Description

Cover Notes: Anchored by the buoyant peace-and-love anthem, ‘Mind Games’, John Lennon’s fourth album of the same name, was surprisingly written and recorded during an incredibly tumultuous time in the rock legend’s life. In 1973, at age 33, John found himself in personal and political upheaval. A years-long deportation battle with U.S. immigration continued to rage on while his high-profile anti-Nixon campaigning, anti-Vietnam war activism, as well as the overtly political messages on his polarizing 1972 album, ‘Sometime in New York City’, made him a target of a newly elected Richard Nixon, leading to surveillance by the FBI.

Extras: 2025 edition booklet, inner bag and white booklet featuring the Japanese translations of the lyrics
