Em outubro de 2015 John Wiston Lennon faria 75 anos. Garoto irriquieto, passou sua infância perambulando por Liverpool e como morava próximo ao orfanato chamado de Strawberry Field, adorava participar das festas de verão que aconteciam lá. Ao escutar os primeiros acordes da banda do Exército da Salvação chamava sua Tia Mimi dizendo:”Rápido, Mimi. Vamos nos atrasar.” Costumava tocar com seus colegas Pete Shotton e Ivan Vaughan nas matas atrás do orfanato que batizou de Strawberry Fields.
