ROCKOLLECTIONS: REMEMBERING JOHN LENNON PT.2 END
We continue our celebration of John Lennon’s life.
Last week we talked about George Harrison’s last song, Horse To Water.
But what was John Lennon’s?
I will play 2 versions of what is commonly regarded as his final song, one a rough cut by him and the other by Mary Chapin Carpenter.
Carpenter does such a good job on it, I feel she took it away from John and made it her own!
Back to his Beatle days after that, with a take that sounds very Buddy Holly to me.
Engineer Ken and I decided to go back to the Mind Games album to finish things off.
There are so many good songs on that LP that were never heard, as the radio playlists began to get even tighter.
So to rectify that a little, we will hear Tight A$ (that’s right, no typo), a catchy rocker called Only People, Out Of The Blue and finish with One Day At A Time- the best way to live your life.
If those song titles do not sound familiar to you, well, I rest my case about commercial radio!
And that will do it for George and John this year.
Hope you got something out of it.
Mike

Good Morning Mike! ‘It’s Only Love’ was one of my favorite John songs. Fortunately, we have the access to relive some of the The Beatles tunes. Doesn’t seem that long ago when I’d RUSH into the room to watch & listen to the Fab Four. Oh ~ what days those were.
Thanx
Dear Anonymous,
Glad I picked one of your favorites.
I still rush into the room to hear the Fabs, so you’re right, really no time seems to have gone by.
But those were indeed great days, makes me think of the words in S & G’s Bookends, “Time it was, and WHAT a time it was…”
I hope you have had the opportunity to hear the new re-masters of the Beatles- it is outstanding!
Thanks for listening, and especially for writing,
Mike
OOPS! I see I turned up as Anonymous! Oh well~I’ve been called worse.
Thanx again Mike♥
Dear Gr8fulheart,
I think I prefer Anonymous- it’s easier to spell, lol!
Been called worse myself…too many times to count.
Merry Christmas,
Mike

While all ROCKOLLECTIONS Players can resize to just about any dimension, the ROCKOLLECTIONS Player Slim is designed to fit more info into a smaller space: like a blog’s side column or on a highly-cluttered social profile. It has been particularly popular with podcasters. The very first viral podcast player, after all, was the ROCKOLLECTIONS Player Slim’s grandaddy.
