John Lennon . . . as much a part of our world today as he ever was
He touched many lives in his brief forty years, and continues to move and inspire millions more to this day. Now, invited by Yoko Ono, friends, family, and fans from all walks of life—including some of the great artists of our day—reminisce about Lennon as a visionary and friend, musician and performer, husband and father, activist and jokester.
In words and drawings, poems and photographs, Lennon's life from his childhood through the Beatles years to the happiness and tragedy of his final days becomes stunningly vivid. Here are intimate glimpses gathered from Pete Townshend, Sir Elton John, the late Billy Preston, Joan Baez, producer David Geffen, publicist Elliot Mintz, cousin Mike Cadwallader, Bono, Alicia Keys, Steve Earle, Jello Biafra, and Carlos Santana, to name but a few. And, for the first time, renowned photographer Annie Leibovitz presents every frame of her historic last photo session with John and Yoko.
'Memories of John Lennon' is a rich and deeply felt appreciation of a truly great man.
