If Yoko Ono's name was not synonymous with the Beatles and John Lennon, woul!


Question: Yoko Ono is a Japanese-born musician and artist and will be 75 years old on February 18th. (Wow!)

According to biographical information published on the web, by the time she met John Lennon, she was already an established artist playing an active role in the world of music.

Thoughts?

According to biographical information published on the web, by the time she met John Lennon, she was already an established artist playing an active role in the world of music.

Thoughts?

Established in a few small circles, yes, but then again many artists in a similar position to Ono at the time have drifted into oblivion, so without Lennon she may well have experienced the same fate.

Have you ever actually seen Ono's stuff on exhibition? Very rarely have I seen anything, and even that's been part of programmes on John Lennon. I think that's quite telling.

I had never heard about her until I got into the Beatles.

probably not

She was perceptive and driven before taking up with John, I bet she'd have made some fame on her own.

She was somewhat known in her own right as an Avant Garde artist before she met John Lennon. She will forever be associated with the break up of the Beatles tho to be fair, after the death of Brian Epstein, things started to fall apart for them.

really i don't think she would have been known if not for lennon and her ties to the beatles...maybe more important, she might not even have been as important as she is now if not for her large role in breaking up the beatles and her repeated pleas to block parole to her husband's killer

I hope not. It's bad enough we know about her now. I can't stand to hear her "sing" if you can even call it that!

probably only in the Asian-American cultures. I.E. Japan, Korea, China, Philippians, and etc. later branching out to the European cultures after meeting John Lennon. I.E. London, Germany, Amsterdam, Sweden, and etc. to be later selling CD's and etc. in America and South America

Hardly, her music can cause bleeding of the ears and if it weren't for John Lennon she wouldn't even have had any albums released.

She's done alot of humanitarian work, she probably wouldn't be known but I'm glad she is.

And like a previous post said, she will be "forever associated with the breakup of the Beatles".

Paul McCartney stated that statement wasn't true because all The Beatles were so different by the time they broke up that it was bound to happen anyway.

I really doubt it. I always thought that was why she latched on to John Lennon.

of course not. She was an abstract artist who said that "if half the room hadn't left by the end of her performance, she hadn't done it right." This was a woman asking to be shunned and, even though in this day and age we welcome and make infamous travesties and horrors, back then, they would have completely ignored her. Then John Lennon met her and, despite his genious, was enthralled by this obscure woman and made her his entire life. And now Yoko Ono controls the entire Lennon name...unfortunately.

I don't think so..
and now the poor man is dead.. I never read about her, unless it is related to his memorial day or news about their son.
She has not done anything negative to me.. but somehow I am biased and don't like her, never considered her a true artist, but rather an opportunist.
Sorry... just my opinion.
