    I have been following Yoko Ono's music since 1981's "Season of Glass" the quintessential Yoko Ono album made immediately after husband/ex-beatle John Lennon was shot to death mercilessly outside their apartment building. This new album has lots for her legions of fans to enjoy. "Leaving Tim" and "Chesire Cat Cry" are my favorites. It's hard to actually say "favorites" because I like theI have been following Yoko Ono's music since 1981's "Season of Glass" the quintessential Yoko Ono album made immediately after husband/ex-beatle John Lennon was shot to death mercilessly outside their apartment building.

It's the voice of a woman who has seen all the bad and great things life has to offer. And that's saying a lot. Yes, despite going through so much in life and now being 80 y.o. she continues on in her hip way making cool music which is relevant and worth listening to.

    The album repeats and reiterates her major concerns--artistic, political--and renders them witty and endearing. [Oct 2013, p.51]

    Guesting on a Yoko Ono LP has become like getting cast in a Woody Allen film: an artistic validation and New York City-branded right of passage. It’s also clearly a hoot.
