Editorial Reviews
9 (out of 10) - ...Surprisingly intimate and immediate-sounding, ANTHOLOGY resurrects the cranky, funny, stoned, passionate, judgemental, sentimental, experimental, and temperamental reality of a man who otherwise survives as a cleaned-up legend...

      The John Lennon Anthology [Box] - John Lennon (CD 1998)
    Review created: 01/07/07
    3 of 3 people found this review helpful.

    A must have for any Lennon fan. The tracks are almost all alternate takes and or deom versions. Many have John talking prior and after the tracks.

    The coolest thing is that it is not a "Greatest Hits" rather a marking of each stage if you will of John's writing and recording.

      John Lennon has amazing talent, this collection shows where it all came from
    Review created: 03/14/03
    by: standells -- a member of Epinions

    Pros:
    4 discs of alternate takes, live tracks, from Lennon s post-Beatles repertoire.

    Cons:
    Absolutely none.

    John Lennon is a man who has great musical talent and determination. From his peace efforts, to his beautiful songs, he has had a great impact on the entire world. This collection takes some of his best unreleased material and put it on 4 great CDs. Each one is a special "chapter" with one of Lennon s cartoons on the cover of each one. The first CD is called Ascot which is from 1969-1971, the time Lennon was living in a house in Ascot. The second CD is called New York City. It contains material from 1971-1973. The third CD is called The Lost Weekend, which has songs from 1973-1974 and one...

      Not for the closet John Lennon fan
    Review created: 10/12/00
    by: JGuynn -- a member of Epinions

    Pros:
    Some rare tracks, some stuff I had never heard before

    Cons:
    some tracks might be considered offensive

    I bought this boxed set as a Christmas present for my wife. We're both big fans of the Beatles and Lennon's solo work so it seemed like the perfect gift. In some ways it was. Some songs that you might know are:Imagine, Working Class Hero (although this version is an unpolished studio version), and Steel and Glass (again unpolished). There are many studio out take versions of songs and cover tunes. The set contains 4 CD's and a booklet. There are some touching moments in there with John talking to a very young Sean Lennon, some studio out takes that are entertaining, and some off the wall...
