(5 out of 5 stars)
"This CD takes you from John's solo years on Apple Records to the Double Fantasy era. Without a doubt, this is truly a greatest hits collection from one of the greatest songwriters of the 20th century. Once you listen to this CD, you will immediately see why John Lennon was the lyrical genius behind the Beatles. As for the songs themselves; well, what can I say?. . . .You've heard them many times before. However, this CD gives you the chance to own all of John's greatest hits on one CD. Another plus for this CD. . . it doesn't venture back to the days when John was a Beatle to add some of his Beatle compositions on this CD. No, you're not going to get Revolution, In My Life, Help, or any of John's other Beatle compositions. This CD is purely John Lennon; as a solo artist. Also, this CD gives you a perspective of John's life from the days the Beatles became legend to his Dakota years. The sound quality of this CD is outstanding. John's voice and the instrumentation never sounded better. This CD is definitely a plus to any audio collection."
