John Lennon

On November 28, 1974, John Lennon made a memorable appearance at Madison Square Garden, famously joining Elton John on stage during a triumphant concert. This performance came just after Lennon's album 'Walls and Bridges,' released earlier that same year. Interestingly, 'Walls and Bridges' includes the hit 'Whatever Gets You Thru the Night,' which Elton had encouraged Lennon to release as a single. This was no ordinary concert for Lennon; it marked his final live performance, a moment steeped in emotion and significance for fans. You can feel the excitement in the air as he steps back into the spotlight, a testament to his immense talent and the longing for his return to live music, after stepping away for several years. The collaboration with Elton John not only highlighted their friendship but also provided a powerful reminder of Lennon's profound impact on music.
