John Lennon
Comment:
Even before John Lennon launched his solo career, he'd already attained a measure of success most artists can only barely imagine — and only a handful ever achieve. Recognized, lauded, [i]deified[/i], he could easily have retired; his recorded legacy would have provided a lavish income even if he never set pen to paper or voice to tape again. But Lennon tore through the early '70s like a tornado, driven by personal and political demons that honed his recordings to a scalpel-edge, laying bare every frayed nerve and every suppressed emotion. Although his career was shockingly abbreviated by an assassin's bullet just as he'd rediscovered the muse that had laid dormant during his "house husband" years, John Lennon's solo work reveals the soul of one of pop culture's most legendary figures and remains essential listening nearly three decades after his voice was tragically silenced.
