Andrew Dixon had a you tube video of some of the secret things inside this box set. It was quite interesting and a must watch for someone buying this set.
I must admit if John did a shit on a plate and called it an album, I'd buy it. We've got so little of him as a solo artist so everything should be appreciated.
Great review as always. Don't know if you've noticed there's also hidden tracks on the CDs, Just read around the edge of the CDs + if you have a Infa-red torch you can also seen hidden messages all over the Complete Set
One can tell Yoko put the book together, or had major influence. Had Lennon lived, and got his head straight, this new edition would have looked much different, I think.
I think is Lennon's best. Criminally under rated. Why I think it's better? It's impeccably produced unlike the Spector previous albums and the awful wall of sound, and unlike Walls and Bridges which is heavily over produced. The live version of Walls and Bridges contained in one side of Menlove Avenue are the ones to go to. Seriously, Aisumasen, I know I know, Out the blue, Mind Games, One day at a time, Meat City, You are here. All these phenomenal songs.
John's POB was his best. Imagine a close second. My Favorite but not his best. Walls and Bridges. Underrated. Mind Games has its moments. Title Track is one of his best. I always felt John Voice should be right out front like POB. Bring on Lucie should be played loud along with Meat City it Rocks. Out of the Blue and I know are great as well. John's Box Sets are done really well.
@@catsofsherman1316 yes agreed, though i never warmed to John's falsetto on 'One day at a time' but 'Mind games' was my first John Lennon album so - i love it all really.
@@frommetoyou1981 One Day at a Time was a big reason I couldn't play this album for friends. Then even worse, Intuition on the other side. Don't ever make fun of Paul's granny songs again John.
Hi Great you got a set up front. I'm looking forward to 12 July. Up till now I always listen to the 2002 CD. I am curious if this version does tops that. Enjoy listening. Take care.
To get full benefit from this wonderful box set - buy an ultra violet torch which will review lots of extra content. See Andrew Dixon’s brilliant vlog on all things Beatles.
@@hoibsh21 of course he does!! He has exquisite taste in music (for the most part lol)! There was a gentleman who replied to a comment I made the other day saying "I can't take a man wearing a Genesis shirt seriously" I thought to myself, what an absurd thing to say... So I was just humouring myself with this one. Slainte!
listened to this set about 6 times...and the more i hear it, the more its getting on my nerves !, Lennon singing about "yoko" or "people" is doing my head in !
I bought it many decades ago when it was so poorly regarded it was on the mfp , music for pleasure, cheapo label. Amazing its now morphed into an expensive box set for the same music. Hope the remix and other versions live up to the cost and allow the music to come across better as its not his best album. Also, crazy to think you need to buy an ultra violet torch to read all the text and find out whats on the disks!
How timely! I just picked a copy an Apple iPhone vinyl copy at an antique shop for eight bucks. I figured for the price of a beer it was a good buy. I’ll either like it or miss that beer!😂
Has it changed your opinion at all Barry? I remember in a recent video you said you weren't much of a fan of John Lennon's solo work after 'Plastic ono band' & 'Imagine'?
I respect Lennon for his contribution to music and I love the 'plastic ono band' album, but I feel a lot of his solo work is just sub par. Love two or three tracks on this, but not much. It is a fantastic set though if you are a fan.
Mind Games deluxe. Album set. Love the elemental mixes and evolution mixes, can you tell me how to access the Easter egg video content on the Blu rays as it’s doing my head in. Help me if you can, I'm feeling down Won't you please, please help me, help me, help me, ooh.
John Lennon was a singular talent, however the manner of his death has amplified his solo career beyond its true measure. He was a good solo artist, but not comparable to Paul McCartney or George Harrison. It looks like they have just found an admittedly impressive way, to sell more John Lennon.
Let's be straight up honest here. When did queenbe Yoko ever care about protecting Lennons legacy after he died ?. Just the money 💵 she can continue to make from him !.....
