Lots of people discuss a single album version of The White Album - a futile exercise as it takes away from enjoying the whole journey.
However, much more fun is imagining a 1968 solo John Lennon album...! John's songwriting was incredibly fruitful in 1968 and with all the hours put into it What's the New Mary Jane would've 100% been included. In which case we now have an incredible psychedelic/raw album that would've been a joy and not to mention an incredibly confrontational listen!
Side one
1. Dear Prudence
2. Glass Onion
3. The Continuing Story of Bungalow Bill
4. Happiness Is a Warm Gun
5. I'm So Tired
6. Julia
Side two
1. Yer Blues
2. Everybody's Got Something to Hide Except Me and My Monkey
3. Sexy Sadie
4. Revolution 1
5. Cry Baby Cry
6. Revolution 9
7. What's the New Mary Jane
So, what would you include on your fantasy solo John albums from 1963-1969?
