Elvis Presley was Lennon's first hero of note... a friend played him "Heartbreak Hotel" early in 1956, and Lennon said later "It was so beautiful, I couldn't speak." When The Beatles met Presley in 1965, Lennon reportedly told him to his face "Before you, there was nothing."
Lennon also spoke highly of his college friend Stuart Sutcliffe (the original Beatles bass player, who tragically died at 21 from a brain hemorrhage), and later admired artists like Michel Duchamp.

Was john Lennon disapointed when the beatles broke up?
At the time of their break-up John was not disappointed that the Beatles had broken up as he resented all of the insinuations and blame that the other members had towards Yuko Ono and how (they believed) she had influenced John Lennon negatively towards the group. However, John Lennon was disappointed that his friendship with the members of the Beatles was damaged with each member carrying around hurt and resentment. After their breakup there were lawsuits concerning the royalties, from both the music and publishing rights, which added to the anger/resentment. There is no doubt that John Lennon cared for each member of the Beatles and that each member played a pivotal role in the dissolution of the Beatles. Fortunately, they left behind years of exceptional music including their own Solo recordings. GREAT QUESTION by the way.
