What was John Lennon's net worth?
His personal fortune was estimated at $150 million by the fall of 1980, before his death; most of his investments were in real estate and organic farming. (Tarot reader John Green asserted in Dakota Days that Lennon's actual fortune was far less, and the rest was hype on Yoko Ono's part.)
Which religions did the Beatles follow?
Paul McCartney and George Harrison were both baptized as Catholics, but their families were not particularly religious, and McCartney rejected religion after his mother died. John Lennon attended the local Anglican church (called the Episcopal church in some parts of the world), and was confirmed at fifteen. Ringo Starr did not appear to have a religious background. Each of the Beatles declared themselves atheists by the time of their 1965 Playboy interview, though it was more a denouncement of organized religion than of God per say.George Harrison began a spiritual quest of his own, after the Beatles were each handed copies of a book about reincarnation during the filming of Help! Harrison later embraced Hinduism, studying the teachings of several Indian gurus until he connected with Srila Prabhupada's Hare Krishna movement, becoming a sponsor of ISKCON.John Lennon rejected virtually every religious teaching he'd been exposed to in his lifetime, in his song "God" on John Lennon/Plastic Ono Band; the lyrics included "I don't believe in Jesus", "I don't believe in Bible", "I don't believe in tarot", and "I don't believe in mantra/Gita/yoga". His time in Primal Therapy had convinced him that religion and faith were mostly a crutch. (Despite this, he and Yoko Ono kept a tarot reader on retainer during the 1970s, and publicist Elliot Mintz asserted later "John believed in all of it." Lennon also declared in his 1980 Playboy interview "I'm a most religious fellow.")Paul McCartney pursued a kind of secular spirituality later in life, praying for his wife Linda when she had trouble giving birth to their daughter Stella, and declaring in the 1990s "I'm not religious, but I'm very spiritual." His 2001 song "Freedom", written in the wake of the 9/11 attacks, spoke of freedom as "a right given by God". (He had been waiting onboard an airliner at Kennedy Airport, when other airliners were being hijacked to make the attacks.)Ringo Starr probably spoke least of all the Beatles about his personal beliefs, but he took part in the religious mockery and parodies of others, including The Magic Christian (a Peter Sellers movie based on a Terry Southern book) and friend Harry Nilsson's song "Good For God".
Did Buddy Holly tour in England?
He was one of the only American rock musicians to tour England in 1958, and was also on Sunday Night at the Palladium while he was there, so many young people got to see him live, unlike other American performers who didn't tour overseas. He also was one of the biggest influences on The Beatles in sound and name, the name of his band "The Crickets" influencing The Beatles to choose their name. John Lennon was especially a huge fan of Buddy.
