Index > The new 2025 9CD boxset release of John Lennon's Sometimes In New York cancelled one of his songs > It's no great loss

I’m more irritated regarding the cut from live performance

I agree it’s a terrible album although it’s probably the best song in that album

as you see in my what’s spinning i listen to a lot of live bootlegs and live album

John Lennon rarely performed live and that concert was an interesting documentation of him as a live artist. for them to release what essentially an expanded full concert but then cut that song from the performance like he never played it live seems outrageous

i mean i get irritated listening to bootlegs of incomplete concert. i mean why doesn’t radio broadcast the full concert instead of curating “highlights” so a professional full release cutting a song just seemed even more egregious
