The story of the legendary musician’s incredible last year.

John Lennon 1980 traces the powerful, life-affirming story of the former Beatle’s remarkable comeback after five years of self-imposed retirement. Lennon’s final pivotal year would climax in several moments of creative triumph as he rediscovered his artistic self in dramatic fashion. With the bravura release of the Double Fantasy album with wife, Yoko Ono, he was poised and ready for an even brighter future only to be wrenched from the world by an assassin’s bullets. John Lennon 1980 isn’t about how the gifted songwriter died, but rather, about how he lived.

I found this book to be well written and very entertaining. It does a great job telling the story of John Lennon's final year as well as filling in the backstory of the previous decade that led up to some of the events in his life in 1980. I have always seen the photos of the Lennon's in Bermuda, in the Dakota and Central Park, or recording their final album, but I never really knew the stories around them. This book goes into great depth and brings the stories surrounding these events, as well as many others, into light. The narration is excellent as well.

for those of us that remember that day, much like the generation b4 us remembering Kennedy death. it is a day no one will forget hearing Howard Cosells announcement on Monday night football. He finally was at total peace with life and got his political mind "right". still miss him.

Well-researched, well-written, and well-read—this is one of the best books I’ve heard on Audible. The author (and the narrator) makes John Lennon come to life in these chapters, and this accomplishment makes the last part of the book poignant, even painful. I highly recommend adding this to your library.

Lennon 1980. The year they made Double Fantasy. Great snapshot of New York City and life at the Dakota.
