and can't get over how two absolute giants of rock could be so much in sync. John was a rocker at heart, and Chuck was clearly one of his great influences.

I know a lot of folks slam Yoko in this video and in so many other situations. Just take a look at John Lennon videos from 1966-1968 and then contrast him after that (when he hooked up with Yoko). Yoko made John come alive again, and you can visibly and audibly see the difference in John after he and Yoko became a couple. She gets a lot of criticism from people, but she was a famous artist in her own right, well before John. And I honestly think she transformed John.

Yoko and John: love you both!

I met her once at an art gallery show in the 90s.
