Lennon looks like: It's 2AM, the prom is over, and after sitting alone for 6 hours, he's just figured out his date left long ago with somebody else....
Sir George : "Hmm...play it just ONE more time, won't you Paul?"
Paul: I still think this bass feels so bloomin' backwards.......
The photographer: "I am going to marry the bass player...."
The developer: "When did Lennon get a new bassist?..."
Staff archivist: "Hmm, not good for PR; but file it in the drawer for "mood pieces," it'll go perfect in a artsy collector's volume...."
EMI accountant: "Can't they switch to Polaroids? Kodak stock is expensive and we already have rolls and rolls of undeveloped
Beatles on their five minute break............"
Another staff accountant: "Well, they're developing as fast as they can!"
EMI accountant: "The rolls?"
A smart *ssed-insider: "Yes, the roles of the Beatles are being carefully developed."
Staff accountant: "Yes, I heard Paul got a new Rolls."
Smartt *ss know-it-all: "A Role."
EMI accountant: "Payroll?"
EMI president: "Parole if you're not careful. Everyone back to work, please."
"Yes Mr.?-------?"
3000 miles away, in Mahattan:
Head of photographic lay-out department, Rolling Stone magazine: "What the hell? This is a photograph ABOUT A F*****'
MICROPHONE BOOM STAND! I don't want a photo about a mike stand! It's not an article about a microphone! It's supposed to be an intimate portrait of the ******-******' Beatles! Get EMI on the phone and have that Neil Aspinall explain the meaning of this useless waste of monochrome to me right now! This is New York, darn it!
Robert Mapplethorpe: It's OK for light and shadow, but doesn't go nearly far enough in the composition department.
Andy Warhol: You said "Campbell" was in it, where's the soup? I don't understand? (*sniff)
Picasso: "Give me a pencil. I can do it better."
Neil Aspinall:"They'll love this at the RS. Avant garde, nihilistic, and, altogether as diffuse as their Beach Boy's spread last month. Did you see that one? Wilson is losing it, didn't it appear? Funny how we don't corespond with them; we stay in touch by reading each other's press......"
Dezo Hoffman:"They wished I had shot that.."
Dustin Hoffman: "You must be thinking of Dezo. I didn't take that one, but I can act like I did....."
Kodak accounting secretary: "EMI is behind 60 days on their film purchases. It's not LIKE they don't have the money. Whose our accounts recievable lawyer--isn't it that man Eastman?"
Another Kodak accounting secretary: "You mean, Clint Eastman?"
"You mean, "wood?"
"Oh, he might."
Huh?
A single, solitary picture. Worth a thousand words. Start counting.
OK, OK, only 300. I'm on a word diet. 1500 a day. It's so I can still fit into my threads.
;D
