Live in New York City (John Lennon album)
''Live in New York City'' is a posthumous live album by English rock musician John Lennon. It was prepared under the supervision of his widow, Yoko Ono, and released in 1986 as his second official live album, the first being ''Live Peace in Toronto 1969''.
==Performances==
Recorded on 30 August 1972 at Madison Square Garden in New York City, Lennon performed two shows, one in the afternoon and one in the evening, to raise money for children with mental challenges at friend Geraldo Rivera's request. Rivera introduces Lennon and Ono at the beginning of the album, and he is referenced in Lennon's impromptu revised lyrics in the opening song, "New York City."
The benefit concerts, billed as One to One, also featured other performers in addition to Lennon, including Stevie Wonder, Roberta Flack, Melanie Safka and Sha-Na-Na, although their performances are not included on this album, nor on the simultaneous video release.
''Live in New York City'' captures John Lennon's last full-length concert performance, coming right after the release of ''Some Time in New York City''. Backing Lennon and Ono were Elephant's Memory, who had served as Lennon and Ono's backing band on ''Some Time in New York City''. Although the material Lennon performed was largely drawn from his three most recent albums of the period (''John Lennon/Plastic Ono Band'', ''Imagine'' and ''Some Time in New York City''), he also included in the setlist his Beatles hit "Come Together" and paid tribute to Elvis Presley with "Hound Dog" before leading the audience in a singalong of "Give Peace a Chance". "Come Together", originally in the key of D minor, was performed in E minor.
