NO BED FOR BEATLE JOHN
|
BEATLE, JOHN LENNON,
|
LOST HIS HOSPITAL BED YESTERDAY, TO A PATIENT
|
|
IT HAPPENED AT QUEEN CHARLOTTE'S HOSPITAL, LONDON
|
WHERE JOHN WAS KEEPING VIGIL IN THE ROOM
|
WHERE HIS GIRLFRIEND YOKO ONO,
|
IS BEING KEPT UNDER OBSERVATION
|
WHEN HE REALISED HIS BED WAS NEEDED FOR AN URGENT CASE,
|
JOHN SENT OUT FOR A SLEEPING BAG,
|
AND LAST NIGHT
|
HE WAS ONCE MORE HAPPILY KIPPED DOWN, ALONGSIDE YOKO,
|
IN THE SLEEPING BAG.
|
|
YOKO, WHO EXPECTS A BABY NEXT FEBRUARY
|
WILL REMAIN IN THE HOSPITAL FOR ANOTHER FEW DAYS
|
A BEATLES SPOKESMAN SAID
|
"THERE IS A GOOD CHANCE FOR THE BABY'S SURVIVAL."
|
|
THE BEATLES WIN BATTLE OF THE NUDE LP
|
THE BEATLES HAVE WON THEIR FIGHT TO PUT
|
OUT AN LP RECORD WITH A SLEEVE SHOWING
|
JOHN LENNON AND YOKO ONO IN NUDE
|
|
EMI THE WORLD'S BIGGEST RECORDING COMPANY
|
WHOSE ARTISTS INCLUDE THE BEATLES
|
REFUSED TO HANDLE THE LP CALLED TWO VIRGINS BECAUSE OF THE SLEEVE.
|
SO DID THE GROUP'S AMERICAN OUTLET, CAPITOL RECORDS
|
|
BUT THE RECORD WITH ITS CONTROVERSIAL SLEEVE
|
WILL BE RELEASED IN BOTH COUNTRIES NEXT MONTH
|
AN OFFICIAL OF THE BEATLES APPLE COMPANY SAID LAST NIGHT
|
THE SLEEVE HAS NOT YET BEEN CENSORED OR ALTERED IN ANY WAY
|
WE'RE PLEASED IT HAS BEEN DISTRIBUTED IT MAY BE THAT SOME RECORD SHOPS MAY STILL
|
REFUSE TO HANDLE IT.
