Walls and Bridges [CD]

John Lennon - Walls and Bridges [CD]

By the summer of 1974, John had been living apart from Yoko for nearly a year. Quartered in Los Angeles, he entered a boisterous spell tagged Lennon’s Lost Weekend. Like its predecessor, Mind Games, the new album would be self-produced. As to the musicians, among familiar names like Jim Keltner, Klaus Voormann and Nicky Hopkins were luminary guests that included Nilsson and the hottest rock star of the moment, Elton John. It was Elton who spotted the chart-topping potential of “Whatever Gets You Thru The Night,” a storming track to which he contributes. Indeed, he won his friendly bet that this song would be Lennon’s first solo #1, for which his “price” would be a guest appearance by John at Elton’s Madison Square Garden show. Using the 2010 remaster, this Super High Material CD offers more clarity, depth and definition of sound. Included is the 2010-edition booklet, inner bag and white booklet with Japanese translations of the lyrics. 1.Going Down On Love [Remastered 2010], 2.Whatever Gets You Thru The Night, 3.Old Dirt Road [Remastered 2010], 4.What You Got [Remastered 2010], 5.Bless You, 6.Scared [Remastered 2010] 7.#9 Dream, 8.Surprise Surprise (Sweet Bird Of Paradox) [Remastered 2010], 9.Steel And Glass, 10.Beef Jerky [Remastered 2010], 11.Nobody Loves You (When You're Down And Out) [Remastered 2010], 12.Ya Ya [Remastered 2010]
