Today, September 26, 1974, in The Beatles’ History, John Lennon releases “Walls and Bridges.” John’s fifth solo album, Walls And Bridges, was released on 26 September 1974 in the United States. The most focused set of recordings made during John’s legendary Lost Weekend, Walls And Bridges marked a return to form following the clumsy sloganeering of Some Time In New York City and the uneven Mind Games. The album was a Billboard number one, was awarded gold status, and spent 35 weeks on the charts. In the UK it was released on 4 October 1974. It peaked at number six, and was in the charts for a total of 10 weeks. An advertising campaign ran to promote Walls And Bridges. The concept, suggested by Lennon, was around the theme “Listen to this…”, and was applied to button badges, stickers, advertisements, posters and t-shirts. In New York City it also featured on the rear of 2,000 buses. A television commercial also ran in late 1974. It showed the album sleeve in various permutations, and had a voiceover by Ringo. John returned the favour by voicing the advert for Ringo’s album Goodnight Vienna , released in November 1974. Originally, John planned to use some of his childhood drawings for the cover of an oldies album he had begun in 1973, but when he put that on hold to record Walls and Bridges, he decided to use the artwork already in production. There is a series of photos of John’s face with different expressions. The front cover contained two flaps which, when folded, created several interchangeable "Lennon faces", some of them silly. #thebeatles #johnlennon #johnonolennon #thelostweekend #tibh #sily #nowandforever #ourforeverhome #wallsandbridges #theseventies #1974 #whatevergetsyouthroughthenight #itsalright #drwinstonoboogie #9dream #anapplerecord #solorecord #apple #ringostarr #eltonjohn #harrynilsson #olddirtroad #whatyougot #beefjerky #peaceandlove
