Including their solo stuff.
My vote is for "Paperback Writer" as the best 2-chord (G7 and C
major) song -- it is so lively that one barely notices or cares
that there are technically two chords.
And "Give Peace a Chance," utilizing C major and G major is the
worst. It's the product of John's being an acid casualty and
allowing Yoko to convince him that his music was just "the music
of the people."
Thanks for the correction on "Paperback Writer."
It sounds like the participants in "Give Peace a Chance" might
have been having fun un a dope-smoked, unwashed kind of way.
I think the mood of the bed-ins was sloppy and drug-addled.
"Give Peace A Chance" is not up to the standards of Lennon's
earlier, Beatles work.
I don't think the younger Lennon would have been mesmerized by
Yoko or bagism.
