Lennon Legend DVD (Released separately, November 2003)

  1. "Imagine"
    1. A brand new transfer, taken from a first-generation 35mm inter-negative of the original 16mm Imagine film negative. Restored and remastered for the very first time in a stunning new digital transfer. Directed by John & Yoko, this was originally filmed on 22 July 1971, and is now seen with its full original intro sequence.
  2. "Instant Karma!"
    1. John & The Plastic Ono Band, filmed for BBC 1's "Top of the Pops" on 11 February 1970.
    1. This version has never before been commercially released. It is a longer audio version than the original single version, containing extra choruses at the end.
  3. "Mother"
    1. A brand new video featuring a journey through emotive stills from John's life. This is the full album version of the song; the CD compilation contains only the single edit.
  4. "Jealous Guy"
    1. A new video taken from footage of John recording "Jealous Guy" in the studio at Tittenhurst Park Studios in June 1971, and the "Jealous Guy" driving and rowing sequences (filmed on 21 July 1971) used in John & Yoko's "Imagine" film.
  5. "Power to the People"
    1. An extended version of John & Yoko's original video, including John & Yoko on the Oz march protests on 11 August 1971.
  6. "Cold Turkey"
    1. A new video, taken from 16mm film performance footage of John & ‘The Plastic Ono Elephant's Memory Band’ live onstage in New York in Madison Square Garden on 30 August 1972, and John & Yoko leaving Marylebone Magistrates’ Court in London after his November 1968 cannabis conviction. It also features an excerpt from John's short film "Freedom".
  7. "Love"
    1. A new video, featuring footage of John and Yoko from 26 November 1980 at the Sperone Gallery in New York and from the beach at South Beach, Staten Island, New York in 1971.
  8. "Mind Games"
    1. A new video. On 15 November 1974 a BBC film crew, directed by John, spent a day with him around Central Park and various other locations in New York, to make a video for "Whatever Gets You Through The Night". The video was never broadcast, but a small amount of the footage emerged as a very short edit for “#9 Dream” in February 1975. We unearthed all the original camera film reels from the day, which were very aged and damaged from decay and scratching, cleaned them up, and discovered incredibly charismatic footage of John, obviously greatly enjoying himself on a sunny day out.
  9. "Whatever Gets You Thru the Night"
    1. A restored and extended version of the original John Kanemaker animation video, based on John's drawings and sketches.
  10. "#9 Dream"
    1. A new video, made from the films "Smile" and "Two Virgins" (August 1968) and footage shot for the "Imagine" film in 1971.
  11. "Stand By Me"
    1. A new video, featuring John's performance, filmed at The Hit Factory in New York on 18 March 1975 (subsequently licensed to the BBC's “Old Grey Whistle Test”), and footage of John & Yoko together, most of it previously unseen.
    1. This is a longer version of the original album version, with the end fade-out removed.
  12. "(Just Like) Starting Over"
