theory on the impossibility of the recording of ‘Rubber Soul’ (Antony gets tied in knots at this point negotiating his position in the middle ground of the mainstream-conspiracy continuum!), and an extended look at the 2000 ‘Gimme Some Truth’ documentary.Finally there’s a look at the recent Apple TV documentary ‘John Lennon: Murder Without A Trial’ and David Whelan’s new book ‘Mind Games: The Assassination of John Lennon’, both of which naturally focus on the grisly events of December 8th 1980.There are multiple audio clips as ever and what is probably a record number of links in the show notes.Episode 100 will appear in MarchEnjoy!

Antony explores further his origin story with John Lennon and the ongoing relationship and fascination with the subject of our show (yes, it’s our show). You will also hear some writing that didn’t quite culminate in a book this year, and there’s some discussion of childhood, both Antony’s and John’s, and the glorification of it.

John Lennon In 1967 Part 2 of 2 w/Antony Rotunno & Tony Green (Glass Onion: On John Lennon Ep 97) Glass Onion: On John Lennon 2023-12-06 | We conclude our 1967 odyssey by picking up from mid-June and detailing all the main Lennon and Beatles events for the rest of 1967. The Beatles are linked by satellite to hundreds of millions, they almost buy a Greek island, the Maharishi enters their lives and they make their own TV special just in time for it to be shown in black-and-white among the traisditonal wholesome Yuletide entertainment. In between all this, the rather sad life of Brian Epstein comes to an end, John Lennon’s first solo film project is unleashed onto the world, and a few more classic Beatlesongs are created.We hope this deep dive into another incredible year for the Fabs and the world has pleased you. The hippy dream of course didn’t quite work but there was truly something in the air in ’67 and a communal spirit amidst the turmoil of the Vietnam War and the general madness of a crazy world.

The Fabs start off by releasing what could be their greatest single ever and then turn their full attention to creating what is surely at least their most famous album, Sgt Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band. We cover the recording, album cover, launch party, release and legacy of ‘Pepper’, as well as some of the other songs recorded around the same time and used for other singles and projects. In amongst all this, John Lennon trips out in public at one of the premier British psychedelic events of the hippie era…Enjoy!

1967 in review with Antony Rotunno & Tony Green (Glass Onion: On John Lennon podcast Episode 95) Glass Onion: On John Lennon 2023-10-16 | 1967 is a year that has gone into legend for various reasons. Was it the year of peace and love? Was there any real love in it at all? Or was it just like any other year, a heady mix of everything good and bad about the human race and society?Before looking at what was undoubtedly a ground-breaking and life-changing year for John Lennon and The Beatles, myself and my guest, writer Tony Green, have a look at the year of 1967 out there in the big, bad world. As is traditional in this series, we discuss some key events of the year, births and deaths, films and non-Beatles singles and albumsEnjoy!

Particular focus is put on the Pete Best issue and the death of Stuart Sutcliffe, not to mention John Lennon’s contentious and highly unique reaction to that death.Every year in the Beatles story from around 1960 was packed with activity and full of psychodrama, and 1962 is no exception.

1962 in review with Antony Rotunno & David Ghosty Wills (Glass Onion: On John Lennon Episode 90) Glass Onion: On John Lennon 2023-06-24 | Our latest Lennon odyssey starts with a review of the events of 1962, a tangential conversation in which Antony and guest David ‘Ghosty’ Wills freewheel into all kinds of other territory before setting the listeners up with some pre-1962 context on the Beatles’ progress on their own journey to musical and cultural world domination.1962 was marked by a massive historical event, the Cuban Missile Crisis, which happened in the same year as the first appearances in the world of the Beatles’ music and a certain famous undercover spy known to absolutely everyone he meets, and as we often do in this series, we talk about the relative importance of these events in the grand sweep of historyEnjoy!Feedback to glassonionpod@yahoo.comSupport the show at paypal.com/paypalme/antonyrotunnoORbuymeacoffee.com/antonyrotunnoFacebook page- facebook.com/glassonionjlpodTwitter handle twitter.com/OnionLennonAntony's website (music, podcasts, blog, life coaching) antonyrotunno.comAntony's 'Life And Life Only' podcast (on Psychology) lifeandlifeonly.podbean.com episode linksVasily saves the world!youtube.com/watch?v=YJSrp_P6BjoOperation Northwoods (please read)allthatsinteresting.com/operation-northwoods1962 in all its gloryen.wikipedia.org/wiki/1962Fred Seaman vs Elliot Mintz (and Geraldo)youtube.com/watch?v=L6vsM_s8T0UOther interviews with Lennon insidersyoutube.com/watch?v=1OZnsKtLKiQyoutube.com/watch?v=zwaQUwIsSeILenny Bruce at Berkeleyyoutube.com/watch?v=Klrml3tI29ETeach Yourself Paul McCartney (Stevie Riks)youtube.com/watch?v=_y5n1iuH2H4

