I think the recent OTE shows have been marvelous - sort of slowly, organically turning into something it wasn't - while retaining some of what it was. I hope it keeps on going, even if it's changing.

John said Yoko played an arrangement based on the chords on the piano for him, so it is a variation

if anyone knows of any recorded interview with John that states the Moonlight Sonata/Because thing let me know - I don't mean in print, I mean an audio recording
  7:26pm

Hmmmm.. possibly, the '80 Playboy interview... If memory serves, he covers alot of Beatle songs in that interview
Avatar Swag For Life Member 7:30pm
Rich in Washington:

I'm still trying to find a higher quality version of the interview where he explains Revolution #9. He talks about tape loops and it's really meta-heavy content-wise as a sample source.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 7:31pm
Revolution Rabbit Nov63:

- yeah, John went over several songs one by one in those - so maybe. & they were available for Download here: www1.rollingstone.com... ...buuut not anymore...

Might I suggest the great 'guest-DJ' set he did in 1974 on WNEW.. he was quite good at figuring out where certain 'riffs' came from..plus, he was funny
Avatar Swag For Life Member 7:34pm
Rich in Washington:

I got mine from a cassette about hidden messages in rock music but the quality isn't too good. To make matters worse, I digitized it in the late 90s, not really knowing what I was doing then, so it's less than stellar, digitally.
