John Lennon - The Last Interview

John Lennon’s final interview took place on December 8, 1980, just a few hours before his tragic murder. He and Yoko were interviewed by Dave Sholin and Laurie Kaye, with Ron Hummel and Bert Keane also part of the team. At that time, John had just wrapped up a photo shoot with Annie Leibovitz for Rolling Stone magazine.

In this interview, John reflects on raising Sean, discusses the new album he was working on after a five-year break, talks about the time he spent apart from Yoko, shares how they met in 1966, and dives into their love and peace campaign, among other topics.
