    Hi Tone very glad you've been sent this too. Although I've got the Imagine and Plastic Ono Band deluxe sets I don't own the Mind Games album and always believed it to be one of the lesser albums in the canon, but seeing Andrew's video last week persuaded me to place an order for it with my local independent retailer in Brentwood, Essex, so the strategy of sending copies to You Tubers such as yourself and Andrew not only rewards your loyal fandom but is also an effective way of putting across to "waverers" like me what you're getting for your £s here. If I don't want further analysis of the content itself I can always come back to your video once I've got my own copy and formed my own thoughts. Keep up the good work, all the best

    Glad to see that you have an advance copy. You thoroughly deserve if for all of the hard work that you put in to keep us all informed and entertained. Your channel is a 'must watch' here.
    I will be getting the 6 CD, 2 bluray set and the additional book too. I will probably also be getting the maps of Liverpool and Tokyo. We were lucky enough to visit Japan earlier this year, so this will be a nice addition to our holiday memories. There were quite a few places in Tokyo and Japan with Beatles connections that we were able to take in such as the Budokan, Tokyo Dome, and Hiroshima (we got to stand in George's footsteps by the Peace Bell).
    Thank you for the unboxing, that has whetted my appetite for 12th July. Look forward to your review of the music too.
    I think that this is going to be a very special set. The album is perhaps the first one that I remember being released when I was in a position to actually go out under my own steam and buy.
    Never sure why it seems to get some negativity. I have always liked the album and from what I have heard from the promo files released so far we are in for a real treat with the various mixes and additional hidden tracks.
    Enjoy your time listening in advance. I am very jealous!

    i have listened to the album disc and the mix is lovely. The disc has to be switched off manually at the end i.e The Nutopian National Anthem never ends. The disc carries on spinning and does not shut off automatically, at least on my portable CD player. I am delighted the album is being presented in this light as it proves how underrated the album has been held over the years.

A little disappointed the bonus tracks I believe can only be heard via blueray which I do not have, but I have lived without them nearly 65 years so what you've never had etc. Looking forward to the set, after a few listens, will rip them to my Brennan B2 along with the other 16k plus tracks to play at random.

I recently bought the Bowie box rock n roll Star £150 for 5 cds 1 blu-ray and a book, Mind games is 6CDs 2 Blu rays and a book £130 £20 less and more content , so at todays prices it's still decent value I think.

      sounds like you dont really understand the concept of the Ultimate mixes series. That is the whole point, to give different mixes of the songs on the album. nothing to do with squeezing every configuration for money. The Lennon estate has more money than they could spend in 1,000 lifetimes. however I agree that this sort of set is really only for hard-core fans, if you think you'd never play them the 2 Cd option is the right one for you Bob.

    Mind games was one if the first albums i ever bought. I always thought ut was one of his better albums. I like this more than "Walls and bridges" It was especially an improvement from "Some time in New York City" Songs like "Mind games" "Out the blue" "Intuition" and "Tight A$" are very good songs. I also like the other tracks. I am surprised it didn`t do better commercially. It only got to no.13 in the U.K. and no.9 in the U.S. It had deserved to be a top three album in both the UK and US.

      I`ve never liked his Rock and roll album either. I think Johns voice is shot, and many of the numbers are overproduced. A lot of John fans love Rock and roll, but that is probably my least favorite John album.
      And i`m not counting those silly albums he did in 1969 with Yoko. The wedding album etc. I don`t consider that to be a proper album anyway.
      As far as i am concerned "John Lennon/Plastic Ono band" is John Lennons first solo album. I also love "Double fantasy"
      John wrote some beautiful numbers for that album, and he even revisited the Beatles with "Woman" who sounds like a Beatles song to my ears.
      Yokos songs on "Double fantasy" are also quite good. I think "Imagine" is his best album. "John Lennon/Plastic One band" is the next best, while "Double fantasty" is his third best album. "Mind games" is his fourth best album to me.
