Ryan muses on the musical prowess of John Lennon
On December 8th 1980, John Lennon was assassinated by Mark David Chapman, outside of his New York City residence.
He is considered one of the most influential songwriters of his time, perhaps of all time, with some of his most popular work as a member of The Beatles.
One of his most well known songs, 'Strawberry Fields Forever' with the Fab Four was a deviation from typical music theory.
Utilizing unique chord progressions, he created a song that some have said 'disturbs the comfortable, and comforts the disturbed.'
Ryan from 104.7 The Lizard had a field day playing this unique song from the iconic songwriter.
