Apple Records – 2CO 62 – 04703
 This is John Lennon’s first proper solo album after the breakup of The Beatles. And it’s arguably the rawest, most personal, and emotionally powerful work he ever created. Plastic Ono Band is the sound of Lennon stripping everything away — musically and emotionally. It’s not a commercial record. It’s confession-as-art. Minimalist: No orchestras, overdubs, or grand Beatles-style production. The arrangements are stark — often just guitar, bass, drums, and piano. Produced by: John Lennon, Yoko Ono, and Phil Spector. Notable musicians: John Lennon – vocals, guitar, piano, Ringo Starr – drums, Klaus Voormann – bass.
