The Beatles: John Lennon listening party featuring Ringo Starr and Yoko Ono announced

It was over 50 years that The Beatles broke up and John Lennon released his iconic debut solo album, John Lennon/Plastic Ono Band. Now as The Ultimate Mixes of the record are released, a special listening party has been announced for this Saturday with a whole host of guests. The interactive Twitter event will include the participation of The Beatles drummer Sir Ringo Starr, Yoko Ono and Sean Ono Lennon.

Also contributing will be The John Lennon Estate, The George Harrison Estate, original Plastic Ono Band bassist and artist Klaus Voormann and drummer Alan White.

Plus Abbey Road recording engineer John Leckie, John and Yoko’s personal assistant Dan Richter and the new Ultimate Mixes’ engineer Paul Hicks and producer Simon Hilton.

The Twitter Listening Party will be hosted by Tim Burgess of the Charlatans and take place on Saturday April 24 at 6pm BST.

While the hashtag for the one-off event will be #TimsTwitterListeningParty and after the event, the newly launched Twitter Spaces will host a special discussion.
