Reviews & Discussion
Released simultaneously with a John Lennon album of the same name, this is Yoko at her most krautrock-ish. You heard right. This sounds like she'd been tuned into some serious German shit! Her vocals -- usually known for being screechy, freakish, and, some would say, unlistenable -- can also be hynotic, dreamy and creepy. Ringo Starr cranks up some classic motorik riddims that showcase why the dude was the most underrated person in The Beatles. John Lennon creates some of his most abrasive blues based guitar riffs, and Klaus Voorman backs up the chug with deep minimal basslines. Don't overlook this one if you like your Faust, Can & Amon Duul albums. Guaranteed to surprise your friends.
