Milk and Honey SHM CD

Its cover artwork suggests a sequel toDouble Fantasy their respective photographs of John and Yoko look separated by mere moments as indeed they were. Yet, for us, the albums are divided by the widest gulf we could possibly imagine the death of John, which occurred in between.Maybe for this reason, Milk And Honeyhas always seemed an orphan among John Lennons recordings. It was the first posthumous release of unheard material, appearing some three years after his death. His own contributions to the album were never signed off by John himself. LikeDouble Fantasy, the record is structured as a Heart Play, or dialogue, of his songs and Yokos. But he was not there to help her assemble that particular conversation. With one or two notable exceptions, he was not familiar with Yokos tracks, at least not in their finished form.And yet,Milk And Honeyis a great John and Yoko record. It fully deserves its place in the tradition ofDouble Fantasyor their early avantgarde releases or any of the towering songs their names are jointly engraved upon.Uses the 2010 remaster and includes the 2010edition booklet, inner bag and the white booklet featuring the Japanese translations of the lyrics
