"John Lennon/Plastic Ono Band is the debut solo album by English musician John Lennon. It was released in 1970, after Lennon had issued three experimental albums with Yoko Ono and Live Peace in Toronto 1969, a live performance in Toronto credited to the Plastic Ono Band. ... In July 1970, Lennon started to record demos of songs he wrote that would show up on John Lennon/Plastic Ono Band, and on one particular day, the 26th, Lennon recorded numerous demos of his song 'God', which includes the line 'I don't believe in Beatles'. Lennon's therapy was never completed due to the expiry of his US visa. ... Throughout the album Lennon touches on many personal issues: his abandonment by his parents, in 'Mother'; the means by which young people are made into soldiers, in 'Working Class Hero'; a reminder that, despite his rage and pain, Lennon still embraces 'Love'; and 'God', a renunciation of external saviours. ..."
