The new stripped down version of the album comes in an expanded 2CD and digital edition pairing the new version with Lennon\u2019s original mix, remastered.<\/p>\n<p>The campaign\u2019s other new collections include:<\/p>\n<p>\u00b7        A hits compilation in two editions titled Power To The People: The Hits<\/p>\n<p>\u00b7        A 4CD set of themed discs titled Gimme Some Truth<\/p>\n<p>\u00b7        A deluxe 11CD collectors box with the remastered albums, rarities, and non-album singles, titled the John Lennon Signature Box<\/p>\n<p>All of the remastered albums and collections will be available on CD and for download purchase from all major digital service providers<\/p>\n<p>YOKO ONO said: \u201cIn this very special year, which would have seen my husband and life partner John reach the age of 70, I hope that this remastering \/ reissue programme will help bring his incredible music to a whole new audience. By remastering 121 tracks spanning his solo career, I hope also that those who are already familiar with John\u2019s work will find renewed inspiration from his incredible gifts as a songwriter, musician and vocalist and from his power as a commentator on the human condition. His lyrics are as relevant today as they were when they were first written and I can think of no more apposite title for this campaign than those simple yet direct words &#8217;Gimme Some Truth&#8217;.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The albums have been digitally remastered from Lennon\u2019s original mixes by Yoko Ono and a team of engineers led by Allan Rouse at EMI Music\u2019s Abbey Road Studios in London and by George Marino at Avatar Studios in New York.  All of the remastered titles will be packaged in digisleeves with replicated original album art and booklets with photos and new liner notes by noted British music journalist Paul Du Noyer.<\/p>\n<p>YOKO ONO added:  \u201cDouble Fantasy Stripped Down really allows us to focus our attention on John\u2019s amazing vocals. Technology has advanced so much that, conversely, I wanted to use new techniques to really frame these amazing songs and John&#8217;s voice as simply as possible. By stripping down some of the instrumentation the power of the songs shines through with an enhanced clarity. Double Fantasy Stripped Down will be complemented by the original album in the 2CD format. It was whilst working on the new version of this album that I was hit hardest emotionally, as this was the last album John released before his passing.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Power To The People: The Hits gathers 15 of Lennon\u2019s most popular songs, and will be available as a 15-track single-disc and digital package, and as an Experience Edition with additional content.  Both versions will be packaged in digisleeves with booklets including a new liner note essay by Du Noyer.<\/p>\n<p>Gimme Some Truth, to be packaged in a slipcase with rare photos and a new liner notes essays by respected American music journalist and author, Anthony DeCurtis, presents 72 of Lennon\u2019s solo recordings on four themed CDs:<\/p>\n<p>\u00b7        \u2018Roots\u2019 \u2013 John\u2019s rock \u2018n\u2019 roll roots and influences<\/p>\n<p>\u00b7        \u2018Working Class Hero\u2019 \u2013 John\u2019s socio-political songs<\/p>\n<p>\u00b7        \u2018Woman\u2019 \u2013 John\u2019s love songs<\/p>\n<p>\u00b7         \u2018Borrowed Time\u2019 \u2013 John\u2019s songs about life<\/p>\n<p>The John Lennon Signature Box is a deluxe 11CD and digital collection of the eight remastered albums, a disc of rare and previously unreleased recordings, and an EP of Lennon\u2019s non-album singles.
