Transcript
00:00It was like a, you know, it wasn't like I want to be a photographer, it was just I noticed
00:13that there were six or seven photos of me from my christening to 18 really, till I was
00:22about 18. And I don't know, I just started taking photos. We were the biggest band in
00:37the land and we hung out a lot together. We really knew each other. You know, as I mentioned
00:44before, if we went on holiday, two of us would go on holiday together. And you know, we did
00:51everything together. Suddenly we could afford a good camera. That was the deal. And we all
01:03had cameras. And of course we went to Japan and we bought cameras. None of us might have
01:10been filmed by each other. These two boys pull out a lot of emotion because they're
01:18no longer with us. I love this one. It makes me laugh every time I see it. You know, we're
01:24in a hotel room, a lot of whiskey and coke going down here. And you know, that's Mal
01:30Evans. So that's a fun pic for me. And you know, that's a great moment of what you get
01:37up to in a hotel room. Paul's got, he loves the book. He said it's the best book he ever saw.
01:53I have a great thought and a great plan that we should get. Paul should look into his photos
01:59because I've got plenty more. And Olivia should look at George's photos and Yoko should dig out
02:05John's photos. And we could put, you know, another book together of who took who. And like this,
02:14this is all for charity. This is nothing. But you know, I'm getting it. It goes into the Lotus Foundation.
