   Critics who have called Two Sides of the Moon an embarrassment or a total disaster may have missed the point. Moon gathered 60 his best friends in the music biz ( including Joe Walsh who was recording down the hall), and spent $200,000 of MCA's money on this huge rock n roll prank. Only his sober cover of the Beatles's "In My Life" doesn't belong in the party and it's hard not to think he had just four more years to live while listening to this.

John Lennon contributed guitar and vocals to "Move Over Mrs L", a song Lennon wrote for Yoko.
