Giuliano may be a bit eccentric, but he's written some of the best books
about the Beatles. His recent one about Lennon's final years is excellent.

>His recent one about Lennon's final years is excellent.
it is a book roundly decried by all critics, pro *and* anti yoko alike.
now chewwy, please tell us who played drums on "nowhere man".
Gawd, I thought I had ALL your screen names kill-filed!
The statement above proves you have no purpose here except to inflame
the group. Perhaps an enema would best suit your condition, because
my friend (and I use the term sarcastically) you are most certainly
full of it.
Change "EYE" with "i" to reply
LOFL, John.
Yeah, GG gets the "Filthiest Snake Oil Salesman" in Beatledom.
Oh, and when I was working on my laptop I somehow saw where
Punky Danster sez GG never interviewed me. So does this mean
his claim of speaking with me in Lennon in Amerika was a lie???
Oh what a shock.
Of course when GG got my phone number from Victor Munoz in 1998, he claimed he was another person, a publisher who wanted to put Body Count on a CD... for no money up front.
The saddest thing these days imo is the black tide of liars and motherf***ers and child abusers and phony gurus that laps at the shores of Pepperland.
All four Fabs were SO much more innocent and well-mannered than these slimers would have you think.
I am so grateful that I can still see them in my mind's eye, even with the lousy depiction they get from these loser writers and all the repetition in the newsgroups and mailing lists and stuff.
I had to see for myself.

Worst writer I've ever read.
Yeah, you WOULD think so. It's a bucket of horseshit.
Francie, you are in a monumental state of denial....the likes of which
hasn't been seen here since the myths aboutf Ringo's drumming were debunked.
You have done more to exploit the Beatles and their memory than all the
so-called "loser writers" combined. Almost 33 years after your luggage was
chucked over the wall in St. John's Wood, you are STILL peddling your
wares....currently an overpriced CD taken from a radio show, which is easily
obtainable via download off the net. Not even original material.
Giuliano is something you will never be....a successful writer. I've lost
count of how many books he's had published by major publishing houses since
the late 1980's. All of them have been successful and he is currently
working on another.
Who published YOUR last book, Francie? I refer of course to the Body Count
reissue.

If you are referring to "Lennon in America", I think you have told us more
about yourself than about Giuliano ...

Why are we not surprised that you don't want to hear what was written in
that book?

some
nice things.

Oh - I own a copy, so your remark is off-target (surprise!). I have read
it, and evaluated it, especially the intellectual honesty of the author,
and on the basis of that judgement, I made my statement. This has nothing
to do with "n[o]t want[ing] to hear what was written in that book".
BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!! (gasp)

also, the pictures in it are so strange. John and Yoko look different in
them.
Like the pictures were tamped (sp?) to make John and Yoko look bad.
I can't say anything about the book or the pix as I haven't seen it (them).
But the subject caught my attention because of the name Geoffrey Giuliano.
I always thought he's a bit of a strange, star-struck guy (apologies,
Geoffrey,
if you read this!) I mean, when you meet George Harrison, would you
talk with him about a guru of his and then publish the little chat in a
book?
Another funny thing in that same book ("The Beatles - a Celebration")
is a picture signed by Paul for "Ronald and the gang" because (as Giuliano
puts it) "before writing this book the author played Ronald McDonald for
McDonald's
television ads in Canada". Hello! It's kinda ironic considered that mr and
mrs McCartney were vegetarians.
Cheers!

>It's kinda ironic considered that mr and

Giuliano is himself a radical vegetarian animal rights activist. He now
regrets being Ronald McDonald and Paul's autograph was probably a joke. GG met
Paul in 1986.

Tell us all, Tom: how much money has he donated to PETA (the terrorist
faction, who gave their annual Linda McCartney award to Pamela Anderson)
and how many public appearances has he made on behalf of his beloved
cause?
He probably regrets being MacDonalds' clown only because it was for charity.
Hitler was a vegetarian too.,
Doesn't say anything about character or morality. It's a sham..
Giuliano is not worth defending.
Unless you're being paid for it; are you? I can't think of any other reason for
your
farcical defense of this lowlife no-talent scum.

It may be a good read, but it's not good journalism. Giuliano claims that
the book is based on a copy of Lennon's diaries given to him by Harry
Nilsson. There's no evidence Harry ever had copies of the diary. There's no
way Harry would have betrayed a friend like that if he'd had the diaries. In
the recording of Giuliano's one meeting with Harry, there's no mention of
the dairies. Bob Rosen, who has read the Lennon diaries said "I see little
bits and pieces, pretty mundane stuff, that might have come from the
diaries. The sensational things, I don't know where he got them from. I'm
assuming he made it up, because I've never seen anything like that."
(Buffalo News, May 28, 2000).
In my brief conversation with Mr. Giuliano (by email) I was frustrated
because he can't seem to understand why Nilsson's fans, friends, and family
are upset at his claim that Harry gave him a copy of Lennon's private
diaries. Frankly, the man seems to live in a different universe than the
rest of us.

I know. Hitler suffered from meteorism (excessive farting) because of it.

I was not defending the guy. I was just pointing out a fact to another poster.
