John winston lennon - lost weekend (1973 -1975) and clean up time (1975 - 1980)


1. Konzert

In 1974 Lennon separated from Yoko Ono, relocating to Los Angeles. For the next two years Lennon became heavily involved in drugs, and became a frequent attendee of celebrity parties and wild night clubs. Through the party circuit Lennon developed a friendship with Elton John, with whom he co-wrote the song \"Whatever Gets You Through the Night,\" Lennon\'s 1974 No. 1 comeback. The single was featured on the album, Walls and Bridges (which also reached No. 1). On Thanksgiving night, Lennon joined John onstage at Madison Square Garden, a legendary performance which turned out to be Lennon\'s last public concert.
Lennon\'s marriage to Ono had its phases and stages, and for a time the couple separated, leading to Lennon\'s notorious \"lost weekend,\" which was spent in an alcoholic haze. They reunited, though, and on Oct. 9, 1975, Lennon\'s 35th birthday, Yoko gave birth to Sean Ono Lennon.

Thus began the \"house-husband\" phase of John\'s life, during which he doted on Sean and turned his business affairs over to Yoko.


Real Love - The Drawings for Sean:

The book\'s description is just what the title implies. John\'s drawings for his then-very young son, Sean Lennon.
Yoko writes in her introduction to this book that John proudly framed all of Sean\'s drawings. Eventually, John and Sean spent time drawing together.
Yoko said the time that John and Sean spent together drawing is \"how Sean learned the fun of drawing, the fun of doing things with his dad, and the fun of life".
He didn\'t record and spent almost the entire period secluded from his fans and the world. Not until 1980, when he and Ono signed a contract with record mogul David Geffen\'s new eponymous label did Lennon return to the studio for the sessions that would become Double Fantasy (1980).
The album was released in November and rocketed to No. 1, thanks in part to the single \"(Just Like) Starting Over.\" On Dec. 8, John and Yoko were returning home from a recording session when Mark David Chapman, a disturbed fan to whom Lennon had given an autograph only hours earlier, shot and killed the ex-Beatle. He was pronounced dead on arrival at New York\'s Roosevelt Hospital.
Some see Lennon\'s solo work as slight and ineffectual compared with his years as a Beatle. Surely it was for the most part wildly different, daring, and frighteningly honest. In that regard, his solo years were ultimately a success. John Lennon was interested in being an artist, not just a pop star, and at his best (\"Imagine,\" \"Jealous Guy,\" \"Mother,\" \"(Just Like) Starting Over\") he was both.
