Screenplay Writer, Music Journalist, Novelist, and Playwright Ray Connolly wrote his own music column for the London Evening Standard from 1967 until 1973. During this time he struck up a unique and warm friendship with the Beatles, and John Lennon in particular. In 1980 Ray was invited to interview John by Yoko just two days before he was shot dead. Many years later Ray wrote a play about this for BBC Radio 4. (This section runs for 45 mins.)