I AM a HUGE Beatles Fan - but in the cold light of day, HIS solo output was far below Paul's in terms of quality and quantity. I like MindGames the song, and - of course - another 9 or 10 of his 1970s output, but after the Beatles he simply never reached anything like those heights again - after 1974, certainly. Just my view - sorry if it offends. IMHO Only McCartney's Band On The Run truly stood comparison with The Beatles' albums.....and certainly Lennon loved that album. Still hard to believe that when they broke up they were aged 27 to 30 - what might they have done TOGETHER in the 70s ?!?!
I don't see the need for all this fancy stuff for an album with just one good song, unlike the new Black Sabbath Tony Martin's era boxset with 4 amazing albums with 97% of good songs and a much cheaper price.
I’m familiar with the song Mind Games but nothing else from this album. Like his Beatles band mates John’s post Fab Four albums left me largely unimpressed. Almost none of John, Paul and George’s solo work approached the quality of their Beatles output. They were definitely greater than the sum of their parts.
for me its only worth buying for 3 cds i dont care for those elemental mixes and the evolution documentarys its far too overpriced for what it is other than that mind games is a fine album great title track and a shout out for i know i know
I'd like to know the reason apart from money,why do we keep getting all this deluxe crap that only fools would bother with for the price they cost,there not for me.😢
@@classicalbum Of a boxed set not due out for another month? Yes, Andrew Dixon did it as well before you. If the JL estate keep doing this, ir'll get leaked before its proper release date. Anyway, there's lots going on - picture of John on the cd's, look at the same cd under ultraviolet light and the picture changes to Yoko. Then there's the 6 hidden tracks. Then there's the weird morse code that the boxed set came package in. Who konws what else? Still really looking forward to it!!!! JUst got to get saving my pennies, and quick!! Cheers!!
My own opinion is these bands waited way too long to release these type of sets.Most of the core fans are either too old,if still alive,and just aren't interested in spending an arm and leg for these sets.
I’m a Lennon guy all the way. John Lennon is the beatles as far as I’m concerned. However, there came a point where he just lost it. By 73 he was washed and out of ideas. Plastic ono and imagine are amazing. After those it was all mediocre. 3 to 4 strong cuts from new york city, mind games and walls/bridges is about what you get. ‘The luck of the Irish’ on new york city is a beautiful song though
@@classicalbum absolutely. Good point. This was a really cool release for the fans. It is a very nice box set and I am looking forward to hearing the new mix
Yoko is 91 years old. Sean will be the main beneficiary of this and future Lennon estate releases. He's a legitimate artist in his own right and a hell of a guitar player.
@@strothermartin5368 Indeed. The truth is he has tried before to get some of his late dads money from her. But she refuses to give hin a single penny !..
So Yoko attempts yet once again to create a silk purse from a sow 's ear. Sorry, this is a cash grab. I remember when this was released in late 1973 and it SUCKED THEN!!!
@catsofsherman1316 I'm not crazy about his solo stuff apart from the first album. These album's are ok, but I don't love them, I just like them. I like a few songs from this one, but I'm more interested in the packaging itself. He never made anything that even touched that first album
My opinion of Lennon's solo stuff still holds. I love the packaging and content, but this album is just ok apart from a spattering of tunes. He never made anything that came close to his first album. This set will probably be gifted to someone else
Yes. I agree the production does it no favours. That is why i intend giving the deluxe edition a listen. However, i still doubt many of the songs could potentially rise to the standard of the songs on Plastic Ono Band and Imagine. Aside from the brilliant title track, John just seems a little off. Out Of The Blue does have potential, and a few of the others are ok, but a little inconsequential. There is an aor feel to many of the songs, that may benefit from hearing the songs in a stripped down form. Sometime In New York City did suffer from a heavy handed approach that the songs had to be a message primarily, but a few were still decent (Woman Is The Nigger Of The World and New York City particularly), and i did like the sound very much of the Elephants Memory backing. With Mind Games there is much less to like (aside from as i mentioned previously the title track). There is something about Lennon's voice i find less appealing, too. He kind of sounds thinner and more pinched up.
@@classicalbum I tried again today on the way to work to listen to plastic Ono Band. I know it’s considered his best but I never cared for it and God knows I’ve tried over the years to like it. It’s too depressing. I get where it’s coming from but still.
