I was thinking this the other day:  John was good. Paul was good. But they weren’t great. As they were together.

  

George Martin said something similar I believe. I can’t imagine the pressure that would’ve been on John and Paul if they actually did come together again to make music.

Double Fantasy wasn’t just disappointing, it’s embarrassing schlock from start to finish. And he called Paul’s stuff “Granny s**t”, this is way worse. 

  

The content is retro Elvis Orbison – (Just Like) Starting Over and Beatles inspired – Woman , mixed in with how he felt as a man who was 10 years older. It’s a damn good sound for John and one I would’ve liked to have seen continue if he lived longer.

  

I believe they called Woman “the Beatle one” while they were recording it and Starting Over “the Elvis one.” I haven’t seen this anywhere, but I think Dear Yoko is fairly obviously “the Buddy Holly one.”

Yoko’s double-album “Approximately Infinite Universe” is superior to “Mind Games ” and “Walls & Bridges” combined yoko-ono_01
