Les Anthony was Lennon's bodyguard/driver/Mr. Fixit/jack of all trades.

He enjoyed working for Lennon, he says -- "until Yoko came along." He also witnessed John and Yoko's first meeting, and says that Lennon couldn't get away from Ono fast enough. However, Ono was dogged, and she eventually wore Lennon down. This is a direct quote from Anthony:

"In those days before John left Cynthia, he and Yoko used to do their courting, to put it politely, in the back of the car while I was driving them around.

Not that I could see anything, of course. It was all dark in the back, but John wouldn't have minded much if I could see. Nor would she. What Yoko had was no secret to anyone. Always walking about the kitchen undressed, she was, and it wasn't a pretty sight."

-- from "How Yoko Got John" by Les Anthony

Wow. I always thought the attraction was based on Yoko's weird art. John found it thought provoking.

This account is believable. Yoko cleverly seduced him.

Anthony's complete account is in this group's archives somewhere. It is a most interesting read.
