...fans that, since the group's beginning, it has always lived at the outer limits of rock. That is the dangerous borderland where the best rock music is made, the music that lasts and makes a difference. Elvis Presley lived there. So still do Chuck Berry and John Lennon, Van Morrison and Bob Dylan and Bruce Springsteen. Buddy Holly, Sam Cooke and Jimi Hendrix died there. And The Who has taken up permanent residence. The danger that pervades this territory is not a matter of threat, but a kind of proud, blind, spiritual recklessness, forming a musical brotherhood that could...

...widely and easily between old English folk and avant-garde pop. The sound sometimes flirts with the sort of revisions of Eng lish folk idiom that Fairport Convention used to bring off with such foursquare inspiration, and sometimes, as in the title cut, skirts the sonic experiments conducted by Lennon and McCartney on songs like Revolution...

...print in the New York Times what John Lennon and Yoko Ono printed there last week all you need is love-and $18,240. That's what the ex-Beatle, who is now 38 and last released an album in 1975, paid for a full-page ad billed as "A Love Letter from John and Yoko to People Who Ask Us What, When and Why."
