John Lennon: What You Got

John Lennon at his Funky best!  This is from one of his most under appreciated LPs from the mid 70s.  It did have a number one hit, Whatever Gets You Through The Night, with Elton John, but most people have panned this LP in the day.  However, years later it still holds up, and is much better than Mind Games. This song rocks and is funkier than all get out! Enjoy!

Paul McCartney: Wonderful Christmas Time

One of the nice thing about the Beatles is that every Christmas they created some cool songs and recordings for their fans. Paul in 1979 made this song, with his band Wings in that spirit. Of course John Lennon also made a Christmas recording in 1972. Happy Xmas the War Is Over.

John Lennon: Give Peace A Chance

I am just having too much fun tonight! God bless you John, I know you probably didn't believe in the big guy, but at least the Church forgave you for saying you were bigger than Jesus!:-) I also realize why I have been in a Beatle funk this month. John died 28 years ago this month! I hate to say this, but it seems like yesterday. I remember where I was when it happened I was sleeping in bed and a friend called me up to tell me the news. It was devastating. I was numb for months. At that time I was a huge Beatle freak. I lived, and breathed the Beatles, and John was my favortie. I liked John because he was working class like me, and I thought that if a guy like him could make it, so could I. However, being a working class hero proved to be pretty elusive in the long run. Yet, I like to think that I do my small part to make the world a better place.

John Lennon And Yoko Ono: Happy Christmas War is Over.

I know I am going to make a bunch of right wingers, and wingnuts mad, but I don't care. This song is as relevant today as it was in the early 70s.

John Lennon And Chuck Berry: Memphis

A rough start, but a classic John Lennon and Chuck Berry on the Mike Douglas show, oh, and the screeching in the background, thats Yoko:-)
