Wedding Album in Bloomington, MN

The third and last of
John Lennon
and
Yoko Ono
's experimental albums to be released within a one-year period,
Wedding Album
, like
Unfinished Music, No. 1: Two Virgins
, was in some ways more notable for its packaging than for its content. It came in a box containing a facsimile of the Lennons' wedding certificate and a photograph of a piece of wedding cake. The record itself contained two selections, one of which consisted of nearly 25 minutes of
's wailing, while the other, "John and Yoko," featured the two, one in each stereo speaker, calling out the other's name for more than 22 minutes. Employing such limited lyrics,
Lennon
is the more expressive,
Ono
the more penetrating. ~ William Ruhlmann
