https://x.com/johnlennon/status/1711289726987108679?s=46&t=CtcpA-mHLqifRoR7wegi1wHAPPY BIRTHDAY JOHN LENNON.
To celebrate John’s birthday today, October 9th, a new Deluxe and Expanded version of Imagine (The Ultimate Collection) is now available to stream and download, including the entire full-length collection of tracks (some previously only available on Blu-Ray) in Hi-Res Stereo and Spatial Audio/Dolby Atmos.
Rather than releasing all 78 tracks in one massive long playlist, each set of mixes (Ultimate, Elements, Evolution, Raw Studio and Out-Takes) is now being released as 5 separate albums, to be listened to and enjoyed in the way they were originally intended, as produced and curated by Yoko Ono Lennon.
We’ll be doing the same with the John Lennon/Plastic Ono Band Ultimate Collection soon, and then releasing a brand new, completely remixed Mind Games (The Ultimate Collection) in the summer of 2024, featuring an incredible six albums worth of material, followed by even more surprises later in the year.
We hope you enjoy Imagine and on John’s birthday make a wish on Yoko’s WISH TREE to send to the IMAGINE PEACE TOWER at wishtreeforyoko.com.
Join us to watch IMAGINE PEACE TOWER @IPTower lighting up in Iceland today at imaginepeacetower.com.
love, Yoko and Sean.
Imagine (The Ultimate Mixes, Deluxe)
Faithfully remixed from the ground up by triple Grammy® Award winning engineer Paul Hicks at @AbbeyRoad Studios under the supervision of @YokoOno Lennon, using high-definition 24-96 audio transfers of the original first generation multi-track recordings, these Ultimate Mixes reveal whole new levels of sonic depth, definition and clarity, especially in Spatial Audio/Dolby Atmos.

Imagine (The Elements Mixes)
The Elements Mixes use a few simple elements from the multitrack recordings, that reveal even deeper levels of detail and clarity in the sources used for the master mixes that were buried or mono-ed, now opened up and presented on a wider, clearer and brighter sound stage.

Imagine (The Raw Studio Mixes)
Experience, in Stereo and immersive Spatial/Dolby Atmos, the moment John and The Plastic Ono Band record each song, raw and live, from a sonic soundstage at the centre of Ascot Sound Studios at John & Yoko’s home in Tittenhurst. The musicians are positioned in the identical 3D space around you as they were when they recorded the track - with you sat in the centre of the studio.
