A new compilation will be released on John Lennon's birthday on 9th October, titled 'Gimme Some Truth. The Ultimate Mixes'.
Handpicked by Lennon's widow, Yoko Ono and son, Sean Lennon, the collection features 36 songs on two CDs tht were remixed from scratch, "radically upgrading their sonic quality".
A deluxe edition of the box set includes an additional 124-page book and a Blu-ray featuring songs in various high-definition audio formats.
The box set is sequenced in a chronological order with stand-alone singles, 'Happy Xmas (War is Over) and 'Give Peace a Chance' rounding out the album.
You can listen to a remixed rendition of 'Instant Karma! (We All Shine On) 'and see the tracklist below.
"John was a brilliant man with a great sense of humour and understanding," Ono wrote in the accompanying book. "He believed in being truthful and that the power of the people will change the world. And it will. All of us have the responsibility to visualise a better world for ourselves and our children. The truth is what we create. It's in our hands."
The album is available for pre-order now.
