Raymond Skilling
John Lennon was one of the most famous
men across the universe when attorney Raymond I. Skilling met the
Beatles and asked the lads to introduce themselves to him — and explain
which instrument each of them played.
The question annoyed Lennon, who almost walked out
of the meeting with Mr. Skilling, one of many attorneys involved with
the Beatles during the era of their break-up.
“John Lennon got really upset with the question and
wanted to leave, but someone talked him into staying,” said Mr.
Skilling’s son, Keith.
When Paul McCartney squared off against the other
three Beatles, Mr. Skilling was called to attend a late-night meeting
with Lennon, Ringo Starr and George Harrison; the raptor-like music
manager Allen Klein, and Beatle consorts Yoko Ono and Maureen Starkey,
according to the Peter Doggett book, “You Never Give Me Your Money: The
Beatles After the Breakup.”
