The avant-garde albums are a matter of taste, but the first two proper albums have some great tracks on. The rest is average for me, but there are some good songs nevertheless - Instant Karma, Mind Games, Beautiful Boy, Power To The People etc. They all float my boat. There's enough good stuff on the non-Avant Garde albums (I actually LIKE "Two Virgins") to fill one album to complement the "Plastic Ono Band" one. I know "Imagine" is regarded as a goodie but a good half of it I can personally live without. "Instant Karma" was probably his best moment - great song and vibe which is more than I can say for anything he did during his "lost weekend" era. Different strokes for different folks I guess, but it frustrates me in Lennon's case since he's a major hero of mine but I can't stomach much of what he did beyond 1971.
