They were good merchandising. That's it.
They had some catchy tunes..like the I love you ..yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah...ect ect etc.
But their music was NOT as outstanding as some would have you believe and John Lennon was not the greatest musician in history or of the 20th century or even the 1960's.
He was by 1980 a washed up ex-rock star that had been holed up in his NYC apartment for 10 years and was mostly outdated and no one really considered his music to be relevant anymore.
Shit, remember in the early 70's when him and his flake of a wife holed up in an Amsertdamn hotel room and had a love in for peace? The guy was a fucking flake, prancing around it is all white suits, hair down to his ass and a Jesus beard.
If he wasn't killed, he'd probably still be doing the same thing now, except hopefully everyone would see him for the nutjob, deadbeat dad and heroin addict that he was.
OVER. HYPED.
