Strangely enough, I remember where I was and what I was doing when I heard the news. I guess it was that kind of thing for me.

JUST rolled into my carport after coming home. Sat there stunned. It is as vivid as Kennedy's death.

I was 15 at the time. It had a profound affect on me even though I wasn't a Beetles fan.
RIP Sir.

The only time I ever saw my father cry was when Lennon died.
Its funny, You hear someone play the same song for years and get sick of hearing it. I am grateful this was caught on video...

I admit that I shed a tear. I felt like I had lost a friend. Perhaps I was duped by him and his image but he helped me change the way that I viewed the world.

Then, it just sounded like someone carrying a grudge, but if the stories about Julian are true, well, that's just tragedy on a lot of levels... |

I can see a lot of what the author was saying happening. Everyone has their own take on things - sometimes getting a different perspective helps get a better big picture. Sometimes the myth is greater than the man. Doesn't mean the man didn't contribute because of course he did. Remarkable talent, indeed.
