1971 – an easy year?

Imagine

1971. Imagine by John Lennon.

Thought I’d start with an easy year to pick as this album contains one of my fav songs ever, which would be, funnily enough, Imagine. I can’t remember this album from the time obviously, being only 3 years old! I’m a big Bealtles fan, and particularly like John Lennon’s contributions to the band as well as his solo stuff. It’s not my favourite John Lennon album – that would be Shaved Fish, the compliation album from about 1974. But I haven’t decided yet if I’ll include compilations in the Top 40 or not – it seems like cheating! …Though there have been some spectacular compilation albums – think, Louder than Bombs by The Smith

So maybe I should pick Shaved Fish as my John Lennon album and save 1971 for something else?…
