John Lennon - Well Well Well

One of my most vivid childhood memories was the day John Lennon was murdered.  I remember walking into my parents room and seeing my mother crying.  I got very confused when she explained that she didn’t know him personally, but felt like she grew up with him.  She went on to explain what a loss it was for our society.  Of course, as a young boy that had an impact on me, which naturally led to a curiosity about his music. Here’s one of my favorites from his catalog.
