WHO ARE THE Plastic Ono Band?
Plastic Ono Band was a concept of Yoko’s - an imaginary band. A conceptual group which exists only in the mind. You’re in it. Everybody’s in the Plastic Ono Band. We’re all members of the Plastic Ono Band. We’re all members of the conceptual
Utopia.
- John Lennon
“The concept of Plastic Ono Band was ‘the message is the music’. So everyone on the recording is in it, everyone listening to the recording is in it, everyone who sings the song is in it, you’re in it and everyone in the world is in it – making
Plastic Ono Band the most musical and imaginative group in the world.”
- Yoko Ono Lennon
