JOHN LENNON & YOKO ONO PERFORM 'INSTANT KARMA' IN PREVIOUSLY UNRELEASED VIDEO

John Lennon & Yoko Ono Perform ‘Instant Karma’ In Previously Unreleased Video

A previously unseen live video of John Lennon, Yoko Ono and The Plastic Ono Band performing “Instant Karma! (We All Shine On)” from 1972 has been released.

The clip was unveiled on the 53rd anniversary of the couple’s famous One to One Concerts at Madison Square Garden.

On Saturday, August 30, 1972, Lennon, Ono and the Plastic Ono Band headlined the historic One to One Benefit Concert at Madison Square Garden in New York City, backed by the NYC rock band Elephant’s Memory, and special guests.

The concert featured both afternoon and evening performances and raised more than $1.5 million to support children with intellectual and developmental disabilities, including the children from the Willowbrook State School in Staten Island.

The track is part of Power to the People, a new box set focusing on Lennon’s most politically charged era, which will be released on October 10, one day after what would have been his 85th birthday.

A 12-disc collection, Power to the People showcases Lennon’s early period in New York City alongside Ono and the Plastic Ono Band.
