John Lennon: Imagine

Today in class we listened to John Lennon's solo album "Imagine". One thing that I won't deny about Lennon is that he has a gift for writing songs. Excluding the babble that somehow came together from his writings in Magical Mystery Tour, all of his songs sound really deep and meaningful. I'm no musician but the way he arranges the notes and beats, and his creativity of based sound so advanced and awesome. However, I don't really like his album as a whole. Part of it is because I like The Beatles as a group together, all harmonizing and complimenting each others talents. However, I don't really like Lennon's voice alone, as I feel that it sounds kind of flat and dull. I think I would like the voice solo of McCartney, but the writing skills of Lennon. Overall I like them together as a group and wish they would have stayed together for longer to enlighten us with their amazing music.
