About this episode

Some Time In New York City - Part 2


In 1972 John Lennon entered a New York studio to record the follow-up to his transatlantic chart-topping ‘Imagine’ album.

With him were Yoko Ono, Phil Spector, and the Plastic Ono Elephants Memory Band. Things would never be quite the same again. 


Live on tape from Dublin and Belfast, it’s Nothing Is Real.
