Yoko Ono: Fly (Colored Vinyl) Vinyl 2LP

Don’t Worry Kyoko, Mummy’s Only Looking For Her Hand In The Snow. Flyis the second studio album byYoko Ono, following 1970’s self-titled full-length with The Plastic Ono Band. Recorded at the Record Plant in NYC and co-produced by Ono and John Lennon, Fly cullsseveral tracksfrom various multidisciplinary pieces by John & Yoko, including “Airmale” which soundtracked Lennon’s short film “Erection” and the title track which comes from Ono’s film of the same name. The sound of the album ranges from psych freakouts (“Don’t Worry, Kyoko,” “Hirake”) to super far-out minimal drones, gnarly vocal incantations from Ono and -literally- a toilet flushing. Lennon’s reverb and echo experiments carry over from his time with The Beatleson tracks like “Airmale” and “Don’t Count The Waves.” Highlights include “Airmale,” gentle ballad “Mrs. Lennon” and “Don’t Worry, Kyoko” which features Eric Clapton and Ringo Starr on guitar and drums, respectively. Reissued on vinyl for the first time since its 1971 release by Secretly Canadian; faithful to the original with heavy duty deluxe cardboard gatefold, heavy white colored vinyl and a gang of bonus materials.
