“Where did he come from, what’s his history? I don’t know but I can tell you it’s an album worth having. The unassuming fellow staring back from the understated cover exhibits nostalgia for the loungy British music hall swing of certain `80s new wavers: Imagine the Smiths without the jangle or the pretense. Like fellow beantowner Jonathan Richman, Lennon has a sensitive charm expressed in his lonely observations and longings. Blessed with irrepressible hum-ability and wonderful simplicity (11 of the 14 tracks clock in under three minutes), these easy listening tunes insulate themselves quicker than a small con on an out-of-town mark. It’s hard to heap enough praise on this album. Pick it up and listen to ‘Definition of Love’, ‘Best Friends Forever’, or ‘Talking to Girls’ and I bet you’ll love it.”
