A folk musician says he "didn't know anything about" a letter written to him by John Lennon.

Steve Tilson "never actually received" the former Beatles' letter but was sent a copy of it by an American collector.

"John Lennon had written to me about something I'd said in this interview for ZigZag magazine," said Tilson, whose story is being turned into a Hollywood film.

"He left his home phone number. Knowing the brass necked Herbert I was in those days, I would have rang him and been around like a shot," he added.
