Lennon's "Happy Xmas" Is 40 Years Old



An indicator of how time flies (and aging) is the realization that John Lennon's "Happy Xmas" (War Is Over) is now 40 years old.

The song was recorded at the Record Plant Studios in New York City in October 1971, with the participation of Phil Spector.

The song came out during the 1971 Christmas season, which was the last Christmas of my high school years in Hawthorne, California.

It was originally a Viet Nam War protest song, but it has since become a Christmas standard over the years.
