...that remixes Yoko Ono's music, Walking on Thin Ice, has topped the dance-club play chart [MUSIC, May 26]. I'm ashamed to admit that, like many other Beatles fans, I hated Yoko until the day John Lennon was shot. It was only after his tragic death, upon seeing the film Imagine, that I realized just how deep and genuine their love for each other was. I don't think the world knew how to embrace true soul mates. John's love for Yoko was naked and raw, and we turned away out of ignorance. We were unhappy that...

The song was called Walking on Thin Ice, and it was such an eerie and intense piece of avant-pop that her husband John Lennon was sure it would finally transform the public perception of Yoko from a shrieking fraud who broke up the Beatles to an important musician on the fringe of the mainstream.

W. Palmer, Lecturer on the Study of Religion and course head for the popular Religion 1528: “Globalization and Human Values...
CHARGED. PHIL SPECTOR, 62, legendary record producer turned virtual recluse; with first-degree murder in connection with the fatal shooting of B-movie actress Lana Clarkson; in Los Angeles. A close friend of John Lennon, Spector co-produced the Beatles' final album Let It Be. His revolutionary "wall of sound" recording techniques transformed the music industry, making possible such 1960s pop hits like the Ronettes' Be My Baby and the Righteous Brothers' You've Lost That Loving Feeling. Spector has been released on $1 million bail and will be represented by Robert Shapiro, the lawyer who played a key role...
