This can probably have its own dedicated thread now that an official website has been launched.
They have not been overly adventurous so farAs its a Live album (from 1972) which I've never owned, I wonder how adventurous, if at all, they'd be with a surround mix? assuming there is one. I'm still very likely to get it though.
Its been a while since I've had the LP, but IIRC, the first disc is a studio album. Only the second disc is live.As its a Live album (from 1972) which I've never owned, I wonder how adventurous, if at all, they'd be with a surround mix? assuming there is one. I'm still very likely to get it though.

I had hoped for Walls and Bridges (especially since it even had a 70ās Quad release) but they threw a few of those songs into the GIMME SOME TRUTH box; so Iām afraid now itāll never happen. But Iām curios how theyāll mix the live show with Zappa, hopefully theyāll make it interesting!Yes, a full 10-track studio album (with quite a few wonderful gems, although musically it's definitely not the highlight of Lennon's career), and three long "Live jam" cuts. There could be a LOT of unreleased material in this one.

If the studio tracks were recorded with Spector at the controls, that 16 track multitrack copy Zappa gave Lennon from the live show will likely be the best recording in the whole project.I had hoped for Walls and Bridges (especially since it even had a 70ās Quad release) but they threw a few of those songs into the GIMME SOME TRUTH box; so Iām afraid now itāll never happen.

Its hard to believe they would release a deluxe STINYC and not release WAB which is a superior album IMO.I'm pretty confident they'll do similar box sets with "ultimate mixes" of all the Lennon solo albums over the next few years...

Its been so long since I've heard it. Her wailing during Cold Turkey sticks out in my memory. But I don't think that is the Zappa show. Someone tell me if I'm correct.Well I sure hope everyone's right here on the Walls and Bridges (my fav Lennon album!) First out in 1974, so maybe a couple years yet for a major 50th release box (will I hold up that long?)
On that live mix with Zappa, they could put Yoko's caterwauling iso'd in the center, then I could easily deal with it -Just saying, artistically speaking, not my cup o' tea.

That "encore" with the guitars left on droning feedback with her caterwauling (good choice of word) over it makes me laugh out loud. Zappa actually found a way to bring out the absurdity and funny there! Literally everything else I've heard from here makes me reach for the off switch.Well I sure hope everyone's right here on the Walls and Bridges (my fav Lennon album!)
