party was held at a nearby hotel room in celebration of John Lennon`s 31st birthday.

Ono had ordered a cake for her husband, which was decorated with the words: "To John from Yoko and the whole world". Much of the
party was recorded for posterity on audio tape, as were much of the couple`s activities at this time.

The guests included Ringo Starr, Maureen Starkey, Phil Spector, Klaus Voormann, Mal Evans, Neil Aspinall, Eric Clapton, Allen Ginsberg and Jim Keltner.
