GUNNS GROTTO 300 mothers

Gunn's Grotto Podcasts

Who's mother is this?

She wasn't his real mum but Aunt Mimi bought John Lennon up from the age of 4 and he lived with her till he was 22.

Look closely and you will see, like any proud mum, she's got his photo on top of the telly.

She was known to be a bit strict, not allowing the other Beatles into her pristine home, and I detect many of the phrases she must have used when scolding John in the lyrics of his songs.

Come down to Gunn's Grotto with me Peter Gunn tonight to hear the 300th episode of Gunn's Grotto.

Not all of these mothers and mamas are actually real mothers.

Sweet Rockin Mama, Sugar Mama and Mean Mistreating Mama for example are the other sort...

James "Wee Willie" Wayne is Goin’ To Tell Your Mother, and leather clad and tooled up Gene Vincent will be asking his Mama if he can go out tonight.

Nobody's Children will describe Mother's Tin Moustache whilst The Id ask

"Boil The Kettle Mother".

But there's no getting away from it, in the end we all have to go back to Mother Earth.

And Mother knows best.
