The John Lennon Imagine Motion Picture Soundtrack is probably one of the best John Lennon/Beatles compilation albums to be released. The cd goes along with the music featured in the 1988 biography film about the musician/composer. It also features the best of both worlds, The Beatles music and John Lennon's on one cd. It does contain rarities on it such as the Imagine rehearsal track, a rare mono mix of Twist And Shout, and an alternate stereo mix of A Day In The Life. The two rare tracks (Imagine rehearsal, and A Day In The Life alternate stereo mix) are only availible on this one cd. The quality is also great, it offers great clarity of The Beatles songs, (Some tracks even sound in better quality then the actual Beatles cds. The tracks I noticed amazing clarity and sound were on, Real Love, Help!, Revolution, A Day In The Life, and Julia sound better than the mixes on the Beatles cds. I am unsure if it is in remixed stereo, however the Lennon solo tracks on the cd sound the standard quality as on the regular cds, however they do not match up to the ones released on the 2004 remastered albums. It makes a great album for Beatles and Lennon fans of all ages. I also recomend the film by Warner Bros. too.Read full review
This CD is absolutely wonderful -- a masterpiece. It's a classic and a must have for your collection!!! John Lennon was a musical genius, a true artist, and he lives on through his music and lyrics. Songs like: "Imagine", "Revolution", "Give Peace A Chance", "Beautiful Boy" and so many other songs are part of this brilliant compilation. I guarantee the songs will get stuck in your head; that's how good they are. Highly recommended!!!
I am a huge fan of John Lennon and the Beatles. I purchased the Imagine CD after seeing the movie Imagine when it first came out on video. That was well before DVD's were known to all. I loved the cd just as much then as I do now. I lost the original CD after moving so many times. I just had to have it again! What I loved most about the CD was the way the songs were picked and arranged on the CD. It was as though they were going through his life in music! Rather than buying brand new, I saved some money by winning it off of ebay! I would highly recommend to anyone who even remotely likes John Lennon..... go out and purchase this CD! Then if you can, watch the movie. You'll be glad you did!
This is a tremendous collection of tracks from the life of John Lennon, featuring some of his biggest hits. Taken from the IMAGINE documentary, which I also highly recommend, this soundtrack is simply a 5 star release. I love this Cd so much that I have bought it on 3 times now, having passed on the other 2 to friends of mine for them to enjoy and treasure. If you are a Lennon or a Beatles fan BUY THIS CD!!!!
After extensive searching on iTunes, and no success, I searched eBay for Imagine and found many copies available for purchase at great prices. Imagine is an audio tour of John Lennons life and soul. He became world famous with The Beatles but instead of fame and fortune ruining him, it helped to enlighten and better him. He became an activist against war and hatred. This transformation is beautifully obvious when listening to Imagine. As is his deep and true love for his children and wife, Yoko.
