John Lennon’s son, Sean Ono Lennon, is putting out his father’s life!
In an expansive box set that reexamines Lennon’s 1973 album Mind Games, it offers a entrancing sneak peek into the daily life of a home run by two cultural titans.
This limited-edition Ultimate Collection Super Deluxe box has the unique selling point of containing remixes produced by Sean himself along with a collection of puzzles, maps, replica art pieces, and a coffee table book.
The effect this package has is almost comical a partial aim that Sean was trying to achieve. “I feel like everything my dad did have a bit of humor,” the 49-year-old told PEOPLE magazine.
Sean recalled, “People who grew up with him in Liverpool say that he was the kind of guy who would make a joke even at a very difficult time.”
“So, humor was an important factor in this [project]. The initial concept for me was ‘mind games.’ What are mind games? They’re games of the mind!” he added.
Further elaborating the concept behind the project, he also told the outlet, “So, I thought we would play with people’s minds a little bit. We have illusions in there, we have some games, we have some hidden secret things. There are multiple layers to it.”
“There are all sorts of things that reflect the way they were thinking at the time — which was very cosmic, to put it mildly,” Sean Ono Lennon concluded.
