It's a legendary birthday.
Leee John, the leader of the group Imagination, celebrates his 40 years of career.
The group's track record is impressive with 30 million records sold.
The party takes place on Tuesday evening at the Olympia, with sequins as the dress code, of course!
He is nicknamed Doctor John: to last 40 years of career, the singer with the charismatic voice Leee John adopts an irreproachable lifestyle and distills his health advice to his team.
Lots of sport, meditation and daily care for her unique high-pitched voice.
"I train a lot and I have been practicing for a few years, in the morning, a form of meditation called the Shingon, a breathing exercise. I need this moment of relaxation, before the storm", he confides to the microphone from Europe 1.
The British band, named after John Lennon's song, made a name for itself worldwide thanks to its second album "In the heat of the night", released in 1982, which featured several hits such as "Just an illusion" and "Music and lights".

Solo Imagination
Since 1995, Leee John alone has held the memory of this mythical group since the group broke up that year.
But the singer has no regrets and keeps only the positive, another of his life philosophies, no stress and optimism: "Once upon a time, three boys... who became very well known after a huge tube and a monumental tour... And they lived happily!"

However, Leee John will not blow out his candles alone: he has invited several guests on stage, such as his longtime friend Plastic Bertrand, with whom he recently released a title.
"We like each other a lot, we both like to enjoy life. We wanted to write this song to give energy to our fans, in these complicated times".
A disco song obviously, take out the sequins and the hips!
