'Double' everything for this great legendary album!
This album was 'double' the pleasure and 'double' the quality! With two great talents on one album whose voices would compliment each other so well! This was one of the best albums from the decade that would show both John and Yoko on top form!One of Yoko's greatest talents shone through as backing vocals on two of Lennon's greatest songs: 'Starting Over' and 'Woman' - these would not have been the same without her! Indeed, we are indebted to Yoko herself for those songs ever having been written in the first place! 'Woman' could have worked with Yoko's backing vocals alone - ironically, a song that is complete with the two. Yoko certainly made 'Starting Over' and it now seems inconceivable that had John Lennon not been killed, this record would have only peaked at number ten in the singles charts... (it had fallen eleven places from that position to number twenty-one just the week before he was shot!)Fourteen tracks here - Yoko having the most with eight. These songs are alternated between the two singers which was a great idea and worked well. They could have each had a complete side each - separately (of the original album) for effect which would have worked equally as well, and was indeed an option, but the alternating was a 'neat' idea, thus showing off the great chemistry the two had.Yoko's songs kick off with the fabulous 'Kiss, Kiss, Kiss', which is so typical of her style, but her most beautiful song ever, has to be 'Beautiful Boys' that uses her great vocal talent to its full potential. There is some of the best writing from both artists captured here on this album. The three major hits from John: 'Starting Over', 'Woman' and 'Watching The Wheels' - the latter that unbelievably did not even make the top twenty - a puzzle I could not figure out... Both styles of singing from each artist is a fabulous combination.Truly an historical album produced from such a famous married couple.
