Rise Up!--The New Singers (1935)
Lennon on piano in the song. Considering he likely never touched a piano until he was well into his teens and never had one in his home until he was past 22, never took a lesson and couldn’t read music, the piano part is amazing. Both composition and performance.
Lyrics are more often an afterthought, so I ignore these. Nice use of his voice, but the piano is the hook for me. Compelling.
