An Interesting Perspective on John Lennon

There's extensive slagging of the Mick Jagger but check the basis for it.




There's no need to mass debate the pros and cons of the things he said since Beatlemania was even before things went completely insane in Vietnam.


I've seen many of the greatest bands in concert but The Beatles had disbanded before I had the means or the wherewithal to attend one of their shows.  During this time, parents would never accompany a kid to a rock concert.  There was zero chance that would ever happen.

Don't anticipate that presaging a slam of parents who do it now since I have mixed feelings about it.  Parents at a rock concert represent an implicit invasion of the World of the Young ... but ... they may come away with an understanding they did not have previously and that rarely if ever happened in the Sixties / Seventies.
