I think the book is great. I think it is sort of a broad overview of his life, nothing too detailed because he had a very complicated existence, in my opinion. If you got into one fathom of him, you'd have to break down a lot more and it would make the book a little too heavy. Its supposed to be kind of fun "memorabilia" type thing...I adore the CD because I love JOhn in interview format. He was sharp!
The "Lennon Legend" CD brings back a lot of great memories for me. I think I got it right after "Double Fantasy." It was the only thing I listened to for about half a year. Then I got POB and so forth...needless to say, I was HOOKED.
