To keep in line with our Volume 9 about McCartney, we just had to produce the equivalent about John Lennon's wannabes. It's bittersweet and dreamy and at the same time has all the marks of good Rock 'n' Roll… of which John was the connoisseur inside the Beatles. We hope you thoroughly enjoy this little hour of mind play… Happy New Year to y'all!Get your Lennonisms here.
As usual, your comments are very welcomed.

We are still trying to locate # 3… it got lost. We originally issued all these comps as a very limited 15 CD run collection…sent by mail through the contact we had through our fanzine.
