John Lennon

Sweet Toronto 1969 John Lennon

This 1969 concert brought John, Yoko, and the Plastic Ono Band to Toronto's Sweet Toronto Peace Festival--introducing Yoko to the heroes of her husband's childhood: Bo Diddley, Jerry Lee Lewis, Chuck Berry, and Little Richard. Captured on film by D. A. Pennebaker, who had already directed the seminal Bob Dylan documentary DON'T LOOK BACK, this is Lennon's only filmed performance with the Plastic Ono Band.
