Has anyone seen this special issue?
"Remembering John 25 Years Later". I just picked it up today. Some great pictures, and some really good shots of John posing with his Rickenbacker. I haven't had time to read it all but it sure looks like a keeper for any Beatle fan out there.

What idiot picked THAT picture for the cover???
There's probably 35,000 better ones. Looks like he's in what he called his 'Fat Elvis' period, around HELP I believe...

I think it is an awesome shot. Quite a character study in that one.

I also think it's one of the best pics of Lennon that I've ever seen -- plus one that hasn't been shown over and over.

What are you, nuts? His hair's greasy and he looks tired and ******. Of course, If I'd said it was a great picture, the same people would've responded with the opposite reaction. That's what makes Forums great.

Steve, It's actually a very good picture, and if you see the cover in person I think you would agree, and his hair is not greasy in the picture.
Spend the $10.99 for the issue. It's worth it and will make a great collector piece. There are lots of great pictures. I'll post a few.

Ron, I'll send you some of the pics I took via email.
