Today, Jack Douglas is back with us once again to talk to us about working with John Lennon and Yoko Ono to produce <strong>John Lennon\u2019s hit song \u201cImagine\u201d.\u00a0<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>About Jack Douglas<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Jack began his career in music as a folk musician and songwriter. He travelled to England and played in multiple different bands before moving to New York. In New York, he attended the Institute of Audio Research, and was a member of the first graduating class! His first professional gig was as a janitor at the Record Plant in New York. From this position, he worked his way up to the desk as an engineer and participated in projects by <strong>Miles David, The James Gang, Alice Cooper, and Cheap Trick.\u00a0<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">He later became a staff engineer at Record Plant in New York City, <strong>Jack worked with countless incredible artists, including Patti Smith, Blue \u00d6yster Cult, The New York Dolls, Aerosmith, and John Lennon.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>John Lennon\u2019s \u201cImagine\u201d<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><strong>In 1971, Jack Douglas had the opportunity to engineer John Lennon\u2019s <i>Imagine<\/i><\/strong><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong> album.<\/strong> Jack and Lennon worked together very well, forming a close bond, and the two went on to work together for the rest of Lennon\u2019s life.

In fact, the piano, vocals, and strings were all re-recorded once Lennon arrived in New York. Lennon himself played the piano for this track, Klaus Voormann played bass, and Alan White was on the drums. The piano and vocals were both recorded on the 7-foot Steinway piano in Studio B at the Record Plant, as Lennon loved to play on this specific piano.\u00a0 \u201cImagine\u201d also had the same arranger as \u201cHow Do You Sleep?\u201d and \u201cHappy Christmas\u201d.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>Lennon co-wrote this song with Yoko Ono.<\/strong> Unfortunately, at the time that the song was released, she was not attributed any of the co-writing credit. However, Jack tells us that if you knew Ono, and knew the way she spoke and the way she wrote, it is actually very obvious that she wrote a large portion of the lyrics for this song. He says that lines like \u201cimagine no religion\u201d are characteristic of Yoko Ono\u2019s writing style and were very similar to the style of writing she used in her poetry. At the time, this was not realized by many people, but people can see it now. In 2017, Yoko Ono received official co-writing credit on the song, which Jack feels is very well-deserved.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-43443 size-full lazyload\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" data-src=\"https:\/\/producelikeapro.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/john-lennon-imagine2.jpg\" alt=\"John Lennon &amp; Yoko Ono\" width=\"1080\" height=\"744\" data-sizes=\"auto\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/producelikeapro.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/john-lennon-imagine2.jpg 1080w, https:\/\/producelikeapro.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/john-lennon-imagine2-600x413.jpg 600w, https:\/\/producelikeapro.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/john-lennon-imagine2-768x529.jpg 768w, https:\/\/producelikeapro.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/john-lennon-imagine2-80x55.jpg 80w, https:\/\/producelikeapro.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/john-lennon-imagine2-320x220.jpg 320w, https:\/\/producelikeapro.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/john-lennon-imagine2-247x170.jpg 247w, https:\/\/producelikeapro.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/john-lennon-imagine2-218x150.jpg 218w, https:\/\/producelikeapro.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/john-lennon-imagine2-770x530.jpg 770w, https:\/\/producelikeapro.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/john-lennon-imagine2-40x28.jpg 40w, https:\/\/producelikeapro.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/john-lennon-imagine2-160x110.jpg 160w, https:\/\/producelikeapro.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/john-lennon-imagine2-20x14.jpg 20w, https:\/\/producelikeapro.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/john-lennon-imagine2-640x441.jpg 640w, https:\/\/producelikeapro.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/john-lennon-imagine2-880x606.jpg 880w, https:\/\/producelikeapro.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/john-lennon-imagine2-494x340.jpg 494w, https:\/\/producelikeapro.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/john-lennon-imagine2-15x10.jpg 15w, https:\/\/producelikeapro.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/john-lennon-imagine2-435x300.jpg 435w, https:\/\/producelikeapro.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/john-lennon-imagine2-13x9.jpg 13w, https:\/\/producelikeapro.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/john-lennon-imagine2-385x265.jpg 385w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1080px) 100vw, 1080px\" \/><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Watching how Lennon and Ono worked together, on this song and others, was hard for Jack to understand. He says that Lennon took him aside once and told him he had to \u201cthink backwards\u201d in order to understand his and Ono\u2019s relationship. He said that Jack was thinking \u201ctoo Western\u201d to understand their relationship. Lennon trusted Jack, though, and trusted him to work with Yoko Ono, so Jack learned to adapt to her unique creative process. He told her once that he \u201cdidn\u2019t care if she got inside the piano and played it or sat at the stool\u201d, giving her the freedom to do whatever she needed to when she was working in the studio.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>SEE ALSO:<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/producelikeapro.com\/blog\/how-to-mix-vocals-like-a-pro\/\">How To Mix Vocals Like A Pro<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/producelikeapro.com\/blog\/home-studio-on-a-budget\/\">Home Studio On A Budget<\/a><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Jack notes that it is interesting how this song has become so iconic and famous, while the team working on it at the time had no idea how massive it would become.
