John Lennon is a cultural icon who wrote songs that will be sung for generations. His post-Beatles career was one of artistic wandering. 1970’s Plastic Ono Band was an intense self-analysis. Imagine was his utopian vision (“Imagine”) coupled with his vicious social commentary (“Gimme Some Truth”). Some Time In New York City is his most overtly political. Rock ‘n’ Roll is his childhood dream of playing his favorites come to life. The great moments (“Working Class Hero,” “God,” “Instant Karma!,” “Imagine”) are genius. The “average” moments still feature one of rock ‘n’ roll’s greatest voices and make him seem so endearingly human. The “home demos” showcase his brilliant humor. It’s an understatement to say the man changed the world. The iTunes Signature Box includes John Lennon’s studio albums from the ‘70s (Plastic Ono Band, Imagine, Some Time In New York City, Mind Games, Walls & Bridges and his collection of covers Rock ‘n’ Roll), along with the original version of his 1980 comeback album with Yoko Ono, Double Fantasy, the posthumous release, 1984’s Milk and Honey, and various home demos and studio outtakes.
