The Spindle: Plastic Ono Band: Cold Turkey b/w Don't Worry Kyoko (Mummy's Only Looking For A Hand In The Snow)

Yoko haters f**k off: Marc and John put the needle down on Plastic Ono Band's 1969 single, featuring "some of the best guitar [John Lennon] ever played—bone rattling, Flipper-esque" and proto-Krautrock boogies. About The Spindle: The 7-inch record isn’t just a format—it’s an art form. On each episode of The Spindle podcast, music writer Marc Masters (Pitchfork, The Wire, Bandcamp) and music historian (and music maker) John Howarddive into a great 7-inch, dissecting its background, impact, and the reasons why it stands out as a small plastic piece of music history.
