When John Lennon had finished recording Double Fantasy, shortly thereafter he was assassinated. After several years had passed, many photo compilations of pictures taken in the last year of his life began to hit the marketplace. I had become aware that one of the photographers that had taken some of the last professional photos of John, was involved in several projects with Yoko to issue some of those photos for public consumption. David for example was responsible for the cover photo of the John Lennon “Acoustic” cd.
Starting Over by Ken Sharp
He was also to have several of his photos published in the “Starting Over” book by Ken Sharp and the book “John Lennon Summer of 1980”, a book of photography compiled by Yoko Ono of John and Yoko photos taken by 8 photographers, of which David was one of them.
Many years later I happened to come upon David Spindel’s website (spindelvisions.com) where I saw a photo of a hardcover book that I had never seen before and I quickly made inquiries to David to see if I could purchase a copy.
Even though the book is published privately and therefore more expensive, I quickly made arrangements to buy a copy from David. In doing so I quickly became a good friend of his as he is both kind, generous, and a very funny man. He provided many little signed extras for me when I purchased something from him and he is a very nice guy. In addition, I love his photos of John and Yoko and he is an extremely talented man.
I have included two emails to reach him if you would like to inquire either about his book or his photos or the many celebrities he has interacted with over the years. I have never met David but I truly consider him a good friend and I wish him well in all his endeavors. I love this book and it deserves a much wider circulation in my humble opinion and I am grateful for the opportunity to share my experiences with you when I contacted Mr. David Spindel!!!
