Rock 'N' Roll

Rock 'n' Roll is the fifth and final solo album by the English musician John Lennon. Released in February 1975, it is a covers album of rock and roll songs from the late 1950s and early 1960s. Recording the album was troubled and spanned an entire year: Phil Spector produced sessions in October 1973 at A&M Studios, and Lennon produced sessions in October 1974 at the Record Plant. Lennon was being sued by Morris Levy over copyright infringement over one line in his Beatles song "Come Together". As part of an agreement, Lennon had to include three Levy-owned songs on Rock 'n' Roll. Spector disappeared with the session recordings and was subsequently involved in a motor accident, leaving the album's tracks unrecoverable until the beginning of the Walls and Bridges sessions. With Walls and Bridges coming out first, featuring one Levy-owned song, Levy sued Lennon expecting to see Lennon's Rock 'n' Roll album. The album reached number 6 in both the United Kingdom and the United States, later being certified Gold in both countries. It was supported by the single "Stand by Me", which peaked at number 20 in the US, and 30 in the UK.
