The past cover of rolling stone magazine

In 1968, Rolling Stone chose Lennon and Yoko Ono holding hands with their backs to the camera as the cover, which caused a national sensation. In 197, Wenner hired Annie Leibovitz, a 2-year-old student from the University of San Francisco, as the chief photographer. Lennon and Yoko Ono repeatedly appeared in Rolling Stone through her lens, accompanied by a long interview with Lennon. Records of the Beatles can be found in Rolling Stone, from the initial clever calm to the Beatles craze, as well as various entanglements with revolution and religion, until their dissolution. On December 8, 198, Leibovitz took a photo of Lennon and Yoko Ono, who had become friends with the couple and lived in the same apartment in new york Central Park. On December 1th, before Anne could show the photo to the couple, the news of Lennon's assassination came. This last photo of Lennon eventually became the cover of the special issue of Rolling Stone in memory of Lennon. At this time, "Rolling Stone" is extremely close to the moment that affects the history of rock music.
