On this day, January 27, 1984, Milk and Honey, the sixth album by John Lennon and Yoko Ono, was released in the United States. The album was a posthumous release for Lennon, featuring tracks he recorded in 1980 during the sessions for Double Fantasy.

Milk and Honey reached #11 on the Billboard 200, offering a poignant and bittersweet listening experience for fans. It included memorable tracks like Lennon’s Nobody Told Me and Ono’s You're the One. The album provided a deeper glimpse into the creative partnership between Lennon and Ono, blending optimism and introspection.

Fun Fact: The single Nobody Told Me was initially written by Lennon for Ringo Starr but was recorded by Lennon himself during the Double Fantasy sessions. It became a Top 10 hit in both the US and UK.

Trivia Question: What was the name of John Lennon’s first solo album, released in 1970, which included the song Mother?
