Rolling Stone 500 Greatest Albums of All Time - Rated 223/500!
Digitally remastered from original mixes by Yoko Ono and engineers Allan Rouse at Abbey Road Studios and George Marino at Avatar Studios in New York.
Lennon is one of rock and rolls most important visionaries and "Imagine" is a rock classic no collection should be without. No one needs to be reminded of the historical significance of this masterpiece from one of music's most influential artists.
"After the primal-scream therapy of Plastic Ono Band Lennon softened up on his second solo album. There is still the stinging "Gimme Some Truth" and Lennon's evisceration of Paul McCartney, "How Do You Sleep?" both featuring George Harrison on guitar. But there is also the aching soul of "Jealous Guy" and the irresistible "Oh Yoko!" Imagine is self-consciously luminescent, pointedly embraceable. Lennon said of the title track, "Anti-religious, anti-nationalistic, anti-conventional, anti-capitalistic, but because it is sugar-coated it is accepted. . . . Now I understand what you have to do. Put your political message across with a little honey." - www.rollingstone.com
