    Unusual and rare photo of John Lennon, from 1973. Not his usual hippy/moptop look that everyone remembers him looking as. I don’t know much about the context of why he cut his hair so short but it’s a good look on him. Lennon would have been 80 today.

    The greatest sophomore follow up record turns 25 years old. Oasis’ “What’s the Story Morning Glory” ages like a fine wine, sounds as thunderous today as it did 25 years ago.

    There’s so much cool oozing from this vintage photo in Italy.  Vespas, lambretta’s and fellas dressed in Continental suits. Bellissimo!

    Amazing photo taken in Finland. I don’t know the context of all the suit jackets hanging above this street but it definitely creates a moody atmosphere, like a setting from a slightly dystopian novel.
