Yoko Ono - Approximately Infinite Universe

Part of the Yoko Ono reissue project from Secretly Canadian and Chimera Music

Remastered from the original tapes

Painstakingly reproduced vinyl packaging and remastered audio

The second batch of Yoko Ono reissues from Secretly Canadian, in partnership with Chimera Music, includes 1971's Fly, 1973's Approximately Infinite Universe, and 1973's Feeling The Space.

There's a fury at the core of Yoko Onos 1973 rock opus Approximately Infinite Universe that was not apparent on previously recorded efforts. Ono has always been a master of turning pain and sadness into art, but here, there's a clenched-fist intensity that sets it apart in her deep, unparalleled catalog.

There are moments here that absolutely rival Jersey legends the E Street Band, though of course Ono's vision leads her band down darker, more mystical paths than the E Street Band ever dared tread. Approximately Infinite Universe is an essential and progressive piece of Ono's output, both in the advancements she made as a songwriter/conceptualist, and as a solidified statement of her staunch feminist role within the very male-dominated mainstream rock ghetto of the mid-1970s.
