Label: H041 Recorded at Madison Square Gardens New York, 30th August 1972 John Lennon and Yoko Ono, backed by the Plastic Ono Band, played at a Benefit Concert to raise money for mentally handicapped children. 1. New York City 2. It's So Hard 3. Woman Is The Nigger Of The World 4. Well Well Well 5. Instant Karma (We All Shine On) 6. Mother 7. Come Together 8. Imagine 9. Cold Turkey 10. Hound Dog 11. Give Peace A Chance Comments The audio of these tracks are on the official CD John Lennon - Live in New York City that was released on the 12th May 1986. I think only the DVD should have been released or the DVD and CD at the same time. It is very good to see John Lennon in what appears to be a such good spirit and his presentation and singing is very good. In Yoko's two songs I don't thinks she sings, more like screeches and I think its a shame that in a couple of John's songs she adds some of her screeching. Also on this disc every so often subtitles appear in Japanese.
