Without John Lennon, we wouldn't have the Plastic Ono Band.
That alone makes him a hero. Or something.

The Beatles hit at the perfect time, I’ve never been a fan but I can respect their longevity and musical contributions. Then they had to get political (particularly Lennon)

Can't tell if you guys are having a little fun at Johns expense, or are really that uneducated about music. I love the Stones. But they probably wouldn't have ever gotten to the U.S. without The Beatles. Those guys literally changed rock and roll music in so many ways. Whether you liked them or not, give them their due. They took the rock scene, if that's what you want to call "rock around the clock", etc, from the 50's sound to Sgt Peppers. They were the first to use multi-track recording. John Lennon was the first guitar player to record feedback from a guitar. (intro to I Feel Fine) Music is subjective. Who's the best guitar player? Depends on who you like, what genre, etc. The Beatles even "gave" the Stones one of their first hits, I Wanna Be Your Man. Mick gave the rock and roll hall of fame intro for the Beatles. I didn't care for John's political views but I loved his music. I don't like Donald Trump as a person, but damn sure like him as our Pres. The Beatles, Stones, Zepplin...ALL rock. I agree Paul had the more successful solo career, but John put the Beatles together and was the mastermind behind it all. Rest in peace John.

That alone makes him a hero. Or something. Coincidentally, earplugs were invented about the time Yoko started singing.

I believe it is lack of knowledge It can be none of those things. A lot of people believe it or not, are not enamored with celebrity. I’m not mad at Lennon, I could just care less.
