I don’t think they would have released an album in 1970 as ‘Let It Be ‘ had finally come out. Enthused by the reaction, to the Rooftop concert, they played a few concerts in UK and US in late 1970 and early 1971, to ecstatic audiences, before retiring to Abbey Road to record the new album. As they had all written so many new songs, they decided to record a new double album … 6 songs each side as they were longer and due to George’s new standing within the group, following his Abbey Road songs, he got an (almost) equal share of songs on the album!
SIDE 1
1. Imagine
2. Dear Boy
3. What Is Life ?
4. It’s So Hard
5. Every Night
SIDE 2
3. It Don’t Come Easy
4. Tomorrow
6. Isolation
SIDE 3
2. Jealous Guy
4. Remember
5. Ram On
SIDE 4
1. Mother
2. Junk
3. Wah Wah
4. Oh My Love
5. I Dig Love
My Sweet Lord / Instant Karma had been a No1. hit earlier in the year.
After the album had been recorded, John told Paul, and then the rest of the band, that he and Yoko were going to live in NY and that he was leaving the group. The others realised that it was the right time to quit but went out on a high, performing a week of farewell concerts at the Royal Albert Hall in London, before returning to ‘The Cavern’ for one last concert!
They boys parted amicably with the album still No.1 on the charts, both sides of the Atlantic! Happy Xmas (War Is Over) / Another Day was their final single and became the 1971 Xmas No.1!
Six months later, The Rolling Stones brought out their own double album! (just always that little bit late) lol
