Thanks for the pics Ex Tex!
Was Coming Together earlier and realised It’s Johnny’s Birthday in six days.
You’re welcome. Yes, I’d forgotten his birthday was coming up. I tend to celebrate death days of dead people more than I do birthdays.

As much as I love George, one can’t deny Johnny’s a good-looking man. 
Aesthetically speaking, I favour John of the ’65 vintage:

P3pperish is right, John’s ballad singing on ‘To Know Her Is To Love Her’ is wonderful.

Offline Yeah, that’s a good song. John’s voice has a different quality on some of those earlier songs–like “Anna” for instance. You can’t really recognize it’s him.
I like all versions of John but if I had to pick a favorite, I’d say 1969-1971 (the period of time from white suit and long hair/beard/Live Peace In Toronto to short hair/Ascot/Imagine sessions).

His vocal on the ‘Rock and Roll’ outtake is fantastic as well – very different feel to the Beatles version. John had a great voice for the oldies.

I say in speeches that a plausible mission of artists is to make people appreciate being alive at least a little bit. I am then asked if I know of any artists who pulled that off. I reply, 'The Beatles did'.
