specially the stuff about the drummer.
I am not sure its particularly valid to call Warhol and Jack The Dripper (Pollock) "cons" though.
I think just suggests your interests don't lie in the art world.
Warhol at least was a commentator on consumer society and that referencing of other factors is something that "pop" music came to late but has jumped into feet first now that the sampler is such an important part of music making. But its nothing new. As soon as there was a form of writing music people wrote down existing melodies and claimed them. Beethoven quoted folk songs and never credited them.
As soon as music could be recorded, perhaps the equivalent of a print instead of a painting, it changed the art. Opened it up to more people.
Things change. Ono was a part of a time. The Vietnam War. Don't forget waht a defining event it was for those times and how after she had pushed (albeit willingly, imo) Lennon into an agit-prop political position he came out with Give Peace A Chance as a reaction to the continual talk of war.
A brilliant single and undoubtedly a very influential piece of art as suddenly the word peace was people's lips instead of war.
As an artist it doesn't get better than that, again... imo.
John and Paul were both introduced to the arty worlds by their women and I don't mean Linda...
