John Lennon's discography is to be remastered and packaged together in a deluxe vinyl offering.
His eight solo (studio) LP, all out of print in the UK, have been remastered from their original analogue masters by "Yoko Ono and a team of engineers, led by Allan Rouse at Abbey Road Studios in London and by George Marino at Avatar Studios in New York".

The set will be released on 8 June 8 by Universal Music Catalogue, and separately on 21 August. You can pre-order it on Amazon now.
The boxset was originally released on CD and digital download in 2010 to mark Lennon's 70th birthday.
Included in the set are: John Lennon/Plastic Ono Band (1970), Imagine (1971), Some Time In New York City [2LP] (1972), Mind Games (1973), Walls and Bridges (1974), Rock ‘n’ Roll (1975), Double Fantasy (1980) and Milk and Honey (1984).
