John Lennon was an English rock musical who gained worldwide fame as one of the founders of the Beatles, the most critically acclaimed band of their time. In 2004, Rolling Stone magazine ranked Lennon number 38 on their list of "The Immortals: The Fifty Greatest Artists of All Time and ranked The Beatles at number 1.
By 1967, the psychedelic movement in London was in full swing, and mind expanding was all the rage. It was during this stage of John Lennon's life that he met two Dutch artists, Simon and Marijke Posthuma, better know as "The Fool." Embracing the psychedelic mood of the time, Lennon commissioned The Fool to paint psychedelic works of art on his Rolls Royce, his upright piano and of course his J-160E acoustic guitar.
Soon after the release of Sgt. Pepper, the Beatles performed "All You Need Is Love" live, via the first-ever world-wide satellite broadcast. It was 1967, and "the Summer of Love." For this special performance, John Lennon unveiled his newly painted psychedelic acoustic. Later, in an October 1967 issue of the British Beat Instrumental magazine, an article about Lennon's music room in his Weybridge home entitled "John's Music Room" was published. For the accompanying photos, Lennon appeared with his newly painted psychedelic acoustic, showing off his more "trippy," Magical Mystery side.
