Listen to this episode all about John and some of his wise and more questionable career moves. [program note correction: it was mentioned in this episode that Lennon's final live performance was on the 1975 Grammys, but his actual final performance before a live audience was actually on April 18, 1975, for "A Salute to Sir Lew Grade."]
