I saw this photo yesterday on Twitter:
It was on an account called Retronaut, and was accompanied by this text:
Last known photograph of John Lennon and Paul McCartney together. Taken by Lennon's partner, May Pang, March 29, 1974 at Lennon's rented house in Santa Monica.And I thought, Lennon's partner May Pang? May Pang? I have never heard that name before.
Well, Wikipedia to the rescue. Turns out Lennon and Yoko Ono separated for 18 months 1973 and he spent that time with Pang, who was about 23 at the start and had been his and Ono's assistant until then. The Wikpedia page contains a lot of details that come from a book Pang wrote about her time with Lennon.
Now there's a fact — among all the Beatles trivia I've learned in my life — that I never knew.

I knew about May Pang but had never seen that photo. Gosh, does it say “Lost Weekend.” Thanks for sharing it, Pat.
