Some Time in New York City album for sale Product Description
Some Time in New York City album for sale by John Lennon was released Oct 05, 2010 on the Capitol label. While Lennon claimed to have always been politically minded, given his working-class upbringing in class-conscious England ("I've been satirizing the system since my childhood," he once mused), rock-pop sensibilities, clever wordplay, or matters of the heart usually took precedence in his musical output. But here Lennon and Yoko, accompanied by New York's Elephant's Memory, sing and scream freely against sexism in "Woman Is the Nigger Of The World" and "Sisters, O Sisters." They protest incarceration in "John Sinclair," "Attica State," and "Born In A Prison," colonialism in "Sunday Bloody Sunday" and "The Luck Of The Irish," and racism in "Angela." The richness of Phil Spector's production fills out the danceable grooves on nearly every track. Some Time in New York City CD music is a 2-disc set with 16 songs. ...See Full Description

| well, he tried. I had such high hopes for this album. It seemed that it would at least be half-way decent, unfortunately it's not. By Jerry (Lansing, NY)  This review is for a different format. |
| Protest Music at its Best! The first disc is great, including Yoko. I especially like "The Luck of the Irish" and "Attica State." The live jam with Frank Zappa on the second disc is just marvelous. By a reviewer (North Garden, VA)  This review is for a different format. |
| Worth the offence for the good bits. Its got some great vocals, great music, great intentions, comletely of its time, essential for an antidote to the public perception of Lennon the pacifist, still manages to annoy 30 odd years on, Angela is weak, Luck of the Irish is beyond parody and contept, still its a great listen, but its also awful at the same time. By Edwin (Whitby, England) This review is for a different format. |
| Second Best for Lennon! Sometime In New York City from 1972, is a great album! The songs are wild, messy and very naked. The cynical ideas expressed behind those songs is thought provoking and inspriring to hear. By keithsilvers (Wisconsin, USA) This review is for a different format. |
| Lennon's most underrated album This album was rubbished when it was released and is invariably described as Lennon's weakest work even by those who ought to know better. By mahirali (Sydney, Australia) This review is for a different format. |
