Discuss the influence of John Lennon's post-Beatles music and the impact of his death on popular musicians who followed. Please refer to specific songs/artists/styles in your response. You'll need 150-200 words at least to cover the topic briefly, but thoroughly.

The Beatles are regarded to be the greatest ever rock band in the history of music.  The album, " Abbey Road", is often cited among the all time greatest albums. The group comprised of John Lennon, the lead vocalist, Sir Paul McCartney, vocalist and guitarist, Ringo Starr, drums and percussion and George Harrison as bass guitarist. Some of their tracks such as Yesterday, Imagine, Something and  Revolution are immortal.

The band enjoyed unprecedented and unparalleled success and Lennon became a prominent public figure, for his unconventional ways, statements, public influence and fashion sense. It is rumored that, Lennon's affair and subsequently marriage to Uno was the prime reason which gave rise to tension among band members, most prominently creating a rift between him and McCartney.

Post the fallout, Lennon went solo and continued winning success and accolades until 1980, when he was assassinated. The event was mourned by public to such a magnitude that some could not bear the news and gave up their lives, whereas it left the music industry devastated. Major events were interrupted upon the knowledge of his death.

The Beatles inspired an entire generation of musicians. U2 cite them as one of their greatest inspirations besides Elvis Presley. Oasis impersonated The Beatles as a mark of respect, with Noel Gallagher sporting same hairstyle and donning Lennon's round sunglasses as a tribute to him in "Don't Look Back In Anger" video. The Verve's Richard Ashcroft cites The Beatles as his musical inspiration.

Many renowned musicians went on to claim that the Beatles were their sole inspiration behind taking up music as a profession.
