Biography

If John Lennon had only been one of the four members of the Beatles, his artistic immortality would already have been assured. The so-called "smart Beatle," he brought a penetrating intelligence and a stinging wit both to the band's music and its self-presentation. But in such songs as "Strawberry Fields Forever," "Norwegian Wood (This Bird Has Flown)," "Rain" and "In My Life," he also marshaled… Read more in Amazon's John Lennon Store

5.0 out of 5 stars A superb collection of the best solo work of John Lennon, 7 Dec 2003
By A Customer
This review is from: The John Lennon Collection (Audio CD)
I have spent the afternoon listening to the respective "greatest hits" albums for each of the Beatles during their solo careers, and [in my opinion] "The John Lennon Collection" is clearly the best of the quartet. The nineteen songs collected here represent less than a dozen year's work, from "Give Peace a Chance" (with both Lennon and Tommy Smothers on guitar) in 1969 to "(Just Like) Starting Over" in 1980. Listening to these familiar songs again, what strikes me is the way they represent the different facets of Lennon's songwriter persona. Here is Lennon the angry young man ("Instant Karma!" & "Power to the People"), Lennon the romantic ("Woman" & "Love"), Lennon the father ("Beautiful Boy (Darling Boy)"), Lennon the dreamer ("#9 Dream"), Lennon the pacifist ("Happy XMas (War Is Over)"), and Lennon the idealist ("Imagine"). Ironically, in trying to find himself in the decade after the Beatles split up, Lennon ended up revealing more of himself than did McCartney, Harrison and Starr in their solo careers. The other nice thing about this collection is that off the top of my head I cannot name another song from Lennon's solo albums that I would have wanted to have seen included.

4.0 out of 5 stars very good, but not the best, 26 Feb 2002
By A Customer
This review is from: The John Lennon Collection (Audio CD)
While the CD contains almost all the vital tracks, it is missing Working Class Hero, one of my person favorites. All the other important ones, Imagine, #9 Dream, Stand by me, Woman, are on there. For the definitive collection get the new "Lennon Legend" (20 songs) but this is very close (17).
