Gimme Some Truth

Capitol and Universal Music will release a new John Lennon collection in October called "Gimme Some Truth" which features newly remixed audio, and, in deluxe form, 5.1 surround sound versions of 36 tracks. The 2 CD and 1 BluRay deluxe comes with a 124 page book, with rare photos and notes from John, Yoko and more; a foldout 2 sided poster, 2 postcards and a "Gimme Some Truth" bumper sticker.

The BluRay features all 36 tracks in hi-res stereo 96/24 PCM, new 5.1 surround mixes and Dolby Atmos. These new mixes echo the approach for the 2018 "Imagine" reissue. Like "Imagine", the songs on "Gimme Some Truth" have been mixed and engineered by Paul Hicks, with assistance by engineer Sam Gannon. The songs were completely remixed from scratch, using brand new transfers of the original multi tracks, cleaned up to the highest possible sonic quality. After weeks of painstaking preparation, the final mixes and effects were completed using only vintage analog equipment and effects at Henson Recording Studios in Los Angeles, and then mastered in analog at Abbey Road Studios by Alex Wharton in order to ensure the most beautiful and authentic sound quality possible.

The 2 CD set comes in a gatefold card sleeve, which slots into an outer slipcase. the single CD edition is in a gatefold card sleeve, but no slipcase. The 4 LP vinyl set comes in a lift off lid box and includes an 8 page booklet, a fold out double sided poster, 2 post cards and the "Gimme Some Truth" bumper sticker.

"Gimme Some Truth" will be released this year on the now traditional date for Lennon related releases, October 9th, 2020. This date is John and Sean Lennon’s birthday.
