Classic John Lennon Interview About The Beatles Animated
. When the Fab Four first came to the United States, the country was in the full throes of Beatlemania. Before stepping off of the airplane, John Lennon, Paul McCartney, George Harrison and Ringo Starr was major celebrities; this was evidenced by the huge crowd waiting to meet them at New York's John F Kennedy Airport on February 7, 1964. The band didn't have much downtime during their first trip to America, and when they did they spent a lot of it in their hotel room. John Lennon, however, decided he wanted to experience Manhattan. Of course, he couldn't just stroll out into the streets of the city. So, as he recalls in this interview that took place about a decade later, he snuck out of his hotel and stopped into a few bars and clubs. He tried to disguise himself, but he noted that no matter what he wore, "The nose was always the giveaway!" And while many adults of the era may have viewed the Beatles as a teen phase, we now know that that's not the case; more than a half century later, Paul and Ringo still probably couldn't walk down the streets of New York City without being mobbed.
