John Lennon - Walls Bridges

Review by Cara Bloom

Walls and Bridges, the fifth studio album by John Lennon, was released in 1974. The album was produced during Lennon's infamous "lost weekend," a period of separation from his wife Yoko Ono. The album features an eclectic mix of musical styles, ranging from rock and roll to soul and even reggae.

The album's opening track, "Going Down on Love," sets the tone for the album with its upbeat tempo and catchy chorus. The album's title track, "Walls and Bridges," is a hauntingly beautiful ballad that showcases Lennon's songwriting skills. Other standout tracks include "Whatever Gets You Thru the Night," which features Elton John on backing vocals and piano, and "Old Dirt Road," a collaboration with Lennon's former bandmate, Ringo Starr.

Summary by Cara Bloom

Walls and Bridges is a solid album that showcases Lennon's versatility as a musician and songwriter. While not as groundbreaking as some of his previous work, the album is still a must-listen for fans of Lennon's music.
