Yes, its true - a new JOHN LENNON bootleg! Just when you thought the well had run dry, here comes another heapin' bucketful, sploshin' all over your shoes.

Its a 2-disc bootleg from Yellow Dog called "It's Gonna Be Alright", featuring more than two hours' worth of previously unheard stuff from the sessions for the 1970 "Plastic Ono Band" LP with John, Ringo, Klaus, and of course, PHIL SPECTOR. There are a few rough mixes, some rehearsals, and nice big chunks of session tapes. I don't know how these recordings got out at this point in time, but I'm sure glad they did. The sound quality is excellent - this really is some beautiful stuff, and a must-have for Lennon fans. And its very very cool to hear "Love" being rehearsed with Ringo and Klaus!

I'm sure that if you hunt around a bit, you can find it at a higher bitrate, but here it is as I downloaded it, at 128 kbps:

And many many thanks to the original uploader.

Yeah, excellent stuff. And from what I understand, there are two more new Lennon bootlegs coming out (if not already out).
