Power to the Peeple marks the first crack of the John & Yoko partnership with the album being slammed critically (only Imagine and Gimme Some Truth were left out of the harsh reviews). This would later send him into his “Lost Weekend” and the creation of The Beatles’ 1973 and 1975 albums.

  2. Imagine
  3. John Sinclair - Extended
  4. Sisters, Oh Sisters

I just saw one of the worst fan-albums of all time, just absolute Ai-generated SLOP!! To remedy this I remade that entire album using the imagination of a the far superior human mind. I hope this came out better than that “album”.

All songs stem from Red Rose Speedway [RRS] unless noted otherwise…

Ride On [A]:

  1. Get On The Right Thing
  2. Mary Had A Little Lamb - Non-Album Single
