The FabFour
Over the past several years, I have had the privilege of performing with Canada’s ultimate tribute to the Beatles. In my experience, it is clear that the love for the music of The FabFour is stronger than ever - even with younger audiences.

In His Own Write
But what about the music of John Lennon’s solo career? Although, perhaps not not as universally well known, the catalogue of Lennon songs - post-Beatles - is still exemplary.

Imagine
You may have also read how John Lennon’s most beloved songs, "Imagine" has been in the news recently. Indeed, official songwriting credits have been split evenly between John Lennon and Yoko Ono.
In fact, John Lennon himself believed credit to his wife and artistic collaborator was long overdue: "Actually, that should be credited as a Lennon-Ono song because a lot of the lyric and the concept came from Yoko. But those days I was a bit more selfish, bit more macho, and I sort of omitted to mention her contribution."
