  • John & Yoko Some Time In New York City

    John & Yoko Some Time In New York City
    Jan 5 2026

    This past Fall, John Lennon & Yoko Ono's only son, Sean Ono Lennon, released the exhaustive Power To The People 12 disc expanded version of his parent's criminally ignored 1972 radical feminist, agitprop, street wise, cutting edge, urban soul, ghetto funk rock masterpiece Some Time In New York City,

    With the exception of ONE SONG

    The one song that has become the ELEPHNANT'S MEMORY BAND in the room.

    Join us as we explore Sean Ono Lennon's visionary Evolution Documentaries for 9 of the 10 songs from his parents often misunderstood first proper rock n roll album together.

    and...

    We let the pieces fall where they may in rescuing the often censored controversial track from obscurity by John & Yoko to complete the missing piece of the puzzle of Sean Ono Lennon's audio love letter to Mom & Dad.

    Which brings us to the somewhat gratuitous F-bombs dropped by John & Yoko while recording this Masterclass In Agitprop, necessitating the dreaded "E" for EXPLICIT rating.

    Listener Discretion Is Advised.

    And...

    Before you get offended, please remember, it's right there in the name of the podcast.

    WE LOVE YOU!

    "LOVE LOVE LOVE" - John Lennon

    "WAR IS OVER! (if you want it)" - John Lennon

    "Imagine" - Yoko One