If you look as his work as a whole it has some fine songs on it! The production is lacking as is the musicianship. I don’t think the running order of the songs is right, it’s John, but it’s not. It’s interesting and well worth a listen !
🤔 Interesting question 🙋 I would say only to us older generation who still listen to his music. The younger generation mostly, including my own children. No they could not care less about him !...
Is John Lennon of the Beatles still relevant??? -Yes Time moves on thats a fact, but 60 years later We are still talking about John Lennon and his other 3 mates and Im williing to bet that a 100 years from now people will still be talking about the Beatles.
I´m sick of all these remaster, remixed, anniversary box set, etc etc ...every 5 years... hiper expensives and obviously "limited edition"...buy NOOOW !!! All "rare stuff" are demos and live versions with horrendous sound that you hear ONE time and then, back to the basic CD. There are some box sets that worth it , like Ramones first albums, STP, Thin Lizzy ... and a few more-
I think it’s one of his weakest albums. Walls & Bridges for me is his best musically and lyrically and doesn’t get anywhere near the credit it deserves. Funny that it was done when he wasn’t with Yoko too..
![แฉกลโกงงานวัด 2024 [ โกงมั้ยครับ ep.106 ] | DOM](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/taC5dpP3HXA/mqdefault.jpg)

Nice! Looks a fantastic deluxe package. Great video. Another wonderful bit of viewing. Cheers!
I must admit if John did a shit on a plate and called it an album, I'd buy it. We've got so little of him as a solo artist so everything should be appreciated.
He did shit on a plate and call it an album. It's called Sometime in New York City.
If Paul pissed in a 🪣 circa 1973 and recorded it I'd definitely buy it along as its been remastered
@@catsofsherman1316 To be fair, Yoko did curl a few turds on that one also.
Great review as always. Don't know if you've noticed there's also hidden tracks on the CDs, Just read around the edge of the CDs + if you have a Infa-red torch you can also seen hidden messages all over the Complete Set
One can tell Yoko put the book together, or had major influence. Had Lennon lived, and got his head straight, this new edition would have looked much different, I think.
Let's be honest Yoko cares nothing about John Lennons memory and legacy. Just the money 💵 she can continue to make off him. Sad 😔 really !...
A great album imo, probably third behind the great Imagine & Plastic Ono Band
Love this album! One of the best boxed sets I've seen! I may have to buy it! 😬💵💵💵
Thanks for showing us every page of the book.
A lot of nice packaging for a just so-so LP.
I think is Lennon's best. Criminally under rated.
Why I think it's better?
It's impeccably produced unlike the Spector previous albums and the awful wall of sound, and unlike Walls and Bridges which is heavily over produced. The live version of Walls and Bridges contained in one side of Menlove Avenue are the ones to go to.
Seriously, Aisumasen, I know I know, Out the blue, Mind Games, One day at a time, Meat City, You are here. All these phenomenal songs.
John's POB was his best.
Imagine a close second.
My Favorite but not his best.
Walls and Bridges. Underrated.
Mind Games has its moments.
Title Track is one of his best.
I always felt John Voice should be right out front like POB.
Bring on Lucie should be played loud along with Meat City it Rocks. Out of the Blue and I know are great as well.

All Lennon is classic. 🦉🤸😸 50 yrs from now these comments will nt matter. But music will. Labels sure are handy producing packages aren't they.
I would only buy a super deluxe album of Paul McCartney "RAM", never got into Mind Games apart from the beautiful title track
Maybe try 'out the blue' & 'I know (i know)' - i personally recommend those tracks! All the best...

For me post 1960 music is Beatles, Kate Bush and Eivor. I consider Human Behavior by Bjork the perfect song also.
Lennons output post Beatles was mostly disappointing IMO.
Agree. Thank you. Plus, I've spent enough on 'box sets' that I seldom play. I'll pass on this one.
So those who got this early were just sent it early? I know some reviewers were sent their copies were but I’m curious.
Any idea how to play The hidden tracks without using a Blu ray?
Hope they find - popcorn demo....?
Are those your paintings ? Really good 👍👍👍👍👍
Those paintings are done by my wife, she's the artist
Love John Lennon, but Mind Games wasn't his finest moment. More outtakes there than there ought to be.
