Not as bad as you may think...,

This review is from: Wedding Album (Audio CD)
Well, I finally bought this album after resisting it for years and years... in which time the lavish box-set vinyl packaging (which was probably of more interest to people than the 'music' on the record!) has of course been reduced to a CD.
You still get the photo of the slice of wedding cake, marriage certificate and wedding photos though. The repetitive 'John/Yoko' spoken mantra (which originally filled the first side of the vinyl album) isn't as mind-numbing as expected - there's a real sense of fun & love coming across from this simple exercise in minimalism. The bed-in interview is excellent too, as is the surprise improvised vocal track 'John, John Let's Hope for Peace', with its Eastern flavor. The 3 bonus tracks tacked on the end are an inspired idea - though if they'd extended this to include contemporary songs 'Give Peace a Chance' & 'Cold Turkey', this album could almost be perfect?! 'Listen the Snow is Falling' - lovely though it is, sounds a little incongruous here, it has to be said. Certainly a must for all Lennon fans - though a budget price would seem more appropriate, considering the relative sparsity of the material.

Surprise,

This review is from: Wedding Album (Audio CD)
I have to admitt that I only bought this album to complete my collection of Lennon CD's, and after playing 2virgins & life with the lions I was not expecting much. I was, however plesently surprised. The first track follows in John's experimentation & contains John & Yoko aimply repeating their names to one another, this does result in a rather relaxing mantra. The second track is exerpts of John & Yoko in their 'bed peace' in Canada & is a fascinating insihgt into what happened. The Yoko tracks were to be expected from her. Wailing down the mike in a studio or infront of an audience. However John & co's musical talent goes show through. I would recomend this CD to any Lennon fan as it shows not only the supremly talented musician, but a man who was open to new ideas and experimenting with his music.

this album is excellent,
This review is from: Wedding Album (Audio CD)
the album opens with a twenty minute track John & Yoko, a musical version of the old Lenono trick of calling each others names. it is beautiful to hear such love coming out of your speakers. The second track contains heartbreaking excerpts of interviews from the Bed-in, and the album closes with three Ono B-sides, including the fantastic Don't Worry Kyoko (Mummy's only looking for her hand in the Snow), a track which Radiohead or Frusciante would be proud of.
