: Yoko Ono didn't break up the Beatles. She is not to blame for their break up.
: Paul was quoted in the 1970's as saying " It was envitable. All great bands must break up, we were just one of them."
: John had already drifted apart from Cynthia, and a divorce was upon them. I don't agree with the fact that he left Julian to fend for himself, but he did put in some effort to make contact.
: I want to send a shout out to all my crew at SUHI,(except Jesse cuz you're not in it if you read this)., and big-up to Brooklyn.
Yoko didn't single handedly break up the band. but it was relationship style with John. it was a major contribution in hammering the final nail on the coffin for the beatles death.. in the reunion attempt in 1975 when they were trying to put together another beatles album. the group was against lennon putting yoko in the tracks! have you heard the way she sings??? she whines in high pitches and barks. lenon was offended by the rest of the band opinon. saying it was to far out. so the attempt got shelfed.
George Martin was also affect by this, and this was on the "Let it be" session.
excerpt from Canadian Music Week, television broadcast, 1998): "John got very heavily into drugs and his relationship with Yoko was very disruptive with everybody because...I mean, at one point she was always at the sessions -- her very presence was disturbing. She wasn't even introduced to me until four weeks into this, you know. At one point she was ill and John insisted on bringing her bed into the studio so she could lie there ill and watch us make records, and that isn't the best atmosphere to make a record." And, "What upset me most of all, wasn't the fact that I was losing control, ..."
Im just focusing on the negative parts. just keep in mind that the Beatles good times out weighs there bad times..
