(PCM) A new unseen letter from the late John Lennon has recently surfaced and has it the auction block. The letter, titled “A Matter Of Pee”, is one that an angered John Lennon wrote to producer Phil Spector revealing that it was Keith Moon of The Who and singer/songwriter Harry Nilsson who urinated all over the recording console at Capitol Records.
According to the Telegraph, the letter dates to Lennon’s “lost weekend” phase, which was an 18-month long time period during which Lennon was dating his assistant May Pang while he was still married to Yoko Ono and completed work on the 1975 album “Rock n’ Roll”.
Lennon, Moon, and Nilsson were all sharing a studio at the time the letter was penned and the studio wanted to kick all three of them out over the incident. Lennon claimed in the letter “I can’t be expected to mind adult rock stars nor can May, besides she works for me, not A+M! I’m about to piss off to Record Plant because of this crap!”
The owner of the letter note the rarity of the piece, that was penned in red felt tip marker, because it mentions so many well-known figures from that era in musical history. As an added note, Record Plant was a rival studio to Capitol Records at the time and it was there that Lennon was recording at the time of his death in 1980.
