I think the book is a photo essay of an era. I checked it out after reading this post and it really captures this one man, John, after he split from the most amazing group of all time. Craig is right about the love. That famous shot of John in his New York shirt, stretched out on his balcony makes this rebel finally look at home. It takes a real eye for the craft and care for the subject to make look calm the most raucous of Beatles.

I haven’t read the book yet but I’m pretty excited to now. I think John is one of the most interesting people of the 20th century and I’m looking forward to seeing how that is manifested through photographs. Is it out of line to say that I’m less excited to see any pictures of Yoko? No disrespect, she is just not my cup of tea.

Great blog. First off Bob Gruen is da man. I’m so tired of the overrated rock photographers like Annie Liebovitz. I know Gruen’s work but don’t have this book. I’ll order it on Amazon tonight and check it out though.

Well put. A friend gave me a copy of the book years ago and it has been a coffee table favorite ever since. I never saw it as a book
about love and friendship, but reading this has given me a fresh perspective on an old favorite. Thank you, Craig
