Don't really much care what she has to say as I'm not much of a Bealtes fan, but it does make sense that if you're looking for the answer to a person's "intent" for anything, asking those who were closest to them is about the best you're gonna do once they're dead. And, like it or not, Yoko was the person closest to John Lennon.I'm personally of the minorioty opinion that she was good for him too. I enjoy Plastic Ono Band more than any but the earliest Beatle records.
The irrational hatred of Yoko is based on a belief that the Beatles would have kept making more and better records had she not been there. Personally, it looks to me like they had already shot their wad by then anyhow.
