[In Blue Hawaii]

POB

The more I listen to 'Walls & Bridges', the better it sounds. I stole my quote from 'Old Dirt Road'.

[strawb3rryfi3ldsfor3ver]

I voted Imagine. I reeeeeeeally need to get Plastic Ono Band, though. =O

'Plastic Ono Band' is sheer raw genius, as bare-bones as it gets (even with Spector producing). As one reviewer said, "He put his balls on the tracks, and out of sheer respect, the train ground to a halt." The results of this kind of album would have been absolutely disastrous if it were any talent less than Lennon's.

 I think one day people are going to realize the sheer brilliance that is Walls and Bridges.

 Hope it is remastered this year...

walls would be better released in its entirety...

[Rowdy]

Not sure what you mean by that......but it has been confirmed that Yoko is working on that album for a rerelease this Fall.........I'm guessing it will include whatever leftover Walls tracks from Menlove Avenue that weren't also on Anthology..........that then leaves the two live albums and Sometime in New York City/Live Jam in need of reissue.

Edit: fixed typo.

The Ocean Child From Hell said she's releasing one reissue/year. 'Walls/Bridges' is next in line like someone else noted.

plastic ono

[Bobber]

Plastic Ono Band by a mile.

[raxo]

Define-tely Walls And Bridges

[Mean_Mr_Mustard]

Oops, I just put Plastic Ono ahead of the pack.

POB is his best album, I have no doubt. In fact I consider it the best album by any ex Beatle. And my favourite Beatle is Paul!! LOL

[Geoff]

Overall I think Imagine. The best tracks on POB are better (I Found Out, Look At Me, God, Love), but the self pity of some of the others (Mother, Working Class Hero) drags that one down for me. Of course the petty vindictiveness of How Do You Sleep? is a blot on Imagine, too.

 " Walls And Bridges " (clap)

" Walls And Bridges " (clap)

Definitely worth it for "Bless You" and "#9 Dream."  

[DaveRam]

Think # 9 Dream is the best solo song John wrote Geoff  (rolling2) i really love his vocal throughout Walls And Bridges

Agree with you both (and others too).Walls And Bridges.

[Geoff]

I prefer the rehearsal takes of Walls and Bridges material on side two of Menlove Avenue to the finished album: less production and more soul, if that's the right word. I think Mind Games and Walls and Bridges would both be better albums if you stripped away a lot of the production. Rock and Roll, too, actually.

I somehow agree.Both are great albums and with less production everyone would pay more attention to those awesome melodies he was composing along with amazing lyrics.I don't like the Rock And Roll album much, though.
