Thanks, annap, same back atcha!

Marion, LOL! The ONLY one I ever bought or have is the one that had just hit the stands the day Lennon was shot. I figured it was the last interview & I had to have it. My girlfriend and I were in such shock, we called our boss, told him our standard excuse, which he came up with, that our bras went on backwards and fit, and that we were going out to the ranch. We sat out there with the stereo cranked up and drank ourselves from silly to maudlin to outright, mean-Momma, bluesy, wailing at the wall grief. Every year on that day, we either get together or call each other to "touch base". It was one of those unbelievable once in a lifetime experiences that ya never forget.

My brother, the classical genius, is going to be up here in a few minutes. I'll ask him about the Moon lyrics.
