Give Peace a Chance by the Plastic Ono Band is today’s featured song.
On this day in 1969, The Plastic Ono Band (John Lennon and Yoko Ono) recorded their anti-war anthem, “Give Peace a Chance” at Montreal’s Queen Elizabeth Hotel. The song, which became Lennon’s first solo release while he was still with The Beatles, featured several high-profile guests, including Timothy Leary and Petula Clark (backing vocals) and Tom Smothers (of the Smothers Brothers) on acoustic guitar.
