John Lennon & Yoko Ono
The Man, The Memory Vol. 1
Black Cat BC 015


Broadcast December 14, 1980 on WXLO FM New York City. Contains excerpts from John's last interview, recorded on on December 8, 1980 for the RKO radio network.
Originally planned as a Valentine's Day special, the tapes received top priority after the news had reached the West Coast that fateful evening. As shocked as the rest of us were how must they have felt after spending the afternoon with him and giving John and Yoko a lift in their limousine to the Record Plant East before catching their flight to San Francisco a mere hours before (and seeing the killer on their way out to boot).
