I currently have none of John's solo albums on CD, but every so often I wonder about getting this one again.
He was away from Yoko and that was both good and bad. Good because it freed up his writing and he could write pieces like #9 Dream and Old Dirt Road that were less diaristic than the works he did while Yoko was watching. Bad because he went to pieces, drank too much and was deeply unhappy.
So there is creativity here, gloominess, a lack of focus although it contains a pretty energetic single with "Whatever gets You through the Night"
it's an intriguing album, anyone here a fan of it?
