A lot of the 60's British bands owe their careers to black American artists from the 50's and 60's that sang and played blues and R&B and jazz... including The Beatles, The Rolling Stones, The Who, The Yardbirds, Led Zeppelin, Cream, Pink Floyd, etc... John Lennon was a fan of the Ben E. King song and covered it in his lifetime... In the early 60's, these iconic British bands used to open for American artists like Little Richard, Chuck Berry, Bo Diddley... when they came to tour the UK.

The album was released in 1975. It should have been released in 1973, but the producer Phil Spector disappeared with the tapes and kept them for 18 months. He was at his most paranoid at this time. He even phoned John Lennon during this time In a conspiratorial state of mind fearing that Richard Nixon and the CIA were out to get him. Eventually the tapes were returned and John Lennon finished recording the album. If you notice John Lennon winking at the beginning of the film, this is because he was being interviewed by Bob Harris of the BBC 2 music programme The Old Grey Whistle Test. John Lennon invited him to stay while the track was being recorded and gave a wink to the viewers.

John Lennon was a really humble man. A friend of mine is the founder member of a Brazilian fanclub of The Beatles, called Revolution, that was found in the 60's. He met John in in NYC in 1980, he stood in front of Dakota building, and gave the brazilian version of the LP "A Hard Day's Night" to the gatekeeper, to give to John. On the other day he saw John and said: "Hi, I gave the LP to you". They chatted for, 10/15 minutes and John told that he would make a World Tour in 1981. After it, he also said: "When I come back from the tour, I will call the other 3, and let's see what we can do." He also asked him which Beatles song he liked the most. He said he didn't have a specific one. But he kept insisting. He said that the first Beatles song he had heard was "She Loves You". And he asked why: "No reason". After about 10, 15 days (John had the address card) a gold record of "She Loves You" arrived at the hotel with a note from Fred Seaman, John's secretary: "Marco, John asked me to send you this record because it will be better in your hands than in his."

This version of ‘Stand By Me’ came out in the early to mid 70’s (not sure of the exact year) on Lennon’s solo album called ‘Rock and Roll’. It’s all of the songs that The Beatles, and The Silver Beatles before, The Quarrymen before them played when Lennon and rest of the lads were teens. So this was a very sentimental album for John.

Ben E King's version is such a classic that you think no one should even try to cover it. But then I heard John's version and I just love it so much. Another song like that is "I Will Always Love You" by Dolly Parton/Whitney Houston. It was kind of sad that so many people thought it originated with Whitney. Dolly handled it with class. She could have garnered a lot of publicity for herself by making more of the public aware that she wrote it. I feel like she took a step back and just let Whitney shine. It's fun seeing the reactions to finding Dolly's version. Just saw a a great duet you should check out. Olivia Newton John singing "Jolene" with Dolly Parton. From the clip, it sounds like Olivia may have done a duets project. May find some other treasures by going down that rabbit hole.

This song comes from what I consider one of Lennon's best post-Beatles albums. I bought it when it first came out, in vinyl, of course. If you want to top off Black History Month by learning a little about a treasured old school American artist - an original Woodstock performer - look up music by one of my idols: the late Richie Havens. He also covered a Beatles song or two, but his folk rock is truly iconic.

This is from his album Rock’n’roll, featuring only covers of songs John loved. The album had a troubled path to completion, since the producer, Phil Spector, was in the midst of some sort of paranoid mental breakdown: At a late stage, he took the master tapes and refused to part with them. It wasn’t until much later that John was able to retrieve the tapes and finish the album. The irony of the video is John was dating May Pang at the time, during what he later referred to as his ”lost weekend”, but really wasn’t any different than any other relationship. (He and Yoko were separated: Yoko had thrown him out, which winded up being an 18 month pause in their marriage, between mid-1973 to early 1975).

Growing up in the 70's on Fire Island I worked in a small grocery store. Yoko stopped in maybe 3 or 4 times that I remember picked up some stuff on her way to her rental house. Unfortunately John was never with her. She was pretty cool. EDIT: oh yeah I almost forgot. Old and In the Way. Wild Horses, Catfish John, Midnight Moonlight...

John sings the hell out of it. His voice is just perfect.

You should check out Julian Lennon, John's son from his first marriage and the subject of the song Hey Jude. His biggest song is It's Much Too Late For Goodbye.

What makes Lennon’s cover so perfect is that he recorded it during a painful time in his life, the so-called Lost Weekend. Separated from Yoko, drinking/taking drugs heavily and apparently quite miserable, so you really hear the pain and emotion in the way he ‘screams’ the vocal - he means it, he wants help, be it from Yoko, his sort of girlfriend May Pang (weird relationship!) or love from the audience … as he wasn’t selling too well, either. You can also see his trademark defensive humour at play in the performance, taken from the British ‘Old Grey Whistle Test’ programme (he also did a great performance of Slippin’ and Slidin’) and his insecurities at the bum notes he hits singling, “tumble and fall”. Such a complicated man, so interesting and, not perfect, but my favourite artist ever!! ❤

I love Ben E. King’s version. This was a very nice sound from Lennon. His videos are always so heartwarming. ❤

I've always liked this version by John. It was off his Rock 'n' Roll album released in early 1975. An album of covers of songs from the late 50's and early 60's.

This made my day. Thank you! The Beatles always had great love and respect for black musicians dating back to their earliest days. They refused to perform in front of segregated audiences in the 1960s. John Lennon really makes this song his own. The original is probably the best version, but John’s version is pretty damn good. He once said “a good song is a good song. You can jazz it up, but if the song is there, it works”. I got one that I think you both will really love and it’s “Coming Up” by Paul McCartney. The song and video are great.

John Lennon nailed this song! Try some Beatles songs from the Ed Sullivan Show February 1964.

I love John Lennon, and I think he was a musical genius. I didn't care for this remake. I bought a tape of his songs that came out in 1986, which had this song. You really should listen to "Jealous Guy." That's the song I couldn't live without when it got some airplay back then.

It's interesting that you did a U2 Joshua tree song and John Lennon stand by me on the same day. On the Joshua tree tour in 87-88 there was a few different ways that U2 would open the concert. One of them was to have John Lennon stand by me playing over the sound system and U2 would join in halfway through the song and finish as the opening song to the concert. I saw them do it this way and also saw them do it two other ways. The other two ways to was to open with where the streets have name and another was to have Jimi Hendrix Star spangled banner playing and they would open into bullet the blue sky off of Joshua tree.
