Classic Albums (The Making Of) / John Lennon - Plastic Ono Band 1970 (documentary)

John Lennon - Plastic Ono Band (1970)









John Lennon/Plastic Ono Band is the debut solo album by English rock musician John Lennon. It was released in 1970 after Lennon had issued three experimental albums with Yoko Ono and Live Peace in Toronto 1969, a live performance in Toronto credited to the Plastic Ono Band. The album was recorded simultaneously with Yoko Ono's debut avant garde solo album Yoko Ono/Plastic Ono Band at Ascot Sound Studios and Abbey Road Studios using the same musicians and production team, and featured nearly identical cover artwork. John Lennon/Plastic Ono Band is generally considered one of Lennon's finest solo albums, documenting with honesty and artistic integrity his emotional and mental state at that point in his career. In 1987, as part of their 20th anniversary, Rolling Stone magazine ranked it No. 4 on "The 100 Best Albums of the Last Twenty Years." In 2012, Rolling Stone ranked it No. 23 on their The 500 Greatest Albums of All Time list.
