  • A goodbye that should not have been

    "Milk and Honey" is the first posthumous album from John Lennon, supervised by Yoko Ono. It contains songs that Lennon had always intended to be included on the followup to "Double Fantasy", so his songs are still rough around the edges in places. No doubt if given time, he would have reworked them, possibly even re-recorded some or all of most. John could take years to tinker with material, completely rewriting lyrics if he felt it was needed. Yoko's material as a whole is more polished, and several of the songs ("Your Hands" is one) directly relate to her feelings towards John after his murder. The accusatory tone she would employ in "Double Fantasy" (such as "Moving On") is gone, replaced by a reverence for her departed husband. As such, "Milk and Honey" is somewhat more uneven than its predecessor. That said, it's John's material that makes the album worth having, despite the fact that over the years, Yoko developed into a very good songwriter (I refer the interested listener to "Every Man Has A Woman Who Love Him", a compilation of her material covered by other artists). While some of John's songs would probably not have made the final cut ("Forgive Me (My Little Flower Princess)"), tunes like "Nobody Told Me" show Lennon in fine rocking style. The gem of the record is "Grow Old With Me"; an achingly beautiful ballad that exists only as a demo on a home cassette. In later years, Yoko would have Beatles Producer George Martin score the song, turning it into a bad copy of a Paul McCartney ballad. The unadorned version on "Milk and Honey" is much better, and shows us a glimpse of what it could have been, had John been able to record it properly. The sad irony of a man who would be unable to make good on his promise that "the best is yet to be" gives the tune an unintended poignancy.
