John Lennon Estate To Release Staggeringly Expensive $2599.99 ‘Mind Games’ Box

Details of the upcoming John Lennon ‘Mind Games’ reissue have been revealed with a gobsmacking $AU2599.99 box set to be released as part of the project.

For your hard-earned bucks you will purchase two Limited Edition Reproduction Artworks by John Lennon & Yoko Ono with Certificates of Authenticity as well as a Hologram-Engraved EP, 9LPs (including 2 Zoetrope Picture Discs), 6CDs, 2 Blu-Rays, 2 Books, 4 posters, 4 postcards, 2 maps, 3 badges, Word Puzzle, Bespoke I-Ching Coins, Nutopian Flag, Nutopian Seal Stamp and Nutopian Embassy replica plaque.

Even the 6CD box will retail for $360 in Australia. That is considerably more expensive than the previous Lennon boxes for ‘Imagine’, ‘John Lennon/Plastic Ono Band’ and ‘Gimme Some Truth’ that were all considerably under $200. (The 6CD Imagine in 2018 was under $120).

What is missing from the track listing is Lennon’s version of ‘I’m The Greatest’ which was included on the recent Mind Games Record Store Day 12 inch. The RSD release was issued as a teaser to the box. Lennon’s version has been previously released on 1998 John Lennon Anthology box. Lennon wrote the song for Ringo Starr. Ringo’s version was included on his 1973 ‘Ringo’ album.
