Eric Clapton on lead guitar, Klaus Voorman on bass, Ringo Starr on drums, recorded in October 1969 while Lennon was still officially a member of The Beatles. He officially quit within the month.
He told Paul and Ringo he quit in September and didn't "officially" quit for a long time for business reasons.
Thanks. I wondered who was playing guitar, knew it wasnt John. Should have guessed.
I thought it was 1970 they officially broke up? Their last album that year.
Didn’t know this. Great lineup 👍🏻
Masterpeace
Withdrawal is exactly like his anguished cries! Rip John one of one!
Nobody else could write like John Lennon or sing like John Lennon
I had a habit myself many years ago. It's absolutely soul destroying
this is one of John's best solo songs... gritty and catchy at the same time... there's an excellent black and white film that goes with this song
John was always as honest as human can be. A troubled time resulted in great music
Lennon was one of a kind!
John Lennon - Bob Dylan. My favorite lyric writers. The most obvious difference between them is Dylan writes very abstract lines that are often difficult to understand his true meaning that is always very deep. He tells incredible stories about others and social commentary mixed into the verses. John Lennon comes right to the point. He is the most HONEST writer I’ve ever heard. Very little questions as to the meaning of his songs. He says what he thinks/believes leaving little doubt as to the points he makes.
It was Bob Dylan who encouraged Lennon to write the way he does. I am certain that in the entire history of music nobody will ever exceed the pure brilliance of both their writings. I like to say they are the Number One Coolest Guy Ever- John Lennon. Dylan is a close second Coolest Guy Ever.
Dylan writes many different ways.
And if I am the Walrus is straight and to the pint, I want some of your drugs.
Glass Onion? Strawberry Fields?
Lennon has more abstract songs that he has love songs.
@@jvs333 Yes. He passed away a few years ago. I live in Up-State N.Y. now on my own 30 acres with nobody around. Love it.
@@jvs333 Sue.... Santa Ana Police Officer for 26 years. Happily Retired.
@@jvs333 Our house had so many people come and go for years, so many friends, not sure if I remember, what year? I was often out with girlfriends, gone a lot.
@@jvs333 Did you sign your name backwards on your artwork?
I remember it well. The Beatles were imploding.
Each one of them was recording their own material.
Some used within the group’s output (even though only one or two of them were there in the studio) and some as solo records.
Creativity of each of them was driving them apart and the moon was rising from the wrong horizon
Quite a band on this one - Ringo on drums, Eric Clapton (with Lennon) on guitar, and the bass is by Klaus Voormann, who was the cover artist of The Beatles Revolver album (for which he won a grammy).
INSTANT KARMA - WE ALL SHINE ON BY JOHN LENNON , AND OH YOKO BY JOHN LENNEN.🙏☮️🌎
great song! ♥
John proposed this song to the Beatles. Obviously no one wanted to put this out as a Beatles' product. The Beatles were still a wholesome group in the eyes of the general public. A song about heroin withdrawal was not going to down well. So, he just did it himself along with a few musical buddies.
Very interesting!
OK JM.... I now Officially Nominate you as The Coolest Reactor On TH-cam. Damn good selections.
I also recommend:
Mother
Working Class Hero
and
Happiness Is A Warm Gun.
I reacted to working class hero, check it out! JOHN IS VERY INSIGHTFUL!! | Working Class Hero - John Lennon (Reaction)

@JMBOY TV I found it, and am about to listen right now.
Thanks.
ooh I 2nd Happiness is a Warm Gun!
I like this man.
You've GOT to check out I Found Out from around the same time. It's basically proto-punk but it's really raw and honest but it's also really catchy and it's a great song.
It’s lyrical primal scream
Agree and I would add "Isolation" a little underrated and I think Sean did a version.
As it was released towards the end of '69, the BBC thought this was about reheated post-Christmas dinner. LOL
The BBC banned it because they didn't think that.
This songs has Eric Clapton on guitar - Lennon on Guitar, Ringo on drums, and their friend from Germany, Klaus Voorman on bass (Klaus did the Art covers for Revolver, and the later anthology albums) Heavy groove -drug withdrawl...
Live version of Cold Turkey on the Some Time In New York City album, actually recorded in London in December 1969, is worth checking out too. Absolutely brilliant, rocks hard and not quite as harrowing as the single version.
