Well. I just want to know what you think about these 2 John Lennon greatest hits compilations? In 1997 Lennon Legend replaced the 1982 John Lennon Collection with a far better tracklisting, including tracks from Milk And Honey. And 2005 was released Working Class Hero, a collection really unnecesary to me, specially because is just a 'very best', not a 'greatest hits'. It's similar to Wingspan, a collection that I don't really like too much. Of course all songs are spectacular, but not essential. I don't know, what do you prefer? The just-greatest-hits John Lennon or the hits-and-other-(great)stuff Working Class Hero?

About Lennon Legend I think the song Working Class Hero should be repleaced by Woman Is The black person Of The World. Because this collection already has other 2 songs from JLPOB and nothing from SMINYC. Also Woman Is The black person... was released as a single, and Working Class Hero was not.
Well, just put your opinions and vote!

I voted for Working Class Hero as i thought it was an impressive collection
of john's hits along with good album tracks, but i do understand people who
may just want his single collection or best known ones.
It does annoy me at times when more & more compilations come out &
you already have the songs apart from a odd b-side 0r 3 home demos
on the end..



HAPPY 40TH BIRTHDAY TO THE WHITE ALBUM! you say its your birthday!

Oh no! I just noticed! The system did it itself. I didn't know that n*gger is a 'bad' word. I'm from Argentina, and I don't know English very well, as you can see in my messages!

I only have "Lennon Legend" so that one I suppose.


"Wings IV introduced Jimmy McCulloch, a spunky lead guitarist with grit, able to spur Paul on unlike any previous soloist. His debut track, the magnificent single `Junior's Farm', stands as one of Wings' finest emotional and technical releases."

"Few people on this planet know as much about Jimmy's musical history than you."

I know that you use to talk some words in spanish. The other day I watched Friends on Warner and Rachel (J. Aniston) said 'another day of fun and the chicas'. It was really funny. Spanish is the language that you use to mix with english.

I just want you to reassure him - talk to him, make him see the error of his ways. Then I'll hit him.

Because I only own Plastic Ono Band, and Imagine, I bought Working Class Hero.
