John Lennon and Elton John Live Performance at Madison Square Garden

Venue: Madison Square Garden Location: New York, NY, United States Date: November 28, 1974

On November 28, 1974, John Lennon took the stage for what would become one of his most memorable performances, alongside Elton John at Madison Square Garden. This concert came right on the heels of Lennon's album 'Walls and Bridges,' which had been released just two months earlier, in September. The record included hits like 'Whatever Gets You Thru the Night,' a lively collaboration that had just reached number one, marking a significant moment in his solo career. This performance not only showcased Lennon's raw talent but also highlighted the close friendship he shared with Elton John—it’s hard to believe that this was Lennon's last live performance before he stepped back from the public eye. It’s a bittersweet reminder of his impact and creativity during a pivotal time in music history, where two legends came together for an unforgettable night.
