Title: YOKO ONO-"WINTER FRIEND" (1974)
Description: Beautiful pop ballad from 1974! When John and Yoko had a trial seperation in '74, she recorded a beautiful and intimate album on her own called "A Story". It deftly weaves haunting confessionals with radiant, elegant melodies. Sadly it went unreleased when they reconciled; if it had come out, the world would have had to admitted her talent far sooner. But it did emerge on CD from Ryko Records in the 90's, just as timeless and warm as sunshine. Definitely one to track down! Check out my Herstory Of Rock on the Playlist page of my Channel!

Title: John Lennon - Woman is the "N" of the World
Description: love him! Wish he were here today...from the Dick Cavett Show. Our society is run by insane people for insane objectives. I think we're being run by maniacs for maniacal ends and I think I'm liable to be put away as insane for expressing that. That's what's insane about it. -John Lennon "Laurel and Hardy, that's John and Yoko. And we stand a better chance under that guise because all the serious people like Martin Luther King and Kennedy and Gandhi got shot." -- John Lennon

Title: YOKO ONO-"MOVE ON FAST" (1972)
Description: Yoko predating Punk! Yoko, like many greats, has a killer double album from 1972 called "Approximately Infinite Universe". Everyone pegged her as a banshee making noise rock. Here, she seemed determined to personify the title by trying a raft of styles; haunting piano ballads, funky vamps, lilting pop, and tough rockers. Backed by Elephant's Memory, she sprints through this song with fists flailing. Its energy, shouting stride, and shreiking sax foretell X-Ray Spex six years early. The "A.I.U." CD is her "Blonde On Blonde" or "White Album". Made in '72, it foreshadows the Tom Tom Club, Tori Amos, Cibo Matto, Bikini Kill, and more. Well worth it!

Title: John Lennon & Yoko Ono: WAR IS OVER! (If You Want It)
Description: December 8, 2007 I miss you, John. 27 years later, I still wish I could turn back the clock to the Summer of 1980. I remember everything - sharing our morning coffee, walking in the park together on a beautiful day, and seeing your hand stretched to mine - holding it, reassuring me that I shouldn't worry about anything because our life was good. I had no idea that life was about to teach me the toughest lesson of all. I learned the intense pain of losing a loved one suddenly, without warning, and without having the time for a final hug and the chance to say, "I love you," for the last time. The pain and shock of that sudden loss is with me every moment of every day. When I touched John's side of our bed on the night of December 8th, 1980, I realized that it was still warm. That moment has haunted me for the past 27 years - and will stay with me forever. Even harder for me is watching what was taken away from our beautiful boy, Sean. He lives in silent anger over not having his Dad, whom he loved so much, around to share his life with. I know we are not alone. Our pain is one shared by many other families who are suffering as the victims of senseless violence. This pain has to stop. Let's not waste the lives of those we have lost. Let's, together, make the world a place of love and joy and not a place of fear and anger. This day of John's passing has become more and more important for so many people around the world as the day to remember his message of Peace and Love and to do what each of us can to work on healing this planet we cherish. Let's: Think Peace, Act Peace, and Spread Peace. John worked for it all his life. He said, "there's no problem, only solutions." Remember, we are all together. We can do it, we must. I love you! Yoko Ono Lennon 8 December 2007

Title: YOKO ONO (FILM MUSIC:) Astrology (Henry): Pierre Henry - Astrology : |Musique concrète| NOT YOKO ONO!!! MICHAEL HANSEN-.-.-.-.-.-.- YOU MUST WATCH WITH ANNOTATIONS ON!!! you must watch with Annotations on after you read the introduction...
Description: Pierre Henry Astrology This is not Yoko Ono This was done Waaaayyyyy before Yoko Ono -Jean Gremillon's short film, Astrologie (1952) marked the first use of musique concrete in the commercial French cinema. Pierre Henry has taken four sequences from it: the stars, the Cataclysms, the Machines, the War. This music has served as the basis of a ballet by Maurice Bejart, which he called Arcane. Musique Concrete In 1948 Paris, history was made. Pierre Schaeffer, a French radio broadcaster, working for the Radiodiffusion-Television Francaise (RTF), created the first electronic music studio. With a multitude of microphones, phonographs, variable speed tape recorders and sound effect records he created a new art form, musique concrete, and with it a world of new music opened up -- the world of electronic music. Musique concrete was the first type to be created. It involves using the found sounds in nature, distorted in various ways, to create music. Live, it becomes an exercise in mixing together unexpected sounds into some sort of form while studio musique concrete uses complex tape manipulations to create the effect. Musique concrete can be created two different ways, both with widely varying techniques of creation. Recorded musique concrete uses tape, phonographs, and various other pieces of equipment available in the studio. It is created by recording various sounds on tape and modifying them in some way. This can be achieved by playing the tape back at various speeds, making a tape loop of the sound, playing the tape backwards, stretching the tape, or simply splicing short segments of tape together. What results is a alteration of the sound in new and unique way. Sounds can then be pasted together and overlayed to create a 'song'. Live musique concrete cannot use all the techniques of it recorded form. It usually consists of enormous amounts of microphones placed in various places around the performing hall and half a dozen variable speed phonographs all feeding into a series of mixers and filters, which in turn feed the various amplifiers driving a multitude of speakers scattered throughout the hall. In either form, musique concrete creates a unique form of music that takes the ear strangely. Though not created until 1948, musique concrete has a long history before that of composers trying to add noise to their compositions to break free from conventional music. One of the first of these composers was Luigi Russolo. In conjunction with Balilla Pratella, he created an orchestra of Bruituers, or noise making machines. Encased in large boxes, these made a variety of grunts and hisses that became part of his 'Art of Noises' concerts in Milan, 1914. He used his bruituers to accompany traditional music and combine with it in new ways. After Russolo came Darius Mihaud, who began to experiment with changing the speeds of records to get new sounds. Meanwhile Respighi was having a phonograph playing nightingales along with an orchestra in his Pines of Rome in 1924. In 1927, Antheil was experimenting with noise in ballet. Using car horns, airplane propellers, saws, and anvils, he wrote his Ballet Mechanique. All the while approaching was the one discovery that could make such compositions infinitely easier to create. In 1935, Allgemeine Elektrizitaets Gesellschaft invented the tape recorder, the crucial technological advancement needed for musique concrete to be realised.

Are we waiting for the pie to fall from the sky? Maybe we should take five and go for a ride See what the world is up to, you and I? I know you're still thinking of that empty room behind One day well air it and fill it with sunshine Now you know it's just you and I And that's no reason to cry So hope, skip and run, let's have some fun You and I, you and I You just turned nine, and were both fine You and I, you and I.
