One of the greatest figures in popular music during the ’60s, followed by a highly interesting — and frustrating — solo career. Lennon was capable of inspired, brutally honest confessional songwriting and melodic songcraft; he also had an undying love of straight-ahead rock & roll. But the extremes, both in his music and his life, were what made him fascinating. Where Paul McCartney was content to be a rock star, Lennon dabbled in everything from revolutionary politics to the television talk show circuit during the early ’70s. After having a rough start of the 70s he decided to sober up and retired but launched a comeback with his wife Yoko Ono in 1980. Just as his career had been given a rebirth and his career was on an upswing again then he was tragically assassinated outside his New York apartment building in December of 1980. This dvd captures some rare TV material recorded between 1968 and 1980.
