John Lennons Birthday today

ScottMP

I posted this, Maddog and I got into about the moral decay of our society. This time I just want to celebrate a mans life who helped bring us some of the best music ever made. John and Paul helped open the door and even showed other musicians around the room, of what could be done in music.

John and Paul treated music writting like a business and "pumped" out song after song. John once said the Beatles did'nt lead the way for the changes that happened in the sixtys, they where in the crows nest of the boat and where just calling out what they saw happening.

Another Great Loss.

Scott

SHINE ON!

I always think about the great music that was never written due to an early departure. But we still have an incredible body of work.

Scott, I did pick up the book "Many Years From Now". Great book, a must read for any Beatles fan. Thanks for the suggestion.

Thats Great Paul

You'll really like it. The thing I found really interesting is how they approached writting music. They really had a formula. The storys about riding on the bus down Penny Lane and Ringo saying it was " a hard days night " were fun to read. My favorite was Norwiegan Wood.

Underrated Lennon tune...

"Gimme Some Truth" from Imagine. "No short-haired yellow-bellied son-of-tricky-Dicky's gonna Mother Hubbard soft-soap me with just a pocket full of hope..."

Or how about Walls and Bridges for an album? The dude made some awesome music...

another oldie but goodie...

How about the "Rock And Roll" album -- remakes of a bunch of late 50's-early 60's tunes. Stand By Me and Just Because were awesome. I've got an old 45 of Lennon doing "Hound Dog" live around here somewhere. Gotta dig it out now. See what you started...

An interesting album

that came out last year was "Love." A beatles collage re-mixxed by George Martin and his son for the musical backdrop of the circe de solle(sp?)show by the same name. Very interesting layering and re-mixing of the original Beatle Music. A nice recording of George Harrison, I had never heard before, doing an acoustical version of "As My Guitar Gently Weeps," with a new verse to boot. One song is played backwards. Another is the Ringo vocals to Octopusses garden overlayed on the music of the song "Nows the Time to say Goodnight." It fits and if you didn't know the music well you wouldnt pick it up. John would have liked it. Happy Birthday old friend. WW
