Yoko Ono is a Japanese artist, musician, and peace activist. Born on February 18, 1933 in Tokyo, Japan, she is widely known as the wife of John Lennon from 1969 until his death in 1980. Yoko Ono is also the mother of Sean Lennon and was previously married to Toshi Ichiyanagi from 1956 to 1962.

With her unique artistic style and powerful message of peace, Yoko Ono has made a significant impact on the art world. Her work spans various mediums including music, visual arts, and performance art. As an influential figure in the avant-garde movement, she has inspired countless artists around the globe.

Yoko Ono's music can be described as experimental and boundary-pushing. She has collaborated with notable musicians such as John Cale and Ringo Starr. Some similar artists who share her innovative spirit include Laurie Anderson, Nico, Scott Walker, and Robert Wyatt.

This long-overdue vinyl reissue of Yoko Ono's seminal, but massively under-appreciated Plastic Ono Band has all the makings of a classic rock nostalgia trip: Ono, John Lennon, Ringo Starr, Klaus Voorman and free-jazz legend Ornette Coleman. All the pieces are here to stir up a dangerous amount of nostalgia. But once the needle drops, the record achieves something exactly perpendicular to nostalgia.Released in 1971, the album not only influenced the approach of other musicians for decades, it also sounds absolutely modern 44 years out, eternally fresh despite the forward march of time. Yoko Ono/Plastic Ono Band not only predicted the intersection of the avant-garde and rock that would take place in the second half of that decade, the album would sound right at home at where that intersection is happening today.
