Gimme Some Truth: The Making of John Lennon's Imagine Album (Video 2000)

Gimme Some Truth: The Making of John Lennon’s Imagine Album: Directed by Andrew Solt. With John Lennon, Yoko Ono, Phil Spector, George Harrison. Behind-the-scenes footage to document the production of one of John Lennon’s most enduring works. A fluid context of conflict, community, and craftsmanship.

“This is far superior to IMAGINE:JOHN LENNON which also used footage from Yoko Onou0026#39;s personal archives. It follows the making of Lennonu0026#39;s classic album, u0026#39;Imagineu0026#39;, and we are given insight both into his impatient but passionate recording processes, and also into the man himself and his relationship with Yoko. Seeing the succession of fantastic tracks being laid down with the likes of George Harrison and Klaus Voorman is engrossing, but the most presciently ghoulish episode concerns a bedraggled and disturbed fan turning up on Lennonu0026#39;s doorstep and insisting that all the Beatles songs were written specifically with him in mind (Lennon tries to reason with him then invites him in for a meal). An engaging delve into popular musicu0026#39;s past and the work of a genius.”
