Hello Tony…don’t know if you’ve had any previous contact with this website or Joe, the proprietor, but either way I’m sure he’s thrilled to see you visiting (as are we all!)

This is the first time I’ve seen the correct composers credited for this track anywhere! All of the discographies I’ve seen (if they list “Hushabye Hushabye” at all) credit it to Ono/Lennon). So thank you for setting the record straight!

“Hushabye Hushabye” is in fact “I’d Love To Fall Asleep And Wake Up In My Mammy’s Arms”, written by Sam M. Lewis & Joe Young (words) and Fred E. Ahlert (music) in 1920 and performed by Fred Douglas in 1921.

The cover! it was a LP, I have it, vinyl from 68, the cover is great! a fantastic statement from John Lennon. Mind you, he had the world in the palm of his hand at the time, but decided to break down his moptop image and go public with “two virgins”! a brave statement. The music? didn’t he said that “avant garde” was french for bullshit? he didn’t give a flying monkey about this collage! but it was the blueprint for the great “revolution #9”
