Solo Beatles: Double Fantasy
Screw It, We're Just Gonna Talk About the Beatles - A podcast by Will Hines
We go over the last John Lennon released while he was still alive: Double Fantasy, which came out November 1980. John had not released music for five years. Then he announced he and his wife Yoko were doing a co-album -- each one handling about half the tracks. It's easiest to consider them as two separate albums. As for John's half, they were a stellar set of pop songs expressing the insecurities and hopes of a rocker facing middle age. Tragically, John was murdered three weeks after it came out.
A fascinating album! We get into it.
