John Lennon Missing Recordings Discovered and Released


LAS VEGAS, Dec. 3 /PRNewswire-AsiaNet/ --


    Recently some rare and unreleased John Lennon recordings were discovered in a vault. These recordings were

taped on August 19, 1980. They were done separately from the mysteriously missing video footage that was filmed

at what is believed to be John Lennon's last recording session with his band prior to his death. Even more

incredible, these recordings have never been released until now.


    Twenty-nine years ago on December 08, 1980, The Beatles fans were stunned by four senseless shots fired into

the back of John Lennon. He was only 40 and had become one of the most influential musicians of all time. That

night the world stood still and silent for a moment.



about the evening these tapes were recorded.


    To commemorate the 29th anniversary of John Lennon's death and with the Christmas season upon us, it feels

like the perfect time to get back into the Lennon spirit with these rare and precious recordings just in time to Give

Peace Another Chance this holiday season.


    For the first time ever these newly discovered recordings are available for a pre-order purchase at

www.LennonTapes.com and at your request, the pre-order allows you to direct the email download on December

23rd to be sent to yourself or your friends as a Christmas gift. For only $10 US, this is one of the best gifts that you

can give this Christmas.


    John had left The Beatles in 1970 and went on to record solo albums which all became classics. First came John

Lennon/Plastic Ono Band and then Imagine. The songs "Give Peace a Chance" and "Imagine" would create a

worldwide movement. Then came "Happy Xmas (War is Over)." In 1973, Lennon released "Mind Games"; in

September 1974, Walls and Bridges and the single "Whatever Gets You Thru the Night"; in 1975 "Rock 'n' Roll"

was released, on April 18th 1975 Lennon made his last TV appearance performing "Imagine"; in October 1975,

Lennon releases "Shaved Fish."


    It was in August 1980 when Lennon entered the Hit Factory recording studios in New York City, where he

recorded the Double Fantasy album, and this tape was recorded the last night that he was ever in the studio with

his band.


    Released in memory of John Lennon. We miss you.
