John Lennon made a lot of records. But only one got seized by authorities, hidden inside plain brown paper bags, and featured him and Yoko Ono standing completely naked on the cover.
Was it a publicity stunt? A love letter? A piece of avant-garde art? Or the sound of a Beatle blowing up his old life in real time?
One night in 1968, while Cynthia Lennon was away, John invited Yoko Ono to his home. They spent the night making strange tape-loop music, finished an album before dawn, and began a relationship that would change rock history forever. A few months later they stripped naked in Ringo Starr's basement, set a camera timer, and created one of the most controversial album covers ever released.
The music baffled critics. The cover outraged authorities. The public mostly ignored it. Yet this strange little record marked the beginning of John-and-Yoko—the most famous, argued-over, and mythologized love story in rock and roll.
