CAPTION
John Lennon at the pre-opening party at Club Dell Aretusa for Apple Tailoring in the King's Road, Chelsea.
There were press photographers, journalists, lots of trendy fab gear people that usually attended those sort
of parties and seventeen year old, me.
John was in great spirits posing for promotional photographs in the restaurant's basement, singing a ditty, ?I?ll Apple you, if you'll Apple me?? accompanied by his (not yet publicly known) girlfriend, Yoko Ono.
Not wishing to be intrusive, I did not photograph John with Yoko.
So John asked me if I would take some photographs for him.
John and Yoko officially broke the news next day of their union.
