Lozarhythm Of The Day:
John Lennon and the Plastic Ono Band - Cold Turkey (Take 1 / Out-take / Ultimate Mix) (recorded 25 and 28 October 1969, Abbey Rd 3 and Trident, London)
John Lennon (vocal, ac gtr, el gtr, el pno) and the Plastic Ono Band: Eric Clapton (el gtr), Klaus Voorman (bass), Ringo Starr (drums)
This rather harrowing song dates from Lennon and Yoko Ono's as well as Clapton's well documented heroin addictions and John Lennon's primal therapy sessions.
Released on the box set of the first album that I have been playing, this version is not the take used for the Top Twenty single, but a rather looser earlier take. Wikipedia reports that "according to Peter Brown in his book The Love You Make, the song was written in a "creative outburst" following Lennon and Yoko Ono going "cold turkey" from their brief heroin addictions. However, Lennon's personal assistant in the late 1970s, Fred Seaman, claimed otherwise, stating that Lennon confided in him that the song was actually about a severe case of food poisoning suffered by John and Yoko after eating Christmas leftovers "cold turkey". Lennon thought people would laugh at him if they knew the truth about the song's origin, so he said it was inspired by his recent heroin withdrawal. Brown states that Lennon presented the song to Paul McCartney as a potential single by The Beatles, as they were finishing recording for their Abbey Road album, but it was refused and eventually released as a Plastic Ono Band single with sole writing credits to him.
