John
Lennon/Plastic Ono Band is the debut solo studio album by English
musician John Lennon. Backed by the Plastic Ono Band (consisting of
Lennon on guitar, Ringo Starr on drums, and Klaus Voormann on bass), it
was released by Apple Records on 11 December 1970 in tandem with the
similarly titled album by his wife, Yoko Ono. At the time of its issue,
John Lennon/Plastic Ono Band received mixed reviews overall, but later
came to be widely regarded as Lennon's best solo album.
Co-produced
by Lennon, Ono and Phil Spector, it followed Lennon's recording of three
experimental releases with Ono and a live album from the 1969 version
of the Plastic Ono Band. John Lennon/Plastic Ono Band contains a largely
raw production sound with songs heavily influenced by Lennon's recent
primal therapy. Its lyrics reflect Lennon's personal issues and includes
themes of child-parent abandonment and psychological suffering. The
tracks were recorded in September and October 1970 at Abbey Road Studios
in London, simultaneously with Ono's similarly titled solo album.
John
Lennon/Plastic Ono Band peaked at number eight on the UK Albums Chart
and number six on the US Billboard 200. In 1987, Rolling Stone ranked it
fourth in its list "The 100 Best Albums of the Last Twenty Years" and
in 2012, ranked it number 23 in their list of the "500 Greatest Albums
of All Time". It was voted number 244 in Colin Larkin's All Time Top
1000 Albums (2000). In 2000, the album was remixed with two bonus
tracks, "Power to the People" and "Do the Oz". The album's 2021 Ultimate
Mixes reissue, in the eight-disc Ultimate Collection box set, features
159 previously unreleased mixes, demos, outtakes, and isolated track
elements.
