A DELAYED SCOOP. Ray Connelly says in his article that he knew that John Lennon had caused the breakup of the Beatles even though the breakup was attributed in the press to Paul McCartney’s actions. Connelly knew this at the time because of tape recorded interviews he had with Lennon. The article can be looked at as a scoop that is published forty years after the fact.

It seems like all four of them had gotten fed up and decided to quit around the same time. I watched Let It Be a couple of weeks ago and cringed at some of the icier moments. I think a lot of unfair blame was put on Yoko because they were already coming apart at the seams.
The interview
John Lennon did with Playboy is a fantastic read.