Also the version on Live Peace in Toronto
John heard about the music festival Live Peace Toronto. He called Eric Clapton, Klaus Voorman and Ringo. They hopped on a plane, made up a set list of oldies and rehearsed THIS SONG! Amazing work.
That was the dream
Now look at us. We need new dreamers to come along and make the dream come true.
Who else writes about going though heroin withdrawal?
He’s the only one two who merge Christmas and war and make it a classic holiday song.
If you liked this, try his I found out too.
This song does have a very modern feel to it, I'd love to hear a modern band cover it some time. Killer song, nice and punk-ish (am I using 'punk-ish' right? I haven't heard too much punk, but from what I know it's something like this).
I'd love to see a reaction to Every Night by Paul McCartney and Beware of Darkness by George Harrison.
This was one of the first songs John did after the Beatles but he put out solo songs before the Beatles broke up. There never really was an official break up, sort of. They could have always got back together and I am sure had John not been killed at 40 they would have. Maybe not to record music but to do a couple live shows. So sad John died so young.
NOW YOU'RE IN DEEP........ John Lennon is the only Human Being ever I place higher than Bob Dylan for the contents of his songs. You sure are in the fast lane of the best songs ever written. Consider it an education.
I suspect that you won't see this comment, but as someone who's just gone through the experience of cold turkey, I can say with absolute certainty that this song is a description of the truth. It involved more than the 36 hours of pain that he has in the song, for me anyway. But the core feeling of rolling in pain and every part of your body trying to get away is real. Credit to you for playing this song about a subject that is even worse today than it was then. Peace 💚
Timeless
I know a lot of people believe this is about withdrawal, I heard that he got sick from a turkey that was left out to long 😳
lennon's best post beatles record- if the subject matter had been different, it would have been massive- even eric clapton's good on it !
The abrasive guitar sound and the mood of the whole song belong to the era of post punk inthe late 70s and early 80s.
But wait, when I take a look again, this track was out in 1969!!!
You should hit the song highlighted in your thumbnail in your video, "Gimme Some Truth". Nuff said.)
Song about addiction...shitty situation but damn, Lennon is cool AF. Btw, great reaction. 👌
Nobody knows withdrawal symptoms Unless you've been through them
The first time I heard this on its release it blew me away. That was in the late 60's sitting in a pub. This song exemplifies why Lennon was superior to McCartney.
Withdrawls are HELL😢
"Come Together' is also a great one from 1969 about his heroin issues but probably more in the 'good bit' not the withdrawals.
Stay away from needle drugs , party kids !
Hi. you're young ..so just in case they don't say the phase Cold Turkey anymore..it means going off drugs..going cold turkey going without. Horribly cool song.✌yikes my comment was at the beginning of video.sorry ..obviously you knew the jist of the song. Thank you.
If you haven't done "Meat City" by Lennon yet, do yourself a favor and give it a listen. It rocks faster and harder than this one!
Lennon's heroine issues got very into his music... and his bowels
Hi, wanted to let you know I have enjoyed your reactions. I would like to suggest you look into some 70's progressive, starting with Jethro Tull or Yes. Good Job!
I AM A HUGE FAN of any one who would react to this tune. good for you!! MAKE SURE to check out "GOD", and "WORKING CLASS HERO", as well. if you haven't....
Thanks! I have actually reacted to both of those awesome songs!
@@JMBOYTV great!! i'll have to watch them. all of the beatles had significant solo careers.....yeah, even ringo.
A "Special Request".... that I am certain you will love JM, You've done several songs I have suggested and I really appreciate it. I'm happy that you have really liked all of them... SO, I was just watching this and you will be happy if you fill my special request and do it ASAP..... PHUCKING AWESOME PERFORMANCE....Samba Pa Ti - Santana (Live in Mexico)
“Samba Pa Ti” - “Dance Party”. Carlos Santana……One of the all time greatest most iconic instrumentals ever done by anyone. I have had the extreme pleasure to see him do it live 4 times. It fills the entire crowd with JOY and everyone is dancing. I Guaranty you will say it’s one of your all time favorite songs and get up and dance…. This is the best version.....ENJOY......Samba Pa Ti - Santana (Live in Mexico)
