John Lennon (5/Cd) Set - Complete Home Demo Recordings 1975-1980

Latest work of M Claudel will be the demo that was recorded from 1975 to 1980, he called the House Husband life of John Lennon on the exhaustive the title includes the first appearance sound source. John, to be called the love from a parent to a child has not been received in the I’m a light had become a burden of a very big heart. And for the Julian awaited blessed son, just The Beatles popularity of hit and time that has become global, it was not raised with enough Kama~tsu. It would be the reflection, from birth is Sean between the Yoko in 1975, to stop any of the music activities, will be in the middle of retired state in order to concentrate on raising children. That the period of five years from 1975 in 1980, speaking from the time of the musicians of the cycle, the fact that the five-year period does not release the album is a long period of time it is not even been thought to have retired from the public way.

The posthumous work in 1980 the end of the year “double Fantasy” will be released. Has received a number of interviews as the promotion, but one of them, there was a reporter who asked to be or not to be, such as composer to five years of silence. John in answer to the question “If you are allowed to remain subjected to guitar wall, it was not touched at all,” says the. Of course, this is an embarrassment and a joke in the fact that after a long time of the album, you can create a number of songs in fact, have been known that they were recording a demo. It becomes aside, the “double fantasy” is great, those condensed the accumulation of the past five years, it does not further squeezed become other to because selection has been music group to the real album of half the number of songs.

When you produce a movie “Imagine” in 1988, Andrew Salt of the director as “the 20th century of the person or not than not a person that the video is remaining about this”, I have marveled the abundance of the material beneath, I will Such seems as John had done consciously that leave the record. Underground sound source that was left of John climbed in just a huge number, because there is no systematic and summarized material, the whole of understanding is a difficult situation. Piecemeal in the late ’80s radio program that called the topic in “THE LOST LENNON TAPES” or first appearance sound source has not been recorded, also, such as a new sound source, even in recent years come out, it was really chaotic situation It has become. M Claudel, in order summarized John of the sound source in a systematic manner, the session series for each album, and live recordings have been completed. Studio sessions, followed by live, next is the demo collection. It also recorded a demo of the House Husband era of 1975 to 1980 in a systematic manner.

In carrying to record a demo of John of househusband era, which was not only known to fragmented until now, those famous, and etc. In carrying continue to build in the first appearance sound source, you know that you spend a really CD10 sheets minute , it needs to be recorded huge amount of 800 minutes in the time was found. So, now to be released as a series divided the demo of this househusband era to five at a time two sets. Even though the demo, or wanted while playing the guitar, or was the piano, it is rich in variety as or use the rhythm machine, it will not get bored those who listen. Also, by listening to the sound of the early stages of making song called demo, and we know very well the process of until the song is completed. For example the famous “Starting Over” was originally Song Title of “Do not Be Crazy”, and that the lyrics had been significantly different, even originally rebuild the song was created as another song such that it was combined into one songs, we are able to perceive from this demo collection.

And here but is the most important, on the characteristics of the demo, the instrument be of a minimum, only the main is that John’s vocal. John of the great rock ‘n’ roll voice is, you can enjoy as much as or even this. John would have obtained enough first-class alone song even without a composer, I have that voice heard in vivid ear. If this is the people that are attracted to John, you’ll able to understand that the most attractive of John is in the “that voice”. That vocal to touch the heartstrings of those of mind to listen, but can not be adequately expressed in words, what not being transmitted to sufficient only say “that voice”. John Lennon as a vocalist in a simple performance because, that more fully can enjoy is, you may say that the biggest attraction of the demo.

This work mean that Vol.1, we recorded a demo of 1975-1980 (Vol2 is expected that all five will be recorded in 1980 in the demo). Who is neither than to listen, also There is only demo of the era that does not assume the release, the official still and it features the music that remain unpublished often. Among which was announced as a new song of the Beatles in 1995 and “Free As A Bird”, “Real Love” is, of course, has been studied as a third of the new song “Now And Then” it is also included. From about 1979, after as well many music initial demonstration of View of day as a “double-fantasy”, which I will think because John there was a sense of trying to announce soon a new album.
