I own Plastic Ono Band and Imagine but I'll probably pick this up if one of the B&M stores has a good first week price. Seems to be a pretty solid tracklisting.

Seems kind of redundant. All of these have been released in a greatest hits collection allready.

another? you know, john's solo career was pretty disappointing outside of plastic ono band and imagine, imo.

Jeez, how many Lennon compliations are needed? I personally really like the single-disc "LEGEND" from a while back; I've got that, the "Plastic Ono Band" CD and "Wonsaponatime" which was a single-disc best of of that rarities box set that came out a decade or so ago - that's enuff Lennon for me.

Which is why owning those two albums and a compilation like this makes perfect sense. IMHO.

I just picked up Wingspan...what a great album that is.

I own the old John Lennon Collection album. It might be worth it to replace it with this. I also own Imagine and Plastic Ono Band and those are probably the only two individual albums I want. I really like Nobody Told Me and Woman Is The ****** Of The World though.

What about Double Fantasy? Great album, IMO.

Oh, and what's with the title? I never considered John Lennon to be a working class anything.
