acousticrock87 07.09.2008 01:55 PM

I didn't know it existed, and neither does any website whatsoever. A real mystery record.

But yeah, it has Japanese writing and strange pictures all over it. It kind of feels a bit like the Mr. Sparkle episode of The Simpsons....

acousticrock87 07.09.2008 02:58 PM

It says it's by Yoko Ono.

This Is Not Here 07.09.2008 03:01 PM

Yes, it is. But it's just strange, I never knew it existed, and no website like discogs seems to know it does either. I just seemed a little spooky that its come from so far away and is named after my username, of all the Yoko-related things it could be.

acousticrock87 07.09.2008 03:06 PM

Interesting. What does it sound like? I mean, is it familiar Ono music stuff, or is it perhaps from the exhibition or something?

This Is Not Here 07.09.2008 03:17 PM

It appears to be a collection of home demos and live recordings. Nothing i've ever heard before...

acousticrock87 07.09.2008 03:18 PM

Wow. Especially considering the nature of the exhibition, that's an awesome find. I wonder how many there are...

pokkeherrie 07.09.2008 03:23 PM

dang, i was going to get you one of these:



 

MellySingsDoom 07.09.2008 03:26 PM

Whoa, a spooky coincidence and a good find, TINH.

I dunno if it has a track listing, but that has it. So it does exist.

acousticrock87 07.09.2008 03:29 PM

Oh nevermind, it looks like those are the tracks at the top right.

haha, yes "In Marge We Trust"...

Didn't mean to imply that you didn't know...
I'm fairly certain that "This Is Not Here" originally was a sign above the door on Lennon's mansion in Tittenhurst...it can be seen in the Imagine film...also, I think in the music video from the film...(view copyrighted material on youtube at your own risk these days...http://blogs.wsj.com/law/2008/07/07/...-google-order/) ...
and maybe it's in the Imagine: John Lennon doc too...I can't remember, but that is one of my faves...even saw it at the theater
