Long Live Rock 'N' Roll

87. 'Rock 'N' Roll' - John Lennon (1975)


Listen Later

In 1975, legally required to record 3 songs for borrowing lyrics, John Lennon set out on a cathartic project to put his own spin on a collection of rock ‘n’ roll classics from the 50s and 60s. In a chaotic studio environment, these 13 cover songs were produced by Phil Spector and represented a nostalgic trip down memory lane for Lennon in what would be his final solo studio album - recounting and recalling the music that inspired him before fame, fortune and beatlemania took over.
