John Lennon ORIG UK LP Walls & bridges VG+ ’74 Apple PCTC 253 Beatles
Original UK LP released in 1974 on Apple Records. Cat: PCTC 253. Comes in die cut sleeve. Also has printed inner bag and booklet which are both in EXcellent condition.
Walls and Bridges was recorded during John Lennon's infamous "lost weekend," as he exiled himself in California during a separation from Yoko Ono. Lennon's personal life was scattered, so it isn't surprising that Walls and Bridges is a mess itself, containing equal amounts of brilliance and nonsense. Falling between the two extremes was the bouncy Elton John duet "Whatever Gets You Thru the Night," which was Lennon's first solo number one hit. Its bright, sunny surface was replicated throughout the record, particularly on middling rockers like "What You Got" but also on enjoyable pop songs like "Old Dirt Road." However, the best moments on Walls and Bridges come when Lennon is more open with his emotions, like on "Going Down on Love," "Steel and Glass," and the beautiful, soaring "No. 9 Dream."
Tracks : Going down on love/ Whatever gets you through the night/ Old dirt road/ What you got/ Bless you/ Scared/ #9 dream/ Surprise, surprise (sweet bird of paradox)/ Steel and glass/ Beef jerky/ Nobody loves you (when your down and out)/ Ya ya/
