I was six years old when John Lennon was killed. I have no memories of him whatsoever. My whole life, all I've had is the music. Now Yoko Ono and the Lennon estate have given me a perfect opportunity to revisit that music, by remastering and re-releasing nearly all of John's post-Beatles career.
I said "nearly all" because the Signature Box is frustratingly incomplete, and doesn't include a new (and revelatory) mix of Double Fantasy. But is it still worth owning? You bet. This week at tm3am.com I delve into Lennon's solo catalog, and talk about these newly remastered versions that have just hit stores. If you've never explored Lennon's work beyond "Give Peace a Chance," I'd highly recommend it.
As always, click on over to read the column, then head back here to leave me a comment.

Did I only dream of writing that long comment about Lennon? Where did it go?
ReplyDeleteJoshua, I never saw a long comment from you. Sorry! Can you summarize/retype? I'd love to read your thoughts on Lennon's work.
