Rare John Lennon Pictures Taken Two Days Before Beatle Was Murdered

Two photos of John taken just two days before that last day in December of 1980. The pictures show Lennon relaxed and happy wearing a round-neck blue jumper and distinctive glasses with blue tinted lenses. He is seen alongside wife Yoko Ono and various others including Radio One disc jockey Andy Peebles who was interviewing him at the time at the Hit Factory studio.

Lennon’s three hour interview with Peebles has become known as The Last Lennon Tapes. In a touch of irony, the DJ’s last question to him was about his personal security to which Lennon replied that he felt safe and comfortable on the streets of New York.
