Description
Compiled as part of the 2020 Ultimate Mixes project overseen by Yoko Ono and Sean Ono Lennon with Paul Hicks at Abbey Road, Gimme Some Truth. distills John Lennon’s solo voice into a sharp 2LP set. You get the righteous bite of Gimme Some Truth, and the stadium-stomp snare of Instant Karma! that still makes you grin. Listen for the breath before the second verse of Jealous Guy; the intimacy lands.
This pressing gives the songs room to breathe, so space opens around the piano and the low end sits deeper without smothering the midrange. File it next to George Harrison’s early 70s work and the lineage clicks, but this plays leaner, more direct, very Melbourne kitchen-radio friendly on a Sunday. If you prefer the couch to the crate-dig, you can buy John Lennon records online here.
Sequencing flows well across the four sides, making it an easy front-to-back spin or a quick dip for favourites. As an overview it reads honest and human, protest and lullaby in fair balance. Longtime listeners get clarity without losing grit, and newer ears get the songs in their best light.
Order online now or swing past our Preston shop to pick it up.
