RE: John Lennon the genius....but

Somewhat of a sacrilege perhaps, but every time I hear the term "genius" associated with John Lennon I think back to National Lampoon's early 70's musical parody of that claim. "Genius is pain...!!!" Mick Jagger among others was not spared in that satirical rant. I believe it was on the "Radio Dinner" album, and while some might be offended by it I consider it to be positively hilarious, with elements of truth included.

Now having said that I don't dispute that Lennon was a genius, although McCartney would arguably be his equal in that capacity, even though the two tended to approach their craft in different and diverging ways over time. The fact that the two of them were together in the same band contributed mightily to the synergy that separated the Beatles from the rest of the pack.
