PHOTGRAPH SMILE-Julian Lennon

John Charles Julian Lennon was born in the UK,april 8th 1963, and was the only child to John and Cynthia Lennon. as a young child Julian had very little to do with his father and Paul McCartney basically took over the father role. the Beatles wrote 2 songs that were inspired by Julian(lucy in the sky with diamonds-the title came from a painting julian did at school, and Hey Jude,originally titled 'hey jules). Julians first recording was in the mid 1970's,playing drums on his fathers track 'ya-ya' from the 'walls and bridges' lp. it wasnt until 1984 that julian released his first album 'valotte',named after the villa in france where he recorded it, the album spawned a hit single 'too late for goodbyes', a good catchy pop song complete with the Lennonesque vocals he inherited from his father,thus the media criticised him heavily for trying to be like John,this was not the case, Julian was being Julian,but the media disagreed. Julian plugged away for the next decade releasing a further 4 or 5 albums which i found spasmatic in their quality,although he did have one great single 'saltwater',which i believe John would have been proud of,but being the son of a Beatle he was always pushing up hills to gain respect. finally in 1998 Julian released 'photograph smile', a very good album,still with the Lennon vocals and one song that was almost a Beatle song 'i dont wanna know', even the video for the song paid hommage to the Fab4.'photograph smile' was Julians last album to date, he moved to france and opened several resturaunts and invested other money in an online company.little has been heard from or about him in the last decade.

I LIKE THIS ALBUM:
