John Lennon / Plastic Ono Band
₺2,400.00 TRY
John Lennon / Plastic Ono Band—raw, stripped, and deeply personal.
Released in December 1970 alongside Yoko Ono’s parallel work, this record marked a turning point. Described by Lennon as “the best thing I’ve ever done,” it captures a moment of emotional exposure following the breakup of The Beatles and his new life with Yoko.
This volume traces that shift—through first-hand commentary from John & Yoko, collaborators, and those close to them. Letters, artworks, and photographs build a layered portrait of a period defined by honesty, vulnerability, and reinvention.
At the center is the Plastic Ono Band—less a fixed group, more a fluid concept. With contributions from names like Eric Clapton, Ringo Starr, George Harrison, and Billy Preston, it became a space for experimentation and truth-telling.
Songs like Mother, Working Class Hero, and God serve as entry points into Lennon’s inner world—his relationships, beliefs, and search for meaning.
A book about music, yes—
but more so about what happens when an artist chooses to be completely unguarded.
