JOHN LENNON/PLASTIC ONO BAND - THE ULTIMATE COLLECTION - SUPER DELUXE BOX SET. Out now → Original footage of John & Yoko’s Montreal Bed-In and New York filmed by Jonas Mekas, with inserts of John & Yoko and the Plastic Ono Band performing ’Cold Turkey’ live at Varsity Stadium in 1969, directed by D.A. Pennebaker. First released 1969; restored to 4K, 2021. John: ’It’s a strange story because when we were in Montreal, (Yoko’s friend from New York) Jonas Mekas – who some people will know is like the Daddy of underground films – was making these quick clips of us. We didn’t know what he was making. Now we can see it, you know. And then he sent it to us in England with a message which we never received – somebody opened the packet saying, ’Play this with “Give Peace A Chance“’ because we were doing the Bed-In in Montreal and he was filming that. But we were looking around for a bit of film to show with ’Cold Turkey’, like a promo film for the pop shows in England.
