Go for John Lennon's solo work...wonderful messages! I'd say to start with either the Imagine album or Plastic Ono Band

most of the song is: "But February made me shiver" Buddy Holly died on February 3, 1959, in a plane crash in Iowa during a snowstorm. Its rumored that the name of the plane was: American Pie. "But something touched me deep inside, The day the music died." The same plane crash that killed Buddy Holly also tragically took the lives of Richie Valens ("La Bamba") and The Big Bopper ("Chantilly Lace.") Since all three were so prominent at the time, February 3, 1959, became known as "The Day The Music Died." "Bad news on the doorstep... I couldn't take one more step. I can't remember if I cried When I read about his widowed bride" Holly's recent bride was pregnant when the crash took place; she had a miscarriage shortly afterward.
