LAMONT’S MUSIC NOTES- OCT 9, 2019..DAMN !! TODAY JOHN LENNON WOULD HAVE BEEN 79 !!!! JOHN LENNON SHOT TO FAME AS THE CO-FOUNDER OF THE BEATLES IN THE EARLY 1960’S AND ALONG WITH PAUL MCCARTNEY BECAME ONE OF THE MOST INFLUENTIAL MUSICIANS AND POP CULTURE ICONS IN THE WORLD. HIS SONGWRITING PARTNERSHIP REMAINS ONE OF THE MOST SUCCESSFUL IN HISTORY. AS A SOLO ARTIST LENNON SOLD MORE THAN 30 MILLION ALBUMS. WITH THE BEATLES ADD ON ANOTHER 600 MILLION ALBUMS WORLDWIDE. LENNON WAS INDUCTED INTO THE ROCK & ROLL HALL OF FAME TWICE, IN 1988 AS A MEMBER OF THE BEATLES, AND IN 1994 AS A SOLO ARTIST. ON DECEMBER 8, 1980 JOHN LENNON WAS GUNNED DOWN BY MARK DAVID CHAPMAN, A CRAZED FAN WHO SHOT LENNON IN THE BACK AT CLOSE RANGE 4 TIMES. LENNON WAS RUSHED IN A POLICE CRUISER FROM THE FRONT OF HIS APARTMENT COMPLEX THE DAKOTA TO ROOSEVELT HOSPITAL WHERE HE WAS PRONOUNCED DEAD ON ARRIVAL AT 11PM. RIP JOHN LENNON.
