The John Lennon Video Collection (VHS)

Unopened VHS in shrink-wrap. Never opened. Not a used video.This 19 song collection brings together for the first time the best of John Lennon's solo material. Featuring all the major single releases it includes 16 tracks never before released on video. 6 videos have been specially made by Yoko Ono for this compilation from her own archive collection including "Whatever Gets You Through The Night: which features animated footage of John's drawings. Run Time: 79 minutes. The John Lennon Video Collection. Rare classic live performances include "Instant Karma" from Top Of The Pops, "Stand By Me" from The Old Grey Whistle Test and a special bonus version of "Imagine". This chronological account of Lennon's past Beatles work from 1969 to his untimely death in 1980 forms a historical document and represents a truly essential item for the collector. The track list is: 1: "Give Peace a Chance" the rumpled bed with John and Yoko, and friends like "acid guru" Timothy Leary, Hare Krishna folks, and the unlikely appearance of Petula Clark amid the mayhem.
2: "Cold Turkey" about John's attempt at kicking the heroin habit.
3: "Instant Karma" lipsynched at the "Top of the Pops" TV program (a U.K. version of "American Bandstand"), while a blindfolded Yoko is doing some sort of performance with flashcards.
4: "Power to the People" includes images from the Tiananmen Square uprising, which seems very out of place, since it happened 9 years after Lennon's death.
5: "Happy Xmas (War is Over)" features some cute kids singing.
6: "Mind Games"
7: "Whatever Gets You Through the Night" features some clever animation.
8: "No. 9 Dream"
9: "Stand by Me" (Ben E. King) a recording studio performance of the wonderful Ben E. King number.
10: "Slippin' and Slidin'" (Penniman, Bocage, Collins, Smith) rock & rollin' with some terrific musicians.
11: "Imagine" John's best known song as a solo artist.
