The following eight solo albums have been digitally remastered:

“Double Fantasy” comes on a double CD, with the remastered version and a stripped down mix which really lives up to its name.

Commenting on the releases, Yoko said:

“In this very special year, which would have seen my husband and life partner John reach the age of 70, I hope that this remastering / reissue programme will help bring his incredible music to a whole new audience.”

“By remastering 121 tracks spanning his solo career, I hope also that those who are already familiar with John’s work will find renewed inspiration from his incredible gifts as a songwriter, musician and vocalist and from his power as a commentator on the human condition.”
