Offering new insight into Lennon and Ono as individuals, artists and lovers, Days That I’ll Remember is a gifted music journalist’s memoir of a seismic time in music, politics and culture and one of the most incisive and affectionate portraits ever written about this world-altering couple.

In this rich account of their relationship, Cott tells his own story alongside his many interviews with the couple. While most originally appeared in Rolling Stone, they usually did so in shortened form; the full-length versions here contain previously unpublished and often revealing material. Also featured is a recent Cott interview with Yoko Ono as well as images from her private archive.

Jonathan Cott’s relationship with two of the most iconic figures of our time began in 1968 when, as London correspondent for the fledgling Rolling Stone, he went to interview John Lennon and Yoko Ono in their London flat. A friendship was born that lasted for the rest of Lennon’s life and still continues today between Cott and Yoko Ono.

It was Jonathan Cott who interviewed the couple about their Double Fantasy album on December 5, 1980 in their apartment at the Dakota in New York. It would be Lennon’s last major interview.

    “The concept is very good,” John replied, “and I actually went through that and said, ‘Well, okay, let them sit on my lawn.’ But then people just climb in the house and smash things up, and you think, ‘That’s no good, that’s not going to work.’ So actually you wind up saying, Don’t talk to me, really. We’re all trying to say nice things, but ninety percent of the time we can’t make it, and the odd time that we do make it work is when we’re all doing it together as people. And you can say that in a song. So whatever I might have said to someone that day about getting out of my garden, a part of me said that, but, really, in my heart of hearts, I would like to communicate and talk with him or her. But unfortunately we’re human, you know.”

    “When all that hate energy was focused on me, it was transformed into a fantastic energy. It was supporting me. If you are centered and you can transform all this energy that comes in, it will help you. If you believe it is going to kill you, it will kill you.”
