Few people knew John Lennon as intimately as May Pang.  Pang was Lennon’s lover during the infamous “Lost Weekend” which lasted 18 months during late 1973 through 1975. 

The Preston & Steve Show had the opportunity to speak with May via Zoom before the debut of her movie, The Lost Weekend: A Love Story (April 13th). Her stories are unbelievable.

Starting as a young woman casually walking into Apple Records asking for a job, May's relationship with John and lead her into Forrest Gump level situations.

From sitting in on John and Paul's all-star jam session, to Yoko asking her to call Jackie O, and being on the set of Happy Days, her tales are jaw dropping. Hear for yourself:

During this highly creative time for Lennon, Pang took candid photos of Lennon in a comfortable, relaxed environment.

A collection of these private photographs will be on display and available for purchase at City Winery - Philadelphia (990 Filbert Street, Philadelphia) on Saturday, April 15 and Sunday, April 16.  The exhibition entitled, “The Lost Weekend – The Photography of May Pang”  is free to the public and all works are available to purchase.
