John Lennon Anthology is a four-CD box set of home demos, studio outtakes and other previously unreleased material recorded by John Lennon over the course of his solo career from " Give Peace a Chance " in 1969 up until the 1980 sessions for Double Fantasy and Milk and Honey .

The anthology was divided by its compiler and co-producer, Yoko Ono , into four discs representing four eras in Lennon's solo career: "Ascot", "New York City", "The Lost Weekend" and "Dakota". [5]

John Lennon Anthology reached number 62 in the United Kingdom and number 99 in the United States, where it went gold. [6]

A one-disc distillation of the highlights of the box set was released as Wonsaponatime . Many of the tracks were edited down from their versions on John Lennon Anthology . Wonsaponatime failed to reach the US charts but peaked at number 76 in the UK. [6]
