    Anyone else see this? It was on last night on PBS. He actually had a jukebox filled with his favorite music, and the show was about how those tunes influenced him as a musician. It was very interesting - wish it had been more than an hour long, though.

    nice! i didn't see it. i did see the documentary on the 60's though. that was pretty cool too. i would have loved to have been at berkely or columbia during those heady times.

    john lennon really does it for me, even with yoko screetching in the background. i love the lennon.

    In the end, the records in John Lennon's jukebox simply confirm that he was a rock and roll fan -- as if there could have been any doubt about that! -- and that he wasn't averse to lifting a little something here and there to further his own art, even if he couldn't imitate it perfectly.

    i am glad he didn't imitate too perfectly. now we have a bunch of great music.

    Sorry I missed that one. I did see the one on Bob Dylan, though. Really liked it.
