  • These were taken by John Lennon’s girlfriend May Pang at the Louis B.Meyer/Peter Lawford Santa Monica house Lennon was renting around March 1974.

    She later said of the events surrounding these photos:
    ‟It was during the Harry Nilsson sessions.He had popped in (the studio) the night before….The next day, Paul came over with Linda and kids in tow.Everybody’s just hanging out at the Santa Monica beach house.Everyone’s just talking, just relaxing.”

    ‟All of a sudden I looked up and said, ”Paul?‟ John turned around and said, ”Oh, hello, Paul.‟ It was like they’d seen each other just the night before.John had not seen him in a couple of years at that point.Then Paul’s heading to the drums; he just went to Ringo’s drum kit and started to jam.Stevie Wonder happened to drop by.Stevie’s on the electric piano, Linda’s on the Hammond B3….Everybody was just hanging out and jamming.”

  • There was an episode of SNL where Lorne Michael’s offered $100 for the Beatles to reunite on the show. Allegedly Paul and John were hanging out at John’s Dakota apartment watching and almost took him up on it.
