Beatles quotes about “Julia”

JOHN 1972: “Me. Yoko helped me with this one.”

JOHN 1980: “Julia was my mother. But it was sort of a combination of Yoko and my mother blended into one. That was written in India… We wrote tons of songs in India.”

PAUL circa-1994: “The interesting thing for me on ‘Julia’ is the finger-picking (guitar) style. He learned to fingerpick off Donovan or Gypsy Dave… That was John’s song about his mum, folk finger-picking style, and a very good song.”
