Yoko's "Fly" - not yet the period of the beautiful songs... ;);)
This is the scan of the recent CD reissue, includes two bonus tracks at the end of LP 2, especially "Will you touch me" is a fabulous demo song with John Lennon playing guitar (one of his two Gibsons, most likely his J 200 model!) and guiding his wife for the singing line. Shame that this wasn't present on the original release, I used to have this LP in the early 70s, but I didn't keep it long, and maybe with this song included, I wouldn't have sold it. I was happy to re-get it back today on CD. I regret having given away the original gatefold copy, where also a poster and a sticker were included.
I'm virtually in debt to another blogger, Mr. Earl, whom I had a sympathic exchange of opinions with, on his blog, check this link:
I name Yoko Ono "the woman who killed the Beatles", after the title of a book published in Italy about 6 years ago (see foto below), which would definitely be interesting for all of you who can read Italian.

However, apart from my previous plans, this version of "Fly" comes from a CD, hence the high rate.
Talking to Mr. Earl (by the way, a Count?!?!), I mentioned Robert Wyatt's solo LP "The end of an ear", which I'm planning to post here soon, although it's an item that you can also find posted somewhere else in other blogs. It's an album that I always loved very very much, not made for everybody's ears, I must confess, but surely for crazy people like I am. Aren't you crazy as well?
Well, how come you're members of this blog then? LOL!!!
One last thing: Yoko made also a short film named "Fly", which I find really nice, so in the next days I'll see to make a package for you all who are interested ;-)
