I quit listening after “Imagine”...and kicked myself for not stopping after “Back in the USSR”

"and kicked myself for not stopping after “Back in the USSR”

That's was a McCartney Song.

Of course, "Revolution" and "Dear Prudence" from the same album are timeless classics and they were Lennon songs.

He was an enormously talented song writer by universal acclaim.

And, yes, also a Godless Commie.

But to deny his talent is to deny reality...as he himself often did.

You lasted longer than I did. I was in Jr High when the Beatles arrived like an invading army. There’s never been anything like that since. Some of my musician friends think their early stuff is too simplistic but I still like it.

And they were still good through Rubber Soul. Yesterday and Today. Revolver. Those were good albums, interesting music. Sgt Peppers, not so much IMO and very little that followed after.
