Rock 'n' Roll

by John Lennon

Rock 'n' Roll cover art

Stemming from a complex plagiarism lawsuit and infamous, wildly chaotic sessions with producer Phil Spector, John Lennon's loving tribute to his teenage influences is a fascinating document. 'Rock 'n' Roll' covers foundational 1950s classics in an incredibly energetic, remarkably playful style, utilizing wonderfully lush Wall of Sound production and deeply passionate, beautifully melodic vocal performances.
