Lost Lennon Interviews Book

Geoffrey Giuliano has made a career of writing dubious books about the Beatles. He strikes up a friendship with, say, McCartney's ex-Wings sidekick Denny Laine, and suddenly there's a lot of bitter material for a lurid look at the rich and famous. Geoffrey's books are littered with factual errors, and he's the kind of guy who loves to place himself in the narrative of his books in any way possible. Soon we'll have an account of the time Giuliano bumped into the back of Ringo's automobile and got a chance to talk to his chauffeur. Unfortunately, his books have some exclusive axe-grinding, but it seems a shame to support his particular brand of self-promoting hack job. The interviews in this book weren't actually lost, you understand, it just took this enterprising fellow to cull them all together, with a few new interviews of his own thrown in. If you'd like to see this collection of Lennon and Lennon-related interviews and press conferences, try to find this book at a library. Or better yet, seek out the primary sources. That goes for any of his books. And stay away from Giuliano's "biographies," unless you must know Denny Laine's wife's favorite hairdresser.
