LENNON+ NIXON + MAO

 Aqui está o que Lennon disse sobre a etiqueta  numa entrevista em 1980.
“You see how they banned the picture here. Yoko made this beautiful poster: Chairman Mao and Richard Nixon dancing naked together, you see? And the stupid retailers stuck a gold sticker over it that you can’t even steam off. At least you could steam off that Beatles [butcher] cover. So you see the kind of pressure Yoko and I were getting, not only on a personal level, and the public level, and the court case, and the fucking government, and this, that, and the other, but every time we tried to express ourselves, they would ban it, would cover it up, would censor it.”

What I find funny is that they did not censor the vulgar sexual cartoon right below the photo of Nixon and Mao.
