John would have done this very differently. It’s very upsetting that Yoko’s mere twelve tracks (vs. over Lennon songs, demos and mixes) have been relegated to one disc &#; and that they are on BluRay, a format which many people do not own. John would have done the opposite! He would have released seven Yoko CDs, and put his own material at the back, on one disc. The Yoko tracks are glorious! It’s amazing to hear some of these vintage Yoko utterances after 50+ years!
(See track listing below).
Yoko’s POB sessions…
Much of the greatness of all the POB tracks and sessions comes down to Ringo’s drumming. John is noodling a lot on guitar, yet he somehow carries the songs without interfering with Yoko “doing her thing all over you”. Klaus Voormann is stellar on bass, always understanding exactly what

Yoko’s first solo album (a companion to John’s post-Beatles debut) was recorded shortly after their recording of Unfinished Music No. 1: Two Virgins. John’s original idea was to title his album Primal, and Yoko’s album Scream (they had attended Arthur Janov’s Primal Scream therapy sessions six months prior). They ultimately decided to self- title the albums, with each of their names followed by ‘Plastic Ono Band’. Both albums were released on the same day, December 11,
In Japan, John&#;s album was titled ジョンの魂 (John no Tamashii), John&#;s Soul and Yoko&#;s was called Yoko&#;s Heart. Album credits on John&#;s record include Wind: Yoko Ono.
The cover photo, taken by their assistant and friend Dan Richter with an Instamatic camera features Yoko leaning on John’s lap as he rests on the ground with his back against a huge oak tree at their home, Tittenhurst Park in Ascot. John’s POB albu
