UNFINISHED MUSIC No.2: LIFE WITH THE LIONS is the second of three experimental albums of avant-garde music by John Lennon and Yoko Ono, released On 9th May 1969 on Zapple, a sub label of Apple. It was a successor to 1968's highly controversial Unfinished Music No. 1: Two Virgins, and was followed by the Wedding Album. The album, whose title is a play on words of the BBC Radio show Life With The Lyons, was recorded at Queen Charlotte's Hospital in London and live at Cambridge University, in November 1968 and March 1969, respectively. The Cambridge performance, to which Ono had been invited and to which she brought Lennon, was Lennon and Ono's second as a couple. John Lennon and Yoko Ono's second collaborative album consists of five tracks: all of side one is taken up by "Cambridge 1969", a live recording at Lady Mitchell Hall in Cambridge of Lennon playing an electric guitar backup to Ono's singing and screaming. Side two includes an a cappella rendering by Ono of "No Bed For Beatle John", which discusses the refusal of a hospital to give Lennon a bed so he could stay during his wife's troubled pregnancy. "Baby's Heartbeat", which is what it says it is. "Two Minutes Silence" in commemoration of Ono's miscarriage, which is also what it says it is, and "Radio Play", 12 minutes of a radio dial being turned back and forth to pick up random stations. If, as they suggested, their lives were their art, then this is, too. Maybe. The album was remastered in 1997. The album was reissued by Secretly Canadian on November 11, 2016 with bonus tracks and rare photos.
PERSONNEL: Yoko Ono – vocals, radio; John Lennon – vocals, guitar, feedback; John Tchicai – saxophone; John Stevens – percussion; Mal Evans – watch; John Ono Lennon II – heartbeat.
If Unfinished Music No.1: Two Virgins is the ecstatic, musique concrète first kiss shared between two of pop culture’s greatest lovers, then UNFINISHED MUSIC No.2: LIFE WITH THE LIONS is the sound of the pair validating their love as something impenetrable and timeless. It’s when we, the listener, begin to fully understand that the scope of their recording efforts was much more than a recording collaboration, and something closer to a performative documentary. By UNFINISHED MUSIC No.2: LIFE WITH THE LIONS’s release in May 1969, Yoko Ono and John Lennon had begun performing avant-garde music together publicly. The album cover photo was taken in the suite, with Ono in her hospital bed and Lennon in a sleeping bag made up on the floor next to her, both of them looking exhausted from the process. Likely, you’d be mindlessly doing something like flipping back forth on a radio dial until the punches of sound and static became a calming, lulling rhythm — anything to take your mind off things for a moment.
