I really love this guy, such a multitalented artist, musicians and a generally decent human being. we know from the internet how few actually decent humans there are in the world.
Klaus very excellent person to talk too I admirer Klaus because he always share his experience with his old best buddies and that's means a lot after so many years of real true friendship
Watching Klaus in front of the Dakota was like a gut punch. What a loss for the world. Wish I was the one interviewing him. The young guy didn’t know what to ask. How do you feel, Klaus, all these years later standing here?
Has Klaus written a memoir yet about his life? What a nice bloke. I saw him in person in Tokyo 10 years ago but wasn't able to meet him as I didn't have tickets for the event. :-(
You can find his book " it started in Hamburg " on his page " voormann. com ". He even sent me the signed book 😃. In his shop you can also find his album " a sidemans journey " with Ringo and Paul and also many drawings related to the Beatles.
It must have been painful for him to see the Dakota again after his friend Johns brutal murder occurred there. The very thought that he couldn’t go inside and visit John anymore because he’s gone. How very sad! But what can he say or do but accept it? Voorman is so soft spoken and humble and he was a loyal friend of the Beatles going back to Hamburg when they were unknown. He seems like such a pleasant fellow. I like him. 👏🏻🎸😎
@@AndreaElizabeth100 I don’t think he went into the Dakota. Can you imagine seeing where Lennon was gunned down? I think he visited the memorial in the park instead. I don’t blame him.
@dynjarren8355 Yes, it would be so painful for him. I really don't know how Yoko Ono and Sean Lennon coped after the brutal horrific murder of John Lennon. They were still living there at that time but I think they also owned other properties. The Imagine Strawberry Fields memorial is really beautiful in Central Park. For those who were young in the 1960s John Lennon was spokesperson for that generation. So many generations love John Lennon and his message of peace. It is all so upsetting even for those not close to John Lennon for his fans and so on.
@@AndreaElizabeth100 I remember I was shattered. I cried all day. It was devastating and because it was so senseless it really made me angry. I’ll never forget it. There was a song by Lynyrd Skynyrd call Mr. Saturday Special which was about cheap handguns. He was murdered with a 22. Caliber. And the song says why don’t we throw them all to the bottom of the sea? Before some fool comes around here and shoots either you or me? But of course, we never learn. Since Lennon’s death there have been how many school shootings? 2 or 3 hundred with how many deaths? Including little kids? It’s unacceptable, disgusting and appalling because the NRA have so much blood on their hands. They just want to sell guns and make money.
@dynjarren8355 I totally agree with you. I live in the UK and guns are not so much of a problem here. It is so sad and senseless. I don't like any weapons. You are right a lot of it is about making money. I'm a pacifist. One of the issues in the UK is stabbings particularly in the big cities and a lot of young men have died. Some of it is gang related but some of it is not at all. In many ways the UK is similar to the USA but we have less of a gun culture here. I also get the feeling that Christianity is more important in the USA than here in the UK. It would be wonderful if John Lennon was still around today. I can certainly relate to some of the things he went through. I agree with him about peace and love. I also admire Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.
See those people walking in the park walk right by Voormann cos they don't even know who he is. If that was 1965 or 66, and he was walking in Calderstone park in Liverpool, he'd be recognized and approached by most people there or on the streets.
I'm pretty sure that is the story he is telling about the rice and walk and why he is saying it in such detail and with such nostalgia. He talks about the guitars in the past tense about when they played together and it is clearly in the gap before Double Fantasy. John used Ton Levin for 'Double Fantasy' and Klaus had moved back to Germany.
I met Klaus in Chicago at one of the Beatlefest's. He signed my Revolver album for me! Talked for about five minutes, he was a very sweet man.
Brilliant genuine guy, no wonder John liked him
Klaus seems a really nice guy, not pretencious at all, and he played with the greats . Wonderful that he shares his memories in a soft and gentle way.
The first Beatles fan ever. He would go every day to see them playing the same songs over and over
What a beautiful man to share his memories. KLAUS WAS ALWAYS MY FAB.
Very informative....sweet and gentle soul.

The Beatles were magic and they attracted other magical people into their orbit....Klaus a prime example.

So fascinating to hear his stories.
I love Klaus. What a wonderful man.
Thank you about Beatles and Trio
A great person
A working-class bass player is something to be! Love you Klaus!
Has Klaus written a memoir yet about his life? What a nice bloke. I saw him in person in Tokyo 10 years ago but wasn't able to meet him as I didn't have tickets for the event. :-(

Klaus is aging very well indeed! He has led an interesting life to say the least.
the German Beatle....great life!
Remember he did the Revolver album cover for the Beatles and the Bee Gees first album cover too.
And made the Bass-Intro of "your so vain" for Carly Simon

Yes, he seems so nice and thoughtful. Yoko Ono was living there until recently.

t amo Klaus

Greetings from Texas.

Wonder when he last saw John.....

Unbelievable....no one in the public reconize Klaus.
@@paulbakker6765 I'm sure they know who he is but they just let him.
As if John needed a hundred dollars...."Here, my son, you´ve earned it."
John was Jesus, Just Imagine.
You would need some imagination for that given how 'troubled' Lennon was.
@@nigefal Thank you oh holieer than thou most pious one. How fulfilling it must be to judge people you never knew.
