John Lennon's New York Years: The Official NYC Merch Collection
In August 1971, John Lennon and Yoko Ono arrived in New York City. They never left. Over the following decade, Lennon became as much a part of the city's fabric as Central Park, the Dakota Building and the skyline itself. The official John Lennon NYC merch collection at Beatles Fabdom celebrates that chapter — from the early recording sessions of 1971 to the Live in New York City concert of 1972. Here's the full range.

Gibson & Shine On: The Studio Years
Lennon's New York years weren't just about the city — they were defined by the music he made there.
