Every John Lennon album should have a version with all the production cut out. A real genius, beautiful voice and guitar work.

@@thefonzkiss thankyou, I vaguely remember that release when it came out, but at the time I was raising 2 children and paying off a house, so it was beyond my price! I did buy the ‘onceuponatime’ cd at the time, I loved it!

John is the depth of the Beatles

Love it! So fresh. I think nowadays big productions are not always the best version.

Wow! This really lets you see the genius of his songwriting.

Cause it's John

The Strokes made a career out of this Lennon riff...

I would love to hear a complete unplugged version. Just the acoustic and the vocal from the completed track.

It sounds like a Nilsson song in this form. It also sounds a bit like "Sweet City Woman."

I learned to like the studio version as well. I apreciate Elton's piano work and harmonies specially. But man, the dramatic sax and mid 70 coke-ass feeling production doesn't fit In the beautiful composition I heard In this demo.

To paraphrase Fr Ted, they should have lost the sax solo 😊

Wish he had released the album/single version with solo vocal rather than as duet with Elton. I bought "Walls and Bridges" when it came out, loved it and still do. Was buying Elton's albums at the time also. Even though it went to #1, in my opinion this song would have been better without Elton's voice being so prevalent.

@thefonzkiss

2 ай бұрын

It’s not prevalent. People don’t even know he’s on it unless they’re told. It’s not a duet either, a duet is two people taking turns to sing. Elton is backing up Lennon’s vocal.

Эта версия гораздо лучше альбомной, которая мне никогда не нравилась.

Still have original cassettes taped in'88 off the radio, The Lost Lennon Tapes syndicated/hosted by Eliot Mintz This was on one

Walls should get an expanded release as there are a lot of demos and run throughs of the songs. Prefer the final take with Elton's vocals out of the mix.

All too human

Excepting Plastic Ono I'm not a fan of Lennon's solo work. I think most of it (not all) is uninspired, poorly arranged and produced trash. Then I hear this and am reminded he's a genius song writer. I'm guessing it's pure inspiration, though I suppose he could have heard something that brought him to this chord sequence, rhythm and melody. Doesn't sound like anything else he's done and that's quite a trick after writing songs for 15 years or whatever it was at that point.

Um, so where is YOUR song catalogue mate, or are you just your garden variety know-nothing critic? It's one thing to not particularly care for some of his work, it's another thing to label it as "trash". Oh, and no, you didn't redeem yourself with your attempt at walking it back, if anything it just provided proof that have no idea what you are talking about.