All We Are Saying- The John Lennon 1980 Playboy Interviews Part 1 of 3 (Glass Onion podcast Ep 87) Glass Onion: On John Lennon 2023-03-18 | John Lennon’s series of interviews for Playboy magazine in September, which also included Yoko Ono, are not only a fascinating and multi-layered study of a highly eccentric artist but also form an integral part of the official narrative of John and Yoko’s relationship in 1980 before his death and of the genesis of the songs for their joint album ‘Double Fantasy’.This episode is a first of a 2-parter that picks out some interesting extracts from the book ‘All We Are Saying’, based on the transcripts of the interviews.A lot of the narrative promoted by John & Yoko in these interviews has been reasonably debunked, including the obvious and provable point that John's songs for 'Double Fantasy' were worked on for years rather than being the product of pure inspiration. The overall contention over what the truth is has helped form the Coleman-Goldman continuum that has been a almost frequent topic of study on this podcastBefore the main topic, there is also a recommendation and critique of Madeline Bocaro’s epic new 500-page book on Yoko Ono, whose narrative fits neatly with the interviews being studied in this episode.There are numerous audio clips to complement the conversation, including some of John from the interviews themselves.Enjoy!Feedback and voluntary Paypal donations to glassonionpod@yahoo.comORSupport the show at buymeacoffee.com/antonyrotunnoFacebook page- facebook.com/glassonionjlpodTwitter handle twitter.com/OnionLennonAntony's website (music, podcasts, blog, life coaching) antonyrotunno.comAntony's 'Life And Life Only' podcast (on Psychology) lifeandlifeonly.podbean.comAntony on Luke’s English Podcast talking about meditationteacherluke.co.uk/2022/03/16episode linksThe Playboy Interviews (more than 3 hours of audio clips)youtube.com/watch?v=PRDfBGagFkUlink to Madeline Bocaro’s new book on Yoko Onomadelinex.com/2021/12/19/my-new-bookMadeline and Dan Richter on the ‘Things We Said Today’ podcastyoutube.com/watch?v=177VFkC1oC4‘John Lennon’s Original Lost Weekend’ (episode of ‘The Beatles Naked’)https://player.fm/series/the-beatles-naked/episode-19-hamburg-spring-62-lennons-original-lost-weekendDouble Fantasy Revisited (‘Something About The Beatles’ podcast)somethingaboutthebeatles.com/243-double-fantasy-revisited-part-onesomethingaboutthebeatles.com/244-double-fantasy-revisited-part-twoKirby Ferguson’s ‘Everything Is A Remix’ website, documentary and TED talkeverythingisaremix.infoyoutube.com/watch?v=nJPERZDfyWcted.com/talks/kirby_ferguson_embrace_the_remixHuxley vs Orwell (dystopia and modern reality)allthatsinteresting.com/amusing-ourselves-to-death-comic‘Amusing Ourselves To Death’ audiobookyoutube.com/watch?v=pX2_8NteDrQ‘Illusions: The Adventures of a Reluctant Messiah’ by Richard Bach audiobookyoutube.com/watch?v=QI1yf916CJQ

John Lennon Rock And Roll (1975) album review- Sam Whiles & Antony Rotunno Glass Onion: On John Lennon 2022-05-03 | Sam of the 'Paul or Nothing' podcast guest hosts Antony's 'Glass Onion: On John Lennon' podcast in the first of two 2021 Lennon-McCartney covers swapcasts.

1969 in review with Antony Rotunno & Scott Phipps (Glass Onion: On John Lennon podcast Episode 75) Glass Onion: On John Lennon 2022-01-26 | 1969 was, even by the standards of the tumultuous decade of the 60s, a remarkably eventful year both for John Lennon and the world at large. Scott Phipps makes a welcome return to the podcast for a 2-parter about John in this year. I should come clean and say that there is very little John Lennon/Beatles in this part, so lets' call it a build-up to the main event. There’s plenty of gold here as we look at the events, births & deaths, films and non-Lennon music of this remarkable 12 monthsEnjoy!Feedback and voluntary Paypal donations to glassonionpod@yahoo.comORSupport the show atwww.buymeacoffee.com/antonyrotunnoFacebook page-www.facebook.com/glassonionjlpodTwitter handletwitter.com/OnionLennonAntony's website (music, podcasts, blog, life coaching)www.antonyrotunno.comAntony's 'Life And Life Only' podcastwww.lifeandlifeonly.podbean.comScott’s podcast linksrainbowvalley.libsyn.com/podcastdirectory.libsyn.com/shows/view/id/reelbritanniadirectory.libsyn.com/shows/view/id/stinkingpauseepisode linksThe Rock ‘n’ Roll Years: 1969youtube.com/watch?v=sPvDKci1yIkScott’s ‘Rainbow Valley’ episode on Altamontrainbowvalley.libsyn.com/episode-012-the-rolling-stones-at-altamontEasy Rider ‘we blew it’ sceneyoutube.com/watch?v=lqkYf3pOnow‘The Stones in Hyde Park’ articleudiscovermusic.com/stories/5-25-pm-hyde-park-5-july-1969-a-moment-that-defined-a-band
