Well, Whatever Gets You Through the Night reached the top of the charts on November 16, 1974 and John Lennon appeared with Elton John in concert at Madison Square Garden on Thanksgiving, November 28, 1974 and together sang the new #1 hit, Lucy in The Sky with Diamonds and I Saw Her Standing There (a number by his estranged fiancé, Paul).
