Legacy
On 30 August 1972, John and Yoko performed two charity shows at Madison Square Garden for the mentally challenged at friend Geraldo Rivera's request; the event was called, One To One, and New York mayor John Lindsay declared the date "One To One Day". Both performances were filmed and recorded, with the evening show broadcast on ABC Television, and the earlier matineé show compiled for release as the 1986 live album and video, Live In New York City. It proved to be Lennon's last full live concert.
Some Time In New York City was remixed, remastered and reissued in November 2005 as a single CD, removing, in the process, several of the "Live Jam" cuts, while adding on "Happy Xmas (War Is Over)" and "Listen, The Snow Is Falling". In the remixed and remastered release of 2005, "John Sinclair" and "Attica State" were not remixed. In 2010, the album was digitally remastered in its original format.
