ROCK 'N' ROLL NEWS

Beatle John Lennon has got hisself a bad-ass rock and roll band for partners, said bad-asses being known as Elephants Memory, famed for their Metromedia album Take It to the Streets. Band is slightly changed from that record, adding Wayne “Tex” Gabriel, ex-Motor City whiz formerly with Detroit and Guardian Angel, on guitar. Lennon and E.M. did a week-long stint, with Jerry Rubin, Chuck Berry and others as guests, on the Mike Douglas show in January, which aired the week of February 14$.

Lennon will also be touring shortly, it appears, with this group, in a high-powered move for the rev. spearheaded by — among others - Lennon, Rubin, Yoko and Detroit’s John and Leni Sinclair. Sort of the first “socialist rock tour,” you might say.

Sounds good to us.
