Within that dream, however, lay the seeds of a darker vision that would emerge out of the very counterculture the Beatles and their music helped create. The disillusionment with the sixties, and the hopes associated with the group, would many years later culminate in the assassination of John Lennon and the attempted slaying of George Harr
