I read an interview with those people involved in the making of "Gimme Some Truth" box set (producers and mixing engineers) and they hinted that a serie of reissues are yet to come. They thought Yoko selected "Imagine" first because it was his most commercial album. Then "Plastic Ono Band". The order is going similar to the remixed albums released in 2000.

What a comprehensive brilliant review. You are so honest caring and sincere.

Might be worth tracking down the 2002 remix of Mind Games then - as it sounds good to my ears. There was also a 2005 re-release of Walls And Bridges with some of the tracks remixed so probably worth tracking those down if you still can.

Great review. I have both the 2 LP and the Deluxe Set ordered. This video got me excited so now I’m counting down the days. You only get to hear a song for the first time once, but with these remixes it’s like getting to hear everything for the first time again.

Being "in the mood" for Yoko Ono's "singing" is like being in the mood for having Wisdom Teeth removed without anesthetic. Can't remember ever being in that mood.

Good morning Andrew thank you very much for this honest and rich review. Two things I want to ask: Plastic Ono Band was always a very raw and live album for me, so the raw studio mix sounds really interesting. The Plastic Ono Band Live Appearance in London 1969 that appears on Some Time In New York City really would fit to this deluxe edition of Plastic Ono Band, doesn´t it? It´s a shame that the Plastic Ono Band did not perform live more often, this open band concept was made for live appearances. Then, second, I am still really skeptical about this amount of mixes. Do you enjoy this amount or is it simply a bit overwhelming, not just in a postive way? Thanks again for your wonderful channel :)

Great review ! 🇸🇪🇸🇪🇸🇪

Well, that was wonderful. I guess I'll buy Gimme Some Truth now that it isn't redundant. So I've got a couple queries for you: - How do you think the new remix of the straight album compares to the 2000s one? - Every track on the album plus the 3 singles are kept together on all but the Jams CD and BluRay, ie there are 14 tracks per CD? - Have you checked which songs from Anthology or the Home Tapes disk carry over? What have you found, if you have? - If you were going to be stuck on a desert island for a year right after you read this but had to bring one version of Plastic Ono Band with you, which would you pick at this very moment? Anyhow, keep up the wonderful work! Hope all's well, Justin

That version of Mother in Nowhere Boy was part of the Lennon Anthology, disc one called Ascot. There’s another version out there on Spotify on the Lennon Box set.

Thank you for this this review Andrew Dixon. You talked about the edit in 'Working Class Hero'. That song was one of the first songs of Lennon's that zapped me right between the ears. I had it as the B side of a single. Probably 'Imagine' was the A side, it was 1975 or so. I am allowed to forget some details in life. What is this notable edit? Where does it come in the song? And what is thought to be edited out?

@AndrewDixonMusic

It's when the 3rd verse comes in "When they tortured and scared you..." at about 1 minute 22 and then towards the end of that verse it reverts back to the original take. I think John missed a verse out in his otherwise "best" take and wanted this verse from another take editing in.

I listened to this album over and over when it was first released.

Thanks for this! Great watch and very helpful in making a decision to purchase this box set. My question is based in your GST Love version vs this remix of Love: I'd have thought they are actually the same mixes, seeing as there is barely 7 months between the two releases and this boxset was quietly mentioned in the book to the GST edition. Are they actually two different mixes, or is the mastering what has made the difference? Nerdy question...but that's why I love compering the mixes!

If you're getting distortion in the song Isolation, it's most likely a mastering defect. Bet it's on all copies not just yours.

Well done! I listened to the Ultimate Mix of Working Class Hero and yes that edit is so obvious now. Has there ever been an explanation as to why there was an edit? It sounds like a take from another recording studio. It just looses so much presence and life. Oh well. I'm glad I have the box on order. Can't wait to dive in as you have.

I have a little question : in this review, you said that the 2LP and the 2CD didn’t have the same album outtakes, and I've seen that the tracklisting is not the same on the inner sleeve and on the label.

@@AndrewDixonMusic I found it on meanmrmayos video I just wanted to see how big it was (I couldn’t find the measurements of it in the description) lol

Haha yes I’m a mad type. I only buy it for the outtakes. That’s the reason i pray that before I leave this earth that Apple comes to their senses and releases all of the Beatles outtakes catalog either in an online subscription model if they’d like some revenue or donate it to a public foundation like the library of Congress to preserve it for future generations but accessible to the public. Beatles are now part of history and keeping these tapes locked up makes no sense. Who wouldn’t want to hear take one of in my life or nowhere man. It’s way overdue to do this. Instead apple releases a take here and there at the whim of some person. Other bands treat their fans better. Dylan and stones have released everything in their vaults. It’s time the Beatles do this now.

do you get to keep all the version's or do they want them back lol , My Mayo got sent the CD and Vinyl too. lucky buggers :)

@@AndrewDixonMusic review was amazing and the remixes sound amazing , i was listening to the original release for the first time. God is such a amazing powerful track as is Mother.

My one question: So how does My Mummy’s Dead (Elements Mix) work

@AndrewDixonMusic

The album version has extra (something I'm not sure what!) applied to it to make it sound even more lo fi than it was. On the elements mix it's presented in it's still lo-fi form, but not with any additional lo-fi-ness applied to it!

@@AndrewDixonMusic so they put like a surface noise/analog filter on it? That’s hilarious

Do you believe that the tracks from Plastic Ono Band were the same mixes that were on the recent Gimme Some Truth box set, as it was only recent? I can’t imagine they would have remixed those 4 tracks again?

Hi Keith, definitely new remixes, as I mention in this video (with proof and reasons why) when discussing "Love"

@@AndrewDixonMusic Yes, I should have saved my comments until I'd seen the whole review!! I find it surprising that new mixes are created so soon after existing ones. Either smart marketing by EMI or just Yoko being thorough!

Genial esse álbum

Probably you didn´t read my question: would you think it would have been a good idea to include live recordings from the Plastic Ono Band to this Deluxe Set (maybe a remixed version from the UNICEF Gig with George Harrison in 1969)? Thank you very much :)

I'm sure some people would like them there, I'm happy for it to be without, I'm happy for this to be a studio only set. That's purely my personal preference though.

@@AndrewDixonMusic Thank you, Andrew. I really appreciate it that you take so much time and energy to do these videos. I see your point in doing the Deluxe Set a set containing the studio work by John around this album. When they will do a deluxe set with Some Time in NYC, then I will have my live recordings. Just as I wrote earlier, whenever I see for example John Live in Toronto 1969, I wish that he would have performed more often. And as rare as his performances are, I hope that someday we will get a deluxe live set with all the well known stuff (Live in NYC 1972, UNICEF 1969) and the lesser known performances (Live Rally Michigan 1971, Sir Lew Grade performance 1975, the Elton John Gig 1974, and so on). Last question: did you see that Dark Horse Records put a Joe Strummer album out?

@@lukasweichert9391 A deluxe live set would be very interesting, but it's such a shame that such a thing is even possible, it really hits home home just how little live work John did without The Beatles! I did see the Dark Horse release, hoping they are going to announce a George All Things Must Pass release soon.
