J Lennon page 27 by ric gustafson
On May 26 1969, John and Yoko check into the Queen Elizabeth Hotel in Montreal Canada. While there, they wanted to stage a bed in. They wanted to be close to the New York Press Corps. John tried to get a visa so he could return to America. It was denied because of a 1968 drug possession. As he talks to reporters, John is working on a new song. It was named ' Give Peace A Chance'. It was released on July 4 1969.
On July 9 1969, a worried band finds out that John and Yoko are alright following an auto accident in the Scottish Highlands. On July 21, John begins recording a new song for the band. He rewrote the song so it could be included on the band's new album. It was originally written for Timothy Leary's Governorship campaign. The song was called ' Come Together'. The band named their new album ' Abbey Road'. The famous album cover was photographed outside the recording studio.
