Beautiful music
I think that John was a very talented musician. I really love oh my love it is a very beautiful song and is really pretty on the piano. This book has quite a few of his best songs. I really enjoy this book.

Sheet music
I would have to say that I have only pleasant feelings for this company. Thank you for a good price, quick delivery, and a great book of sheet music. Anyone looking for a good selection of Lennon titles may very well find it summed up in this book. I know that almost every song I had been looking for was found in this book.

Lennon Essentials
All the best of Lennon (except #9 Dream, for some reason?) and a select few of Yoko's best that compliment John's. The perfect companion. I just have to find #9 Dream and I'll be completely delighted.

Excellent... but?
There is no doubt that this represents a huge chunk of Lennon's best solo work. The transcriptions are pretty good too and most sound good on piano. However, for real Lennon fans there is no #9 Dream, Bless You, Nobody Loves You When... etc. Maybe a few of the Yoko songs at the end (yes 7!) could have made way for these classics.

Beautiful
I am not too familiar with John Lennon's music but when I immediately heard "Imagine" and some of his other greatest hits, I got chills down spine. It's very rare that I conjure up such emotions. Overrall, this is absolutely beautiful music for the mind and soul. Recommend it to any human being, regardless of music genre one typically enjoys.

A Masterpiece
John Lennon touched the lives of many with his music. I'm only thirteen, and the only one in my grade that shows my passion for his music. I've been playing the piano for four years, and have been playing the Beatles for the past year. This book is a challenge for me, but I'm willing to meet it. Never was the greatest music ever written put all in one book before. I love it!

John Lennon's - Supreme Solo Career
Some of the greatest works from an artist that touched the life of millions, round the world. An exceptional human being whom we probably, will never again experience the likes.
