Day 10: Watching the Wheels, John Lennon

As I watched the video to this tune it made me feel really sad. Lennon, like McCartney, was an amazing talent and this song appeared on the album Double Fantasy which was release after his assassination in 1980. The album is only half decent in that all the songs he did were great while all Yoko’s contributions were ?? (well perhaps it is an acquired taste).

I also relate to this tune because in 2017, after leaving Imagen, I also spent a long time watching the wheels go round and round while writing my book. My conclusion: we live in mad world that’s for sure.


My Video Summary

If you click on the Playlist Video for Week 2 (top right of this page) you will be taken to a single video which allows you to play each song in this week's list one after the other. Alternatively, if you watch my own video summary below of this week's songs at the end of the video two playlist links will appear. The one on the left hand side will take you to the video playlist for this week while the one on the right will take you to a single video playlist that allows you to play the complete Covid Island Discs collection for all the currently completed weeks so far — well over 200 songs and counting!
