Episode 102- Toronto 1969 Part 2: Sweet Toronto with Dave Thurmaier

We complete our 2-part look at the Toronto Rock and Roll Revival concert of September 1969 and the 'white-suited apostle' John Lennon's involvement in it with the highly flexible Plastic Ono Band. Following 'Revival '69', Antony and Dave Thurmaier turn their attention to a 1971 film that should be in every Lennon fan's video collection, namely D.A. Pennebaker's film 'Sweet Toronto'. Antony also reads some other articles and opinions about the event (Goldman despisers, please look away now) and gets Dave's take on a few Lennon questions that used to be regularly tackled on Glass Onion, involving reality and also a parallel universe where John is still alive (and well?...). As you listen, try to imagine an 80s and 90s where his presence is still active rather than being consumed by his legend, and Cobain gets or makes the call (Kurt plays The Beatles- see below) Enjoy!
