Helpful Score: 1
The last 7 chapters of this book make the whole interview worthwhile in which Lennon delves into the background of numerous Beatles' songs along with some of his solo work. He talks about what was going on at the time of each song, who was the primary author (usually himself or McCartney), and the inspiration for the lyrics and instrumentation. John is very forthcoming on which songs were Paul's, heaping high praise or harsh criticism on McCartney compositions, with equal parts praise and criticism of his own work. The interview - conducted in the days leading up to his murder - is summed up beautifully and prophetically with Lennon saying, "Something could change [...] Who knows what's going to happen?"
