John Lennon - The Collection
John Lennon was a legend and we had heard his song 'Imagine' which was nice to listen to but also made immense sense to us as youngsters. Why borders, why religion - today Yuval Noah Harari says they are all fictions and so they are. But for Lennon to have retained that space in his mind, to think freely like a young mind, is wonderful.

So this collection introduced me to a whole new side of Lennon and his music.

I connected with songs like 'Jealous Guy' and 'Woman'. 'Power to the people' and 'Beautiful Boy' were others. Why was Lennon great? Because even now, after so many years I can remember those tunes and sing them - can't say that for most others.
Cannot remember where I bought this tape. But it was always handled carefully - Lennon brought some intelligence and sanity to the music.
