Rock 'N' Roll (SHM CD)
Rock’N’Roll has one of the strangest back-stories in music folklore. From its unpromising origins in a legal morass and months of drunken time-wasting, John rescued this sparkling tribute to the bygone era that he adored. Its tracks were all cover versions, and hardly the mass anthems or scarred confessionals Lennon was known for. Yet Rock’N’Roll was both revealing and delightful. These same tracks resurrected the leather-clad, greasy-quiffed Liverpool teenager who still lived inside John Lennon’s head.
Uses the 2010 remaster and includes the 2010-edition booklet and the white booklet featuring the Japanese translations of the lyrics.
