A few details have crossed the wires regarding the upcoming John Lennon reissue campaigns due for domestic release October 5.
The aforementioned track lists for the new Power to the People: The Hits compilation, the Gimme Some Truth box set and the bonus discs in the John Lennon Signature Box we wrote about a few weeks ago is accurate (although the discs in Gimme Some Truth are presented in a different order - the set kicks off with the "Roots" disc thought to be Disc 4 then continues in proper order from there). It should be noted, however, that the "Experience Edition" of Power to the People has a bonus DVD of all the videos to each song heard on the CD. Also, the "live jam" material has been properly reinstated back to Some Time in New York City, as a second disc to that reissue. Have a look at all the new packaging here, including the high-end "Box of Vision" project similar to the one commissioned for last year's Beatles remasters.
Thanks to Vintage Vinyl News for the tip about the Some Time live material, but we first found this story through the sadly-departed Paste magazine.
