John Lennon in Philadelphia

In May of 1975, after Lennon had launched his solo career, he took an Amtrak train from New York City to Philadelphia to promote his new album and raise money for the Helping Hands marathon. Lennon's influence on music, politics, pop culture and celebrity remained powerful as it was during the height of Beatlemania. And for three wild days he toured the city and exercised his popularity with multiple tv and radio appearances. Join us as we take a trip through John Lennon's Philadelphia.
